Questions & Answers
Maltipoos are known for their intelligence and loyalty, which is why they make great family pets. This breed is a mix between a Maltese and a Toy Poodle, resulting in a small, fluffy and active companion. Maltipoos are generally low-shedding, have minimal dander, and are good for those with allergies making them a desirable choice for pet owners. While Maltipoos love attention and playtime, they don’t require excessive exercise and do well even in smaller living spaces.
Maltipoos have a soft, straight, and silky coat that has a tendency to repel dirt and grime. This hybrid breed is known for having a high shedding resistance, so they don't need a lot of grooming. The texture of their coat varies depending on the genetic makeup of the parent breeds, but it will be somewhere between a Maltese and a Poodle. Generally, the Maltipoo's coat is more wavy than that of a Maltese and it is slightly coarser than that of a Poodle.
Maltipoos do not typically have special dietary needs that would be different from other toy breed dogs. However, due to their small stature, they should be fed smaller meals throughout the day instead of one or two large meals. Additionally, because they trace their lineage back to both the Poodle and Maltese breeds, it’s important to monitor these dogs for food allergies that could be caused by certain ingredients.
Maltipoos are mostly known for their hypoallergenic coats and needing little more than a good brushing and regular trim. However, like all dogs there are a few special requirements to keep them happy and healthy. Because Maltipoos can gain weight quickly, it is important to feed them a balanced diet and supply enough exercise to promote a healthy lifestyle. Keeping current on routine vaccines and regular vet visits will also help to prevent any health problems that may arise.
Maltipoos can mature anywhere from 6 to 14 pounds and 8 to 14 inches tall. As a hybrid breed, they can be affected by 'hybrid vigor', meaning that their adult size may be significantly affected by the size of their parent breeds for the first generation. Basically, the smaller the parent breeds, the smaller the Maltipoo. Furthermore, females tend to be slightly smaller than males in size.
Yes, you can take your Maltipoo running! Maltipoos can benefit from regular exercise, provided that it's appropriate for their age and level of physical ability. If your Maltipoo is a puppy, it is recommended that you wait until they are at least 6 months old before taking them running. Once they reach 6 months old, you can gradually increase their running time to help build their endurance. Even if your Maltipoo is past the puppy stage, you should start out gradually and gradually increase the running time each day, to ensure their muscles can handle the strenuous physical activity.
Maltipoos are typically excellent companions for families with children. With their sweet and gentle temperament combined with their love of human attention, Maltipoos are often known to bond strongly with children. In addition to being great at playing fetch, Maltipoos have a naturally sweet and patient disposition that can help even the most energetic and curious kids stay calm and relaxed. They also tend to pick up commands quickly and are highly trainable, which can come in handy when teaching kids responsibility and helping them learn proper dog behavior.
Training a Maltipoo can vary from dog to dog and owner to owner. The key to successfully training a Maltipoo is consistency. Maltipoos are highly intelligent, eager to please, and have great memories, so with consistent, daily training sessions and patience, you can set the pace and establish a consistent routine, which will help the Maltipoo understand what is expected of them. It can be relatively easy to train them as they love to please and to learn new things.
