toy poodle

Answer 3

It really depends on the individual and the breeder who bred them. Some dogs are obviously more calm while others have a lot of energy.

And usually mixed-breed puppies tend to have less genetic health problems than purebreds, but again, it depends on whether the breeder is doing his or her job correctly.

Most dogs bark a lot when there's a stranger or someone entering the house. My friend had a poodle mix and another has a Standard Poodle and both barked a lot when they were excited or "on guard". So do my aunt's Malteses and my friend's as well.

I would say both fit those guidelines about the same. However! Children do not know how to handle dogs carefully yet. Supervise the child and the puppy since children can accidentally hurt small dogs, or the dog can get irritated and snap at the kid's hands.

Answer 4

neither toy poodle or maltipoo do well with children under a certain age better with older considerate children since they are fragile well it depends on the dog not the breed

CHIHUAHUA ARE CUTE AND FITS ALL THOSE WORDS AND PLUS WHY DO YOU WANT A STUPID POODLE OR A DUMB UGLY MALTIPOO BOTH OF THEM ARE UGLY AND NOT PLAYFULL SO DONT GET THOSE DUMB DOGS YOUR THINKNING OF GETTING

Answer 6

You'd be better off going with a Toy Poodle.

'Maltipoos' are Mutts, therefore, being a Mutt, you won't actually know it's temperament or personality, as well as what it may look like or how big it might grow.

Have you heard of Puppy Mills? That's where 'Maltipoos' come from.You see, no responsible/reputable breeder would EVER breed a Mutt. So, you only;y get people who want money breeding dogs such as 'Maltipoos'.

Find a reputable breeder of Toy Poodles. Never buy anything labeled 'Teacup', 'Micro' or 'Tiny', as these are just Runts, again, bred by Puppy Mills and people who want money.

Answer 7

Probably a maltipoo since poodles are really friendly with everyone, and mixes usually have less health problems.

Although I think  standard poodles  are better,since they are good with kids, really cuddly, don't bark much(or mine doesn't at least, unless she's scared)
