smaller but very active; ensure safety when playing and jumping as dog ages. Eyes tend to become dirty quickly, keep clean a few times a week to ensure healthy vision. Ears need to be clear of hair in the inner canal; see vet for
assistance.

Does anyone know how to stop a maltipoo from digging? He is ruining the carpets in our home. But, he does this when no one is around so it's hard for us to train him to stop. I want to get rid of him but my husband's attached to it. Any advice would be great.

Anonymous How to find a reliable breeder? 3 Feb 28 2008, 12:30 PM EST by Anonymous

I am interested in adopting a maltipoo in about 3 months. I am doing preliminary research and can't seem to find any breeders in CT or in surrounding states. Does anyone have any information about breeders in New England? How can I tell if a breeder that is willing to ship to CT is actually a reputable breeder (besides the obvious--offering vet checks, health guarantees, and pedigrees?) Has anyone else encountered this problem?

I'm interested in adopting a Maltipoo Dog, not a puppy. I live near Philadelphia, PA. If you or anyone you know has a Maltipoo dog available for adoption, please let me know. Joyce
