Questions & Answers
Maltipoos are a popular mix between the Maltese and the Poodle. They are known for being loyal and affectionate, making them great companions. Fun facts about Maltipoos include: they are hypoallergenic, so those with allergies can enjoy them; they are particularly sociable, loving to be around others; their coats are usually curly or wavy and can range in color; they typically have a lifespan of between 12 and 15 years; and they don't require a lot of exercise, making them great for apartment living.
Maltipoos are known to be a hypoallergenic breed of dog, which means they carry minimal to no dander that may cause some people with allergies to show symptoms. They are even known to be a low-shedding breed, meaning they produce less hair, saliva, urine and dander, further reducing sensitivity in people with allergies. However, it is always important to note that no dog is 100% hypoallergenic, and ultimately it will come down to a person's individual allergic reaction that can vary between dog breeds.
Given their small size and specialized digestive systems, it is important to choose the right diet for your Maltipoo. Veterinarians recommend feeding your Maltipoo a diet of high-quality wet food, dry food, or a combination of both, tailored to their age, individual needs, and activity level. Look for a formula with high-quality ingredients and avoid ones with by-products or fillers. Make sure the food is all-natural, contains nutrients like protein, vitamins, and minerals, and is supplemented with probiotics and digestive enzymes.
Preparing your home for your new Maltipoo can seem daunting, but it doesn't have to be. Start by designating a gated-off area or crate for your pup where they can nap and rest. You should also stock up on appropriate toys, chewies, and treats, as well as food and water dishes. Additionally, it's important to take the time to puppy-proof your home. Consider investing in furniture and cord protectors, as well as any other necessary household items your furry family member may need.
It is difficult to predict the eventual size of a Maltipoo puppy as it will have characteristics of both the Maltese and Poodle breeds. Generally, the Maltipoo can range from toy size, around 7 pounds and 8 inches tall, to mid-size between 13 and 16 inches, depending on whether its parent is a toy Poodle or a standard Poodle. As a guide, an adult Maltipoo toy size is considered to weigh 7 pounds or less and a standard size is more than 7 pounds up to 18 pounds.
Maltipoos need a moderate amount of daily exercise. Depending on their age and overall health, regular walks are important for keeping them active and healthy. Young Maltipoos typically need 30 minutes to an hour of exercise a day, including play time, but as they get older, their activity level may decrease. A good guideline is to monitor your Maltipoo's behavior and adjust their daily exercise accordingly. In general, puppies and older Maltipoos should have short walks and short play sessions a few times a day.
Maltipoos are an excellent choice for a family dog. They are extremely loyal and can form strong bonds with their family members, not to mention they love to play with children. They are intelligent, easily trainable and very social, which makes them a great fit for households with multiple people. Not to mention, since they tend to have a small size, they don't need a lot of space, so they are perfect for apartments or small houses. Additionally, Maltipoos typically have less shedding than their Poodle and Maltese parents, making it easier to keep your home clean.
Training a Maltipoo is definitely possible, though it’s important to bear in mind that all dogs have different temperaments and will respond differently to various teaching methods. On the whole, Maltipoos are known for being very intelligent and eager to please their owners. With consistent and positive assessments, a Maltipoo can learn basic obedience commands, learn to respond to verbal cues, and learn to focus on the task at hand making them an excellent companion for people of all ages.
