Re: maltipoo
 With a mutt, you are never sure which genetic traits they will inherit. There is not way to tell what their tempermant will be like
That being said, they are very cute

Re: maltipoo
i guess you can look up the traits for a maltese and a poodle and figure you will get a little bit of both!

maybe, but usually one of the traits are more dominant,. If they have similiar traits, then it is easy

Re: maltipoo
well, they are non-shedding - so that's good. poodles are great dogs and malteses are really cute - so, i would imagine they would be good. MIL's friend has one - adorable and very nice.

ITA... I'd also take a close look at the down side of each breed as well, b/c as much as the breeders *try* to get the best of both worlds, it is very possible the litter might get the worst.
If you love this breed, try adoption first. I have seen a few on Petfinders.com recently.
Some shelters even evaluate the temperament before allowing an adoption, so you have a good idea of what you are getting.

Re: maltipoo
My brother has one and she is great. I had a Maltese that I lost last year at 15. She was the best companion/friend I could have asked for. Good luck in your search.

They live in Florida. Sorry they are not around here. A lot of people have seen little Toby and have gone to the breeder. She is a little teacup.

Re: maltipoo
I have one. I actually got her from a pet store out east. I love her. She is sooo sweet but I have been having a hard time potty training her but I think it is more of my fault than hers but she is so smart.
