About the Breed
A cross between the Maltese and the Poodle, the Maltipoo is one of the most sought-after designer puppies in the United States. Their hypoallergenic, non-shedding coats make them a perfect fit for any allergy sufferers. These small dogs were bred to show love and be loved. Once in the presence of a Maltipoo, it may be hard to go to any other breed. And if that doesn’t make them desirable enough, they are very easily trainable and enjoy the process.
Appearance and Grooming
These puppies have a high-quality low shedding coat and a fluffy, soft, and wool-like texture which is medium to long and varies from slightly wavy to curly. The coat can have different colors such as cream, white, or silver. They require regular brushing to keep their coats clean, and clipping of their coats once or twice a year. Trimming around the eyes, muzzle, and ears is recommended more often. The ears also need to be cleaned to get rid of dirt, debris, and moisture. This breed needs to have regular dental check-ups and nail care. It is recommended to start the grooming process in puppyhood to get the Maltipoo used to it.
Temperament
While both Poodles and Maltese dog breeds are very loving and affectionate dogs, the Maltese has a tendency to become overly assertive and reactive in certain situations and may nip if provoked. On the other hand, the Poodle, particularly the Miniature, has a milder temperament and is far more tolerant, and this tends to shine through in the Maltipoo pup.
Family and Companionship
This quintessential companion dog adores attention and loves to cuddle. The Maltipoo thrives on love and attention. He should never be forced to spend long periods alone, as he is prone to separation anxiety. Expect this puppy to be lively, inquisitive, and eager to play. They make exceptional family pets as they enjoy family interactions and playtime with children.
Exercise
Though designed for indoor life, your new puppy will still need daily exercise to stay healthy, happy, and out of mischief. They have lots of energy and if not burned in a constructive manner can result in destructive behavior. Taking short walks and both indoor and outdoor play sessions are perfect for this small pup.
Training and Socialization
Known for their intelligence, affection, sociability, and loyalty, these dogs become very attached to their owners. This in combination with the inherited intelligence of the Poodle and the sweetness of the Maltese makes training simple as they are eager to please. Early socialization is highly recommended in order for these dogs to interact with different people, pets, and places. Be sure to use positive reinforcement tactics such as food rewards, play, and praise.
