However, its cuteness has captivated the hearts of many.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n As mentioned before, the Maltipom is a hybrid between two different breeds known as the Maltese and the Pomeranian. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Although these designer dog breeds’ exact appearance may vary with parentage, they generally have long and flowing hair. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The Maltese Pomeranian Mix highlights a tiny but compact stature with a body that compliments its proportionate body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Maltipom has adorable triangular ears that often point upwards.

Some dogs may be more demanding of space than others. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This goes especially for large breeds of dogs<\/a> since most of them tend to be very active and love roaming around the house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n On the other hand, medium to small dogs may be more fit for smaller homes and are better off with a particular group of people. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Knowing a dog’s size will help dog lovers who may not have much space in their homes in the long run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n With that in mind, the Maltipom belongs to the tiny side of the various dog breeds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Owners can expect their Maltipom to grow around 8-12 inches throughout their 12-15 average life span. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Their small stature fits well with families with older children, senior citizens, and small apartments<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Although this intelligent and cute breed of dogs is small compared to most breeds, they surely make up for it with their big and dominant personality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n Animals should never be overweight or malnourished. This goes for dogs as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Understanding the average weight of any dog will greatly help pet enthusiasts keep their dog in top health. <\/p>\n\n\n\n To complement their small compact build, the Maltipom averages around 3 \u2013 9 pounds in weight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This means that the Maltipom does not require large sums of food to give them the nutrition they need for the day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Although Pomeranian Maltese mix will love the occasional treat, owners should not spoil them too much as their diet mainly comprises high-quality dry food for dogs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n These should generally contain organic and natural ingredients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n Fortunately enough, the Maltipom belongs to the category of non-shedding breeds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Despite its very fine and furry coat, owners will not have to worry about large clumps of fur accumulating everywhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Naturally, the Maltipom will have pieces of its hair scatter now and then, especially when you frequently brush them; however, the hair that may fall will be comparatively smaller than most breeds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In terms of maintenance, the Maltipom’s luxurious coat needs consistent brushing and combing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This is especially important if owners frequently take their dogs out on long walks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Groups of dirt or tangled hair may become a problem later on, so it is important to brush and comb the Malti-pom frequently. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Using a water spray will greatly help to comb the Maltipom. For dogs with mostly white coats of fur, it is important to wipe their eyes and face to prevent stains. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Their fine and long furs might trap dirt as well as their ears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It is essential that you also take care of the Maltipoms coat, although they may not shed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n If you do not have enough time, you can always take them to a nearby grooming shop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n Bathing your dog<\/a> will mostly depend on how frequently they go out on walks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n If owners tend to walk them for long periods, they may require more bathing than usual. <\/p>\n\n\n\n It is generally advised, however, to bathe the Maltipom once every two weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Exemptions can be made if your pomeranian mix is rolled in some mud or dirt. In this case, it would be best to bathe them even if it has not been two weeks yet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Dirt can accumulate in their fur, causing them to have mats or discoloration. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Owners should always ensure that the shampoo they use is specially made for dogs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n There can be ingredients in the shampoos used by people that may be harmful to the dog’s skin. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This can cause their skin to become irritated and may even damage the health of their health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It is also advised to take measures that may reduce stains on the Maltipom’s fur coat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Feeding your dog kibble with no artificial coloring and placing their food in stainless steel bowls will greatly help prevent discoloration in their fur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Additionally, you can routinely wipe their face with fresh wipes around their eyes, mouth, and chins whenever it may be needed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Wipes that are made for dogs will likely be available at a nearby pet store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n Generally, Maltipom is a kind and loving breed.
