The Maltipoo is part of the popular Poodle mix category that has emerged in recent years. A cross between a Maltese and a Toy Poodle, this dog is hypoallergenic, gentle, and affectionate. They have high levels of positive energy and need to be walked regularly. The Maltipoo will become a wonderful addition to your family unit.
They are the ideal companion for anyone who's looking for a loyal dog that forms strong human bonds. It's important to note that, since they are so devoted to their family, Maltipoos can develop separation anxiety if they are left by themselves too often or for too long. However, if you are able to give a Maltipoo the attention and affection it needs, the breed is generally calm and even-tempered.
While not overly energetic, Maltipoos still enjoy a moderate amount of exercise daily. These dogs also make good playmates for well-behaved children, so they're wonderful family dogs.
As long as they are properly trained and cared for, Maltipoos are well-behaved, delightful pets. They love the outdoors and playing with family members. They are also very intelligent so games of fetch should be played frequently to keep them focused and engaged.
They require walks every day to stay healthy. That doesn't mean their energy level is uncontrollable because they are also happy to take long rests during the day. They enjoy relatively good health as long as they get plenty of exercise and eat a solid diet. They only require regular visits to the vet for checkups.
