Breed History

Like the Maltipoos, this dog breed is a new discovery in the canine family therefore not much can be said about their origination. But the breeds parents which are the Pomeranian and Maltese have lots of history.  The dog breed just began gaining traction and that can explain why their background cannot be traced. Although, they share a resemblance with Maltipoos because they are both litters of a Maltese.

Temperament

These designer breeds are very friendly and affectionate. They are a very good fit for families with kids both grown and little kids. Though it is advised that the little ones who may not be so good with dogs be kept away.

These dog breeds are naturally tiny in size and very fragile, therefore they are to be kept in warm weather conditions and also not left outdoors for so long. With proper socialization and training, this breed can be well behaved and very friendly with other dogs, cats and animals as well.

They are very loyal and can be clingy if not allowed to socialize properly. It is a good watchdog and is very alert when it is suspicious of any strange happenings. And yes, they are also hypoallergenic and barely shed hair.

Maltipoms can also live in enclosed spaces/apartments. So, do not be scared if you do not have a large yard or a spacious apartment. They are also great travel partners because they can easily adapt to a new environment.

Exercise

If you do not like taking a stroll, then you cannot own this dog breed because it is either you learn or you don’t own it at all. Maltipom is very agile and loves taking strolls.
