Dale and Nicola have officially ranked in fourth place, leaving couples Allen & Chelsea, Kyle & Marie Christine and Gabby & Sven remaining. 

The two had a rather up-and-down journey during their run on Love Island Malta’s 1st season.

With a love triangle with bombshell Andriy, the couple eventually recouped and stayed together until the end of the show. 

What do you make of this ranking? And what do you think will be the rest of the ranking?

Love Island Malta Winner Will Win €20,000 Tonight

Love Island Malta Winner Will Win €20,000 Tonight
Jun 25 2023 Share

Today is the big day for Love Island Malta contestants and all the viewers who followed the programme.

And tonight’s finale will see one of the contestants winning a whopping €20,000 after being crowned Malta’s favourite. 

Of course, the big question is whether or not the victor will be sharing the prize with their couple. Contestants are normally asked whether they wish to do so. 

So far in the history of Love Island, contestants have always shared their prize with their significant other. But who knows, maybe Malta’s first season will see the winner break the chain.

Speculation aside, recent polls set up by MaltaDaily show Chelsea as being the most likely to win, with Sven in second and Allen in third. 

In terms of couples, Chelsea and Allen are also set to win. But here is the question for one last good measure – who do you think will win?

Celebrating The Maltese Hunting Dog

Celebrating The Maltese Hunting Dog
Jun 25 2023 Share

Hunting with dogs has been a strategy utilized by hunters and gatherers throughout human history. 

The domestication of dogs predates the emergence of agriculture, and Malta has its own unique hunting dog breed known as the Kelb tal-Kaċċa ta’ Malta.

The exact origins of the breed remain a mystery, but historical references suggest its presence on the Maltese islands for centuries. The breed’s characteristics resemble those of the Bracco Italiano or the French Braque of Saint Germain. 

With Malta’s history of conquests and regulated hunting practices, hunting became an exclusive privilege of the knights during the 16th century, further establishing the significance of hunting in Maltese culture.

The Kelb tal-Kaċċa ta’ Malta is well-adapted to the Maltese geography and climate. With its medium-sized body and short, smooth coat, it can withstand mild winters and harsh summers. 

The breed’s appearance includes large ears, a “Braque” type face, and a range of color shades from light lemon to dark orange patches over a white coat.

In recent years, the breed’s population has decreased due to the importation of foreign gun dog breeds. To address this concern, the Klabb Klieb tal-Kaċċa ta’ Malta was established in 2012 to raise awareness and safeguard the breed’s future. 

A genetic study confirmed the breed’s uniqueness and indigenous nature to the Maltese islands, leading to the compilation of a Stud Book to identify dogs with minimal genetic defects.

In June 2016, the Malta Canine Society organized a Double Championship event, showcasing the Kelb tal-Kaċċa ta’ Malta. This prestigious competition brought together 244 dogs from 59 different breeds.

International judges evaluated the breed, which was represented by dogs from 11 different gun dog breeds. The event served as a platform to promote and celebrate the indigenous hunting dogs of Malta.

The Malta Canine Society’s Championships provide a platform to recognize and celebrate the unique breed, the Kelb tal-Kaċċa ta’ Malta. Through these efforts, the society aims to safeguard the breed’s future and preserve the rich cultural heritage associated with hunting and dog breeding in Malta.
