Maltipoo


This week, I am going to be talking about the maltipoo. Maltipoos are a mix between a maltese and a poodle. I personally have one and I love him. His name is Biskit. Recently, maltipoos have become more popular and many people are beginning to adopt them.

This may be because of the fact that they don't shed. Because maltipoos are part poodle, it is very rare to get one that sheds its fur. However, an owner must brush their maltipoo's fur a couple times a week depending on the length of the fur. This will prevent matted or tangled fur. This is important because if a maltipoo's fur becomes too unruly, the owner will probably have to shave their maltipoo. It is very difficult to clean a maltipoo when their fur is messed up.Maltipoos tend to have a lot of energy, so they are good outdoor family pets. However, owners should keep small children away because maltipoos easily become excited and could accidently hurt small children while trying to play with them.
