Diet & Lifespan
Prone to dental issues. Crunchy veg snacks like apple slices with a main meal of mashed lentils and rice help keep teeth clean and digestion smooth.
The Climate Truth
A Maltese and Toy Poodle hybrid, the Maltipoo is a room-temperature champion. With a regular puppy cut, they stay comfortable under a ceiling fan and do not have a heavy double coat trapping heat.
The DNA
The Perpetual Puppy. Maltipoos inherit the Poodle’s intelligence and the Maltese’s affectionate confidence, making them emotional, loving, and joyful mood boosters.
Why This Breed Is Suitable for You
