Pompom puppy12/25/2023 ![]() ![]() Small-breed dog formulas are specially designed to meet the high-energy needs of small, active dogs like the Maltipom. To boot, they’ll also need kibble that is appropriate for their age group- puppy, adult, or senior. As a small-breed dog, the Maltipom requires a high-quality dog food diet that is formulated for their size and activity levels. ![]() Kibble, when made from natural, human-grade ingredients, can be a perfect way to get your pet all the nutrients they need in a tasty form. Not unlike most canines, these designer dogs do well on high-quality dry food for dogs. Luckily, the Maltipom is not too complicated when it comes to his meals. A nutritious diet will support your pet’s overall health and improve their quality of life as a result. There are many possibilities!Ĭhoosing a well-balanced, healthy diet for your dog should be one of your primary concerns. For instance, if you want a more hypoallergenic dog, you would cross a Maltipom with a Poodle, for a litter of Maltipoms that would be 75 percent Poodle and 25 percent Maltese. The lack of uniformity in the Maltipom is remedied with multigenerational crossbreeding, where unrelated Poodles or Maltese dogs are introduced into the family tree. Of course, it is possible to have a dog with more or less than 50 percent of each parent breed in its heritage. With parents from two different breeds, puppies’ looks will always vary, with some of them favoring one breed over the other. One of the reasons for this is that first generation crossbreeds are still a way to go from becoming a breed with a standard. And, since the American Kennel Club doesn’t register Maltipom puppies, they won’t have official pedigree papers. Despite the fact that Maltipom’s mom and dad are two purebreds from the AKC roster, the Maltipom himself is not accepted into the fold. This is a so-called first generation hybrid, as the litters that result from this cross are the first of their kind: their parents are always two purebred dogs. The Maltipom is a 50/50 mix of a purebred Pomeranian and a purebred Maltese. As no one breeder has been credited with the development of the breed, we don’t know when that happened for the Maltese and Pomeranian mix. ![]() Of course, the origin of the breed is thought of as the moment when someone intentionally started crossbreeding the two purebreds in an effort to develop a new breed, rather than Maltipoms being a cute ‘accident’. It’s more likely than not that there have been many unplanned encounters of a Maltese and a Pomeranian which resulted in mixed breed litters all throughout history. The exact origins of the Maltipom breed are unknown because hybrid dogs have been in existence for many years. But it’s not to say that the Maltipom is enigmatic or mysterious- there’s a simple reason for that. In fact, there’s not much we know about this new hybrid and his origin. The Maltipom is a more recent designer dog breed- these pooches don’t boast a rich history as their parents do. The Maltipom is a designer dog breed from crossing two purebred dogs, a Maltese and a Pomeranian. ![]() The appearance of this breed varies, of course, depending on the parentage – it is possible to have a Maltipom with more or less than 50 percent of each parent breed in its heritage. The result is a small dog with the face, ears and stature of a Pomeranian and the long, flowing coat of a Maltese.
