Questions & Answers
A Maltipoo is a crossbreed between a Maltese and a Poodle. It is a small, gentle dog that is affectionate, intelligent and friendly with children and other pets. Maltipoos tend to be loyal and loving, bonding quickly to their family. They generally have a long, soft coat of wavy fur, which may be silky or curly in texture, and come in a variety of colors. Maltipoos are known to be happy, amusing dogs that will generally keep their owners entertained.
Yes, Maltipoos can be hypoallergenic though this is not necessarily the case for all of them. As a hybrid breed, the characteristics of individual Maltipoos can vary from one to another. Generally speaking, however, Maltipoos are known for their low-shedding coats, which reduces the amount of dander that would otherwise trigger an allergic reaction. Maltipoos may also be more tolerable of those with allergies than other breeds because they are typically smaller and have a non-shedding coat of fur.
Feeding your Maltipoo is important to their health and wellness. The type of food will depend on the age and size of your pup. Puppies and smaller Maltipoos require puppy food, which is made especially for their needs. Most puppy food will contain omega-3 fatty acids, which are important for developing strong bones and muscles. For adults, it is important to look for food that is formulated specifically for small breeds of dogs. It should keep their joints healthy while maintaining a healthy weight. You may want to look for food that has extras like probiotics and antioxidants.
Preparing for a new Maltipoo puppy is an exciting process! To ensure that your furry new companion is off to the best start in life, there are several important steps to take. First, make sure your home is ready for your new arrival. Clear any clutter from low surfaces and make sure you have Dog-Proofed your electrical cords, poisonous plants, and any products that are hazardous to your pup's health. Second, research and purchase the essentials you need to care for your new pup including food, bowls, a collar and leash, and puppy pads.
The size of your Maltipoo puppy is hard to determine as it will depend on several important factors such as both the size of the parents, the specific genetic traits passed on to the puppy, and environmental factors. Generally speaking, Maltipoos range from 6 to 30 pounds and 6 to 15 inches in height at maturity. The best way to predict the size of your puppy at maturity is to look at the average size of its parents.
Maltipoos, as a hybrid breed with both Toy Poodle and Maltese parentage, are an active breed that need a moderate amount of daily exercise. Owners should plan on at least 30 minutes of activity each day, consisting of leisurely walks and outdoor play. It's best to start with shorter walks and gradually increase their length and pace. Games of fetch and chasing a ball outside are great ways to keep the pup limber. Allowing the pup to explore and sniff around on walks can add a little extra exercise to their routine.
Absolutely! Maltipoos are excellent family dogs. Because of their gentle nature and friendly personalities, Maltipoos form strong bonds with their families and are very patient which makes them great around children. They are very social, athletic, and intelligent so they are able to learn quickly and will keep everyone entertained for hours. Additionally, Maltipoos are easily trained and generally have low to no shedding which makes them a great choice for both indoor-living and those with allergies. As long as they are given lots of love and attention, Maltipoos make wonderful family members.
Training a Maltipoo can be an enjoyable experience as they are very eager to please. One of the most important factors to consider when training any dog is to remain consistent and be patient with your pup. Start by teaching basic commands such as 'sit', 'down' and 'come' with treats before moving on to more complicated tasks. Be sure to keep the 30-second rule in mind when it comes to correction only call the pup's attention to their mistake within 30 seconds.
