Questions & Answers
Maltipoos are an increasingly popular mixed dog breed that blends the Maltese and the Poodle. They are a great companion breed as they love attention and make excellent family pets. Fun facts about Maltipoos include: they are hypoallergenic, they are social and friendly, they show tremendous obedience and intelligence, they love to play and learn, they can be very low-maintenance when it comes to grooming, and they can live up to 15 years with proper care. Although they are small dogs, they are not timid, and they like to show their affection for their owners.
The Maltipoo has a thick and luxurious coat. It has a long, puffy texture that can range from different lengths, such as straight to wavy. The most common coat colors are white, apricot, black, red, silver or gray. Typically the fur is soft and curly and is often hypoallergenic. This is often the perfect choice for people with allergies as this breed has a low dander coat. Maltipoos have a moderate to low shedding coat and do require regular grooming to keep it looking its best.
Maltipoos have some dietary needs that are unique compared to other toy breeds. Generally, they are recommended to consume a food that is high in proteins and low in fat, usually consisting of a combination of lean meat, vegetable and complex carbohydrates. Additionally, because Maltipoos do not have the same metabolic rate or digestive system as a regular-sized dog, they also tend to require smaller and more frequent meals, usually four to five times per day.
Preparing your home for your new Maltipoo is an important step that includes creating a safe and comfortable environment. You should first assess your living area for any potential hazards that could threaten your pet's safety, and make sure all accessible areas can be securely pet-proofed. It's also important to secure all windows, doors, and gates to prevent your Maltipoo from escaping. Additionally, Maltipoos are indoor dogs so make sure to have a comfortable bed or crate for them to sleep in and furniture for them to climb on and curl up in.
Maltipoos can range in size, depending on the mix of their parents. Generally speaking, these hybrid designer dogs may grow anywhere from 6 pounds to 20 pounds, when measuring at the withers (an area between the shoulder blades). However, sometimes a Maltipoo may even grow outside of this range. The size of a Maltipoo is also determined by the type of Poodle used in the mix. Toy Poodle mixes will typically be smaller than Standard Poodle mixes. Additionally, the size of a Maltipoo can be affected by diet, exercise, and other environmental factors.
Maltipoos are active, friendly dogs who need plenty of exercise to keep them both physically and mentally healthy. Typically, they need around 30 minutes of exercise a day, divided into two or more of walks, runs, or playtime. Short bursts of activity, such as playing fetch or tug-of-war are a great way to break up your Maltipoo's daily activity. If a Maltipoo has access to a securely fenced yard, you may want to divide their exercise into a few shorter sessions throughout the day.
Maltipoos are generally a good choice when it comes to children. Their temperament is gentle and loving, which makes them a great family pet. Maltipoos are also known for their intelligence and willingness to learn, meaning they can be easily trained to obey house rules and become good companion dogs. While Maltipoos are not as active as some other breeds, they still need to be given time for exercise, play and companionship. If given the proper attention, love and socialization, Maltipoos make excellent and safe playmates with kids of all ages.
Training a Maltipoo is a rewarding experience, and one that can be achievable with the right patience and know-how. Generally speaking, Maltipoos are intelligent, eager to please dogs that adapt well and take to canine training quickly. Proper reinforcement, consistency and positive reinforcement are the best methods to utilize when training Maltipoos. Consistently work on teaching commands to your puppy, rewarding good behavior and redirecting misbehavior with a calm, firm attitude.
