Maltipoo

Maltipoos (8-20 pounds) are affectionate, playful, and intelligent, making them ideal for families or individuals seeking a companion. They’re kid-friendly with gentle older children but fragile for rough play with toddlers, requiring supervision.

Moderate exercise (30-60 minutes daily of walks or indoor play) suits their small size; their curly or wavy coat needs frequent brushing and occasional trimming to prevent matting. Feed 0.5-1 cup daily of Royal Canin Small Adult Dry Dog Food, with 25% protein for energy and coat health, adjusting portions to avoid obesity. Primarily indoor dogs, they adapt well to apartments but are cold-sensitive, thriving with cozy environments.

Training curbs barking and enhances sociability. Perfect for allergy-conscious owners seeking a low-shedding, hypoallergenic pet, Maltipoos flourish with attention, not for high-energy or outdoor-heavy homes.
