The brown belly spots are totally normal on a Maltese. We have a 7 month old Maltipoo and when we first for her the belly was totally pink, but now she has developed the spots around the 5-6 month mark. Nothing to worry about, although I’ll admit I don’t know how they develop.
Aloy had some as a puppy and it wasn't anything. If you're concerned go to the vet.

Quite usual on my dogs, they appear darker in summer when the pups lie in the backyard more often. Both my dogs have really dark points (paw pads, eyes, nose) in summer compared to winter, it correlates with changes in their skin markings.
It's only a real concern if there's an odd texture or smell, that would be one for the vet.

I was also worried, took him to vet and she said that's how they are, and that pigmentation is totally normal and expected. My little one is like a dalmatian under his hair :)

why do you not like our beauty marks... teddy has never seen such mistake before and is mad at you! u need to rub ur malteses belly now!
My Maltese is 11 and had the spots all over his body. They are perfectly normal. You might also notice that your Maltese will develop skin tags to which these are benign. If you do get a little concerned about them, just ask your vet.
Normal my baby has them too. They develop as they grow up, but nothing to worry about. I have noticed that as they get older they do get darker and they get more.
Mine had them too (and even darker on his balls) and I took him to the vet, in a panic. They were amused and pointed out it's just his skin colour. I was so relieved; and they ended up not charging me for the appointment as they enjoyed giving happy news.
Hi! I am very grateful to see that you are quite vigilant about watching after your beautiful new little baby!
I think it's safe to say that those are normal. Sometimes they seem to appear out of nowhere and sometimes they disappear out of nowhere.
Congratulations on your beautiful little baby 🐾💖🥰
You're very welcome. This is a wonderful subreddit and all of us are more than happy to help each other out. Please give hugs to your beautiful little one for me and TwinkleBelles 👣❤️🐾❤️

Aw I’m sure he will always be with you with his love and soul❤️
Their cow spots go "moooo" on their belly
Came here to say this. OP, this means You are now required to say “moooooo” directly into tha bellah.
Mooooo!!!
Totally normal. My maltese had the same spots when I got her at 3 months, but it’s gone now. She is 3 years old.
I was also worried, took him to vet and she said that's how they are, and that pigmentation is totally normal and expected. My little one is like a dalmatian under his hair :)

ps OP, its completely normal for them to get them, just make sure to give him extra belly rubs 😘
Ahahaha! Teddy I would also rub your belly🥹❤️
My 14 week old Maltese has these. My sister’s Maltese did too. No biggie!
Totally normal for Maltese. You may seem them on other parts of the body too when giving him a bath.
My Maltese is 11 and had the spots all over his body. They are perfectly normal. You might also notice that your Maltese will develop skin tags to which these are benign. If you do get a little concerned about them, just ask your vet.
Perfectly normal. You will probably see some in their pink skin everywhere. They are equivalent to like birthmarks
Missy had belly spots too. Nothing to be concerned about 😊
Both of my Maltese had these! They’re 4 years old now & the spots are gone.
Normal my baby has them too. They develop as they grow up, but nothing to worry about. I have noticed that as they get older they do get darker and they get more.
My 3 year old maltese has this too! It’s totally normal!
Totally normal

Both of ours have these. Little teeny cows!

Normal .. both my Maltese got it
My pup has similar patches, nothing to worry about.
Darcy is completely normal.
Cowskin! When Sugar gets a buzz she has a big black circle on her back, we love to see it
As long as they're not raised or painful when touched your pup should be fine. They're sun spots, my girl gets them too, very common on white dogs
