You are going to love it. The Maltese breed is just so sweet. :) . We have an adorable one. At 8 lbs, your little dog will be about 8 inches tall at the shoulder. The sizeof crate you want is medium... as if you get too small and the dog is not able to stand and walk around just a little, it tends to get stiff and crampy legs. We do crate ours when we leave the house. Our crate is large enough for her to move around in as well as have a small jar of water. For the bed..... we have an open bed for our dog... it is a small size but large enough for her to curl up in. Problem is.... she wants to curl up next to me. They are very affectionate... and you would do well to get a dog book about Maltese to learn about their personalities and dispositions. Congrats on your new addition. :))<br><b>References : </b><br> Hi Sara. You are going to love it. The Maltese breed is just so sweet. . We have an adorable one.

I would get a small crate, they only need room to stand up, turn around, and lay back down.<br><b>References : </b><br> Not very big.
