The Malti Poo is not a pure breed dog, it is a cross between a Maltese and a standard or miniature Poodle.
The coat may be long and straight or it may be somewhat wavy or even curly and coloring may be gray, cream, white, red, black or apricot. The exact coloring and type of coat will largely depend upon the parents. The Malit Poo is also considered a hypoalergenic breed. Some Malti Poos tend to take more after the poodle side while others more strongly resemble the Maltese side.
The size of the dog will also vary as well. One of the largest factors that can play a role in the size of the dog will depend upon whether one of the parents was a standard poodle or a miniature poodle. Miniature poodles will produce Malti Poos that are smaller while standard poodles will produce larger Malti Poos. Sizes can range from 10 to 14 inches tall and 5 to 15 pounds.
