Questions & Answers
A Maltipoo is a designer breed of dog created by crossing a Poodle and a Maltese. While they do not have a specific breed standard, they generally have a soft, thick, wavy coat and are small in size, weighing between 5-20 pounds when fully grown. Maltipoos tend to be loving, loyal, and intelligent dogs that make wonderful family pets. As a hybrid breed, they are generally healthier and live longer than the purebred parents. They have a moderate energy level and do not require excessive amounts of exercise.
The Maltipoo is a hypoallergenic breed due to its hybrid status, which combines the maltese and poodle breeds which are both known for their lack of shedding and hypoallergenic qualities. The Maltipoo also has a non-shedding coat which consists of tight, curled fur that is soft, fluffy, and easy to manage. Their coat is unique and suited for those with allergies as it will not produce the amount of dander that a regular dog's coat might contain.
Maltipoos are a crossbreed between a Maltese and a Toy or Miniature Poodle, so they are considered a designer dog. Their meal plans should match their small size, and are sometimes referred to as a small breed or toy breed diet. Generally, Maltipoos will do well with a high-quality dry kibble that is customized for toy and small breed needs. The main ingredients should be a high-quality animal protein like chicken, beef, lamb or fish. These proteins should be followed by complex carbohydrates like oatmeal, barley, brown rice, and whole wheat.
Becoming the best puppy parent requires preparation and knowledge to ensure your Maltipoo is safe, healthy and has all the love, attention and guidance that it needs. Start by researching the breed so you understand their needs, typical behaviors and personality traits. Have the supplies ready such as puppy food, bowls, bed, crate, toys and tools to train them. Be ready to spend time with your new family member, set aside at least a few hours each day to be with them, bond, feed and play.
Maltipoos vary in size, depending on the size of the two breeds they were bred from. Typical Maltipoo sizes range from teacup size to medium size. Teacup Maltipoos are the smallest and are typically between 1 5 pounds when fully grown. The Toy and Mini Maltipoo sizes are just slightly bigger, in the 4 8 pound range. Finally, Standard Maltipoos are the largest, ranging between 10 20 pounds when fully grown. It is important to note that size can vary in Maltipoos depending on their parents' breeds and size.
An ideal daily walking routine for your Maltipoo is approximately 20-30 minutes. This can be achieved by two 10-15 minute daily walks, or one longer 20-30 minute stroll. It is important for your Maltipoo to get regular daily exercise to keep them physically fit and healthy. This will help ensure they maintain a healthy body weight and muscles, as well as help circulate the blood around their body. Additionally, regular walks can help satisfy your Maltipoo’s needs of mental stimulation and social interaction, since they are quite intelligent and love to explore.
Maltipoos are known for their friendly, affectionate personality and their gentle nature which makes them excellent family pets, especially for households with children. They are experts at loving their owners and will thrive in any sweet, loving environment. They are often very patient, loyal, and eager to please dogs who do very well with positive reinforcement training. Because they are small, they are not likely to knock a child over and their fur is so soft and fluffy that they are often used as therapy dogs.
Maltipoos are considered to be among the smartest breeds of dogs. These mixed breeds tend to be more trainable and adaptable than purebreds, and have been ranked consistently as one of the top 10 most intelligent dogs. Maltipoos are also highly social and excel in problem-solving tasks, making them among the most responsive and loyal of canine companions. Their intelligence is further showcased by their ability to quickly pick up new commands and perform a variety of tricks.
