When people say they wrap their Maltese in rice paper, is that the rice paper we can buy at Asian market? The ones to make spring rolls?
Also, can a Maltese be kept on a long coat without having its fur wrapped?

Tissa, wrapping is normally done by those who show dogs. There are special wrapping papers cut to the right size that most purchase on line or at shows. It is to keep the hair from breaking. I think it unnecessary for a pet dog who will not be in competition. Usually a breeder starts a pup on this regime early on & they are accustomed to the feel & standing still while hair is being wrapped. Sometimes only parts of the hair are wrapped. So rest at ease, not something you need to worry about.
BTW: it is not the same as the paper to make spring rolls!
