Get To Know the Malti-Poo

 

If anyone has seen a crossbreed dog, the thought of adopting one would cross their mind. One of the most popular crossbreeds is the Malti-Poo. It is a cross between a Maltese and a Poodle. These small dogs with affectionate eyes are the happiness one needs in their life. They are so cute that many call them designer dogs.

 

The Mood-Enhancer Dog

 

Whether one is angry, sad, happy, or upset, dogs can love their owners unconditionally. The Malti-Poo will always be by their owner’s side and will follow them all the time when they are home. Psychologists believe that Malti-Poos can treat patients going through a stage of depression or anxiety. That is why they are also known as therapy dogs. Imagine having such a dog in the house. No one will have a dull moment from the time he/she arrives.

 

Malti-Poo Characteristics

 

Malti-Poos are short and sweet dogs with an average height between 8 and 14 inches. They weigh around 6 to 8 pounds. However, depending on the size, some of them can even weigh 20 pounds. 

 

Malti-Poo Behavior

 

Malti-Poos have an engaging and charming personality. They are intelligent and smart, and they never get angry. You will fall in love their innocent eyes. Malti-Poos become the best friend and a loving companion to their owner. They roam around the house without creating a nuisance. Since they are very intelligent, one can train them to do some of the household activities. However, it is essential that they mix with other dogs. This will keep it happy too. Also, they are attention-seeking. So, it is best to spend time with them when one is at home. They often get anxious when they don’t see their owner for a long time.

 

Malti-Poos live for 10 to 15 years. The time spent with them will be full of joy because they don’t let anyone stay depressed for long.
