Gentle and generally calm, the Maltipoo makes a great family companion for those who want to spend a lot of time with the dog. This dog loves his people and can bond quickly. However, this strong dog-human bond can be problematic as these dogs often suffer from separation anxiety. They can become depressed and even harm themselves by pulling their own hair or chewing their skin. The Maltipoo does best when not left alone for extended periods of time. This makes them ideal companions for the elderly or those who work from home a lot.
The Maltipoo is energetic and full of spunk, enough for all of its family members to enjoy. He likes to chase a ball or play a game with the children. The Maltipoo also gets along well with other pets. After a hard day of play, he’ll get onto your lap for some well-deserved attention and a comfortable nap. This dog is quite energetic, a short brisk walk in the morning and evening is more than enough exercise to keep the dog happy. This little dog loves to play and will happily chase a ball across the floor for hours on end. As a result, he is a great playmate for well-behaved and caring children. The Maltipoo is an ideal dog for those who live in small apartments in the city, but also like to live in the suburbs with their own garden.
