Maltipoo – a cute dog to love and cuddle
Maltipoo is one of the most popular hybrid breeds – it was created by combining the Maltese and the Miniature Poodle . The result of this cross is a dog with an extremely charming appearance, intelligent, easy to handle and friendly even to allergy sufferers. In this entry you will learn about the characteristics of the Maltipoo breed, its care needs, temperament and the most important accessories that will help ensure a healthy and happy life.
Maltipoo Character and Disposition
Maltipoo is a dog that loves people . He is very attached to his owner and finds himself perfectly in both small apartments and houses with a garden. He has a cheerful disposition , gets along well with children and other animals, and his intelligence and willingness to cooperate means that he learns quickly.
✔ Friendly and gentle - ideal for families with children
✔ Intelligent and easy to train – quickly learns commands
✔ Likes closeness - feels best at someone's side
Maltipoo and allergies – is it a dog for people with allergies?
Thanks to its Poodle genetic heritage, the Maltipoo rarely sheds and is often referred to as a hypoallergenic dog. This makes it a great choice for people with mild allergies to fur.
👉 To ensure healthy sleep and comfort for your Maltipoo, choose a soft, hypoallergenic bed from the Sleep by Petto collection. Premium fabrics such as bouclé and velvet provide comfort, style and ease of cleaning.
Maltipoo Care – How to Care for His Fur?
The Maltipoo has a soft, fluffy coat that can be wavy or slightly curly. Although beautiful, it requires regular grooming :
🔹 Brushing daily or at least 3-4 times a week
🔹 Bath every 3–4 weeks using gentle cosmetics
🔹 Regular trimming at the groomer
A well-groomed Maltipoo not only looks beautiful, but also tolerates temperature changes better and is less susceptible to skin problems.
Maltipoo Nutrition – What Should He Eat?
Maltipoo, despite its small size, has a sensitive digestive system . Avoid foods with artificial additives and low-quality protein. The ideal diet for a Maltipoo should:
✔ Be rich in easily digestible protein (e.g. turkey, lamb)
✔ Contains omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids for a healthy coat
✔ Be free from grains and preservatives
Physical activity and the need for closeness
Maltipoo is a dog that loves to play, but does not need very intensive walks. 2-3 walks a day and a daily portion of play at home are enough. Because these dogs are very attached to their owner, they do not cope well with loneliness , so it is worth providing them with a comfortable place close to a person.
👉 Dog stairs will work well - they will make it easier for your Maltipoo to access the couch or bed, while protecting his delicate joints.
