Questions & Answers
Maltipoos are a hybrid breed of designer dogs that are a mix between a Maltese and miniature or toy poodle. They make excellent family pets since they are very friendly and affectionate. Even though they get most of their traits from their ancestors, each Maltipoo is unique in size, coloring, and personality. On average a Maltipoo can live between 10 to 15 years, so it should be a lifelong commitment for the owners.
Maltipoos, a crossbreed between the Maltese and toy or miniature poodle, can be considered non-shedding. While Maltipoos aren't guaranteed to be completely non-shedding, they generally have less shedding than many other breeds. Interestingly, since toy poodles do not shed, pairing them with a Maltese can create a Maltipoo with more non-shedding characteristics. The combination of low coat maintenance and relatively low shedding makes Maltipoos a great breed for people who want a small companion with a low-maintenance coat.
Maltipoos are known for their excellent health and overall vitality, but like all companion animals, they do have some special dietary needs. While a balanced, wholesome diet is recommended for all animals, Maltipoos, as a small-breed dog, need the proper ratio of proteins, vitamins, and fats for growth and development. Eating a healthy, species-appropriate diet will help to ensure that your Maltipoo stays healthy and is getting all the nutrition that it needs.
Before bringing home your new Maltipoo, it is important to prepare your home for your pup's arrival. Be sure to puppy-proof your house to ensure their safety; block or remove access to any potentially dangerous areas or items, like electrical cords, poisonous plants, and hazardous materials. Also, place furniture, pillows, and other items where they can't be reached or chewed. Make sure to provide your pup with a comfortable bed, lots of toys to choose from, and plenty of freshwater.
Maltipoos come in a variety of sizes ranging from toy (4-10 pounds) to standard (15-25 pounds). Even within each size range, there can be a significant difference in size and weight between individual puppies. Smaller Maltipoos are ideal for apartment living, while the larger ones are suitable for owners with bigger living spaces. These dogs also come in different coat colors such as black, white, tan, apricot, brown, and red. The coat can be curly, straight, or wavy depending on the parents' genetics.
Maltipoos are known for being an active breed. They are full of energy, always wanting to go on adventures and are always up for a game of fetch or tug-of-war. When it comes to their intelligence, they can learn quite quickly and may even take part in activities such as agility. While they are active, they don't need extremely long bouts of exercise. A simple walk around the block or an hour-long playtime daily is sufficient.
Maltipoos are typically very well-suited for family life with children, as long as the appropriate amount of socialization and training is provided. Maltipoos tend to have very gentle and loving natures, combine a playful and affectionate attitude, and require moderate exercise and grooming making them a great companion for kids. They are intelligent, energetic, and love to be around their family. If Maltipoos are given enough attention and love, they usually form strong bonds with children and they form a connection with adults and children alike.
Training your Maltipoo is much like training any other breed it requires patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement. The success of your Maltipoo's training will be dependent on the consistency of your efforts. Start by setting clear expectations and training objectives with your Maltipoo. Be sure to keep his attention by ensuring sessions are kept short and you are using treats or a toy as a reward for good behaviour. To maintain behaviours that you have taught, it's important to give praise and treats regularly and in the same manner to your Maltipoo.
