The Maltipoo is a cross between a Maltese and a Poodle. Alert and active, the Maltese Poodle mix is known for their adorable appearance, friendly disposition, and hypoallergenic coat. These small dogs come in various colors, from creamy white and apricot to chocolate and silver. Maltipoos can have a variety of coat types, including straight, wavy, or curly. They often have low-shedding or hypoallergenic coats, which can vary depending on the generation of the cross. With their intelligent and trainable nature, the Maltese Poodle thrives in active homes where they can be the center of attention. The Maltipoo’s easygoing and affectionate temperament makes them an ideal companion for all types of households. This popular Poodle mix loves social interaction and strongly attaches to their human companions. However, they aren’t very independent and can be prone to separation anxiety if left alone for long periods. As with other breeds, early socialization is essential.
