Designer Dog - "Malti-Poo"

The Malti-Poo is a designer dog and, it is a cross between the Maltese and the Poodle . The great way to determine the temperament of a designer breed is to look up all breeds in the cross and know you can get any combination of any of the characteristics found in either breed.

 Although there are designer hybrid dogs being bred which are 50% purebred to 50% purebred, it is not uncommon for breeders to breed multi-generation cross, 75% to 25%, to try and gain certain features like color, temperament or non-shedding coat.

Size and Colors

Sizes vary with the size of the parents, but commonly the maltipoo typically matures between 5 to 10 pounds. These dogs are non-shedding, and  light colors are most common, but can be found in a variety of colors.

Temperament

The Maltese Poodle has a delightful temperament and they are a bright and happy dog.  They are very
smart and devoted like both breeds. 

They are excellent with children as long as the parent teaches their child to play carefully with the smaller breed.www.designerdogsandpups.blogspot.com
