Origin: The Malti-Poo is a cross between a Maltese and a Toy Poodle. Like many Poodle crossbreeds, it is known by many names, such as Malte-Poo, Malta-Poo, Multa-Poo, Moodle, Malti-Doodle, Maltese Poodle, or even Malt Oodles.

Size: The Malti-Poo comes in a wide variety of sizes, but most are 6-12 inches at the shoulders and weigh 5-10 lbs A Malti-Poo with more Maltese influence will have a domed skull, whereas a Malti-Poo with a higher Poodle influence will have the long, narrow muzzle characteristic of Poodles.

Coat: The Malti-Poo coat can range from the silky texture of the Maltese coat to the Poodle’s distinctive frizzy coat. It can be many colors including gray, black, white, and apricot. Most Malti-Poos shed little or none and are a good match for allergy sufferers. Many Malti-Poos are kept in a short ‘puppy cut’. Some Malti-Poos are kept with a longer coat, with the hair tied in a bow above the eyes.

Character: The Malti-Poo is an intelligent, loving dog. The mix of Maltese and Poodle usually produces a lively, playful dog devoted to its family. The Malti-Poo loves to play or curl up on the couch for a nap. Malti-Poos require frequent human companionship.

Temperament: The Malti-Poo can get along well with dogs and other pets if socialized when young, but it is somewhat territorial. Malti-Poos may be wary of strangers and are highly protective of their family. Malti-Poos get along very well with children, but should be supervised around young children to ensure the Malti-Poo is treated respectfully.

Care: The Malti-Poo sheds little or no hair. It requires regular brushing to prevent tangling. The eyes and ears should also be cleaned regularly with stray hairs removed. Bathe only when necessary. Puppies should not be handled constantly as they need time to rest and relax. The Malti-Poo has a lifespan of 11-13 years.

Training: The Malti-Poo is eager to learn and should not present many difficulties in training. Positive reinforcement is likely to be the most successful approach. This breed may take a while to house train. Like the Maltese, many Malti-Poos are paper or box trained rather than ‘outdoor’ trained.

Activity: The Malti-Poo can have most of its exercise needs met by indoor play and activities, but it also enjoys walks or playtime in the yard. The Malti-Poo is an excellent breed for apartment life.
