Questions & Answers
Maltipoos are classified as a Toy Poodle-Maltese hybrid, and they are known to be intelligent and friendly dogs. As they are a smaller breed, Maltipoos require minimal exercise and are fairly low maintenance. They are generally outgoing and affectionate which makes them excellent companions. If you're looking for a companion who will happily cuddle up with you, then a Maltipoo may be a great fit for you. Maltipoos have a lifespan of 12-15 years and they do not shed often, so they're great for allergy sufferers.
The Maltipoo coat is truly unique! It generally has a soft, wavy texture with a combination of the Poodle's and Maltese's two distinct coats. The length of the coat will depend on the length of the fur of the parent dogs, but it's usually somewhere in between the two. It often has tight curls if the Poodle parent has very tightly curling fur. Some Maltipoos may have a silky coat, depending on coat texture and length. The hair colors can vary, usually in a combination of the colors of their parent breeds.
Generally speaking, Maltipoos have no more special dietary requirements than other dogs. However, since they may be small and prone to dental problems they should have soft, high-quality food to ensure their health and well-being. Feeding Maltipoos properly during puppyhood will help them to maintain a healthy weight as they age and will reduce the risk of developing any joint problems. All Maltipoos should also have access to clean water at all times to keep them properly hydrated and encourage good digestion.
Having a Maltipoo in the home can be an extremely rewarding experience. Before bringing your pup home, it is essential to take some preparatory steps to make sure your home is ready. First and foremost, you should puppy-proof your home by removing or securing items that can be hazardous to your pet. You should also stock up on dog food and supplies, set boundaries and create designated areas in your home for play, dining, and sleeping. Additionally, you should block access to any areas that may be unsafe.
Maltipoos typically reach a size of up to 14 inches when they are fully grown. They weigh between 6 and 14 pounds when they are adults. Maltipoos are considered to be a lap-dog size, which makes them a perfect companion for those who are looking for a small pup that is easy to maintain. On average, Maltipoos live to be 16 to 18 years old, with proper care and nutrition. These dogs are also considered to be a low-shedding breed, making them desirable for those who are looking for a pup that won't aggravate allergies.
As with all types of exercise, it is important to tailor a daily walking plan to your Maltipoo's individual needs. That being said, as a general guidance, it is recommended that Maltipoos get 20-30 minutes of exercise per day, split into two or three separate walks. Depending on their size and activity level, this may mean anything from a light stroll around the block, to a longer outing in the park. Regardless of the activity, the most important thing is to keep the walks regular, making sure your Maltipoo is getting enough exercise and enjoying their daily outings.
Absolutely! Maltipoos make wonderful family dogs as they are loving and loyal. They are incredibly social and thrive off human contact and interaction with their family, making them the perfect addition to any home. Originally bred as companion dogs, Maltipoos are incredibly intelligent and usually come pre-loaded with a host of tricks and training, making them perfect for families with younger children. The Maltipoo is an ideal size for a house dog. They don't require a ton of exercise, yet they enjoy going out with their families and love taking walks.
Training a Maltipoo is not necessarily easy, but it can be manageable with the right approach. As Maltipoos are intelligent and affectionate dogs, a successful training strategy requires consistency and positive reinforcement. Establishing a routine from the very beginning is key, as it will help your Maltipoo to associate specific activities with particular times and to develop consistent good habits. Rewarding desired behavior as well as paying attention to bad habits and intervening as soon as possible can also help achieve successful results.
