Maximum size of Malti-poo?

gilda25 · 10-27-2005, 07:21 AM

I have a 3 month old MaltiPoo. Does anyone have an idea of what I can expect his maximum weight to be? I've looked online and i cant seem to find a specific weight range. Just height etc etc.
I'd appreciate your help. Thanks!

How big is she at 3months?

Since a MalitPoo is a mix breed from a combination of Maltese and Poodle there’s no set standard to go for when it comes to size because it’s a mix. It could grow to be 5-10 pounds or 15-20 pounds.

Well, it depends what size of poodle the "poo" came from (so to speak

). Probably a Toy Poodle. In which case, the dog would be a max of 10" at the shoulder. And a Maltese should weigh between 4-6 pounds... So you're not looking at a large dog by any means! But you do sacrifice some predictibility when you have a mix of breeds, so it's impossible to say for sure.

Like the others said, no way to know for sure with a mix... just wait and see what happens.

Gilda, I have a poodle mix....we're not sure mixed with what, but from the looks of it, he could be a malti-poo, a terri-poo or even a cocker-poo....anyway, I got him at about 3 months and he was about 5 lbs....he is now 6 months and he is 11 lbs....I hope he doesn't get any bigger. Just to give you an idea of how fast they can grow.
