Questions & Answers
Maltipoos are a cross breed of two popular breeds, the Maltese and the Poodle. As such, they do not have a single ‘class’; instead, they exhibit a range of characteristics determined by the parent breeds. Generally, Maltipoos have a lively and affectionate temperament, and their coats are typically soft and curly. They are usually small dogs that do not require an excessive amount of exercise, but they do need to interact with people often to stay healthy and balanced.
Maltipoos are considered to be among the most hypoallergenic and non-shedding of the small-dog breeds. Their coats require minimal maintenance because of their great non-shedding abilities. In fact, Maltipoos are so adept at not shedding that many pet owners choose them for their hypoallergenic qualities. Maltipoos may not be completely non-shedding, but what little they do produce is much less than other breeds, so pet owners will experience minimal cleanup.
Maltipoos typically don't have any special dietary needs that differ from any other breed of dog. However, because of their smaller size they do not require as much food as a larger breed; a common rule of thumb is to feed your Maltipoo half a cup of kibble per 10 pounds of body weight, twice daily. Additionally, since Maltipoos are prone to dental issues, it is important to choose a food that is designed to help keep their teeth clean, such as crunchy kibble or homemade food that contains crunchy pieces.
Preparing for a new maltipoo requires time and dedication, but the rewards of having a loyal and lovable pup make the effort worth it. Start by making sure your home is ready for a new addition, providing all the necessary items such as a crate, bed, toys, and food dishes. Research the specific nutrition requirements and create a feeding schedule to ensure your maltipoo is getting the proper nutrition. Additionally, talk to your vet and create a realistic plan for flea and tick prevention and make sure your pup is up-to-date on all his or her necessary vaccinations.
Yes, Maltipoos are considered small dogs. This breed generally stands no taller than 15 inches at the shoulder and weighs between 6 and 15 pounds. Although this breed can technically be grouped into the Toy group, they are more often considered an offshoot of the category of small dogs due to their size. Maltipoos are very popular due to their adaptability to many different living situations, being friendly, and their low-shedding coat. They are popular pet choices for those living in smaller homes and apartments looking for a smaller breed of dog to fit into their lifestyle.
Maltipoos are known to be quite the adventurers, so it is not surprising that they often enjoy taking a dip in the water. They are usually quite enthusiastic to be around water, although some Maltipoos may be a bit scared to go in. However, if you introduce them to swimming gradually and help them to build confidence, then many Maltipoos will be more than happy to take a swim. Some Maltipoos may even take to swimming rather quickly, exploring the depths and enjoying the spoils of the water, like retrieve a toy or two.
Maltipoos are generally known for being a very friendly and loyal breed, who love spending quality time with their families, especially children. Maltipoos are patient and calm, which makes them great playmates for children. Their small size makes them suitable for kids who are still learning how to handle and interact with dogs. Due to their intelligence, Maltipoos love to learn, and can easily be trained. Maltipoos are also low on energy and non-destructive, making them the perfect pet for households with children.
Training a Maltipoo is important to ensure that it is well behaved and obedient. However, there is no definitive answer as to how much time each day you should spend training your Maltipoo. As a general rule, between 10 to 15 minutes of training each day is recommended, with additional time incrementally added as your Maltipoo processes new commands. It is important to remember that when training your pup, the focus should be on positive reinforcement and consistency. A varied approach with multiple techniques and rewards is often more effective than a drilled approach to repetition.
