CHAPTER 1
The Maltipoo: An Introduction
Around 14,000 years ago, ancient man first discovered that the dog was a good companion and has always kept dogs by his side ever since. At first, it was only for survival reasons; dogs helped ancient man hunt and get his food, sniffed out danger for him, and helped keep him safe from enemies at night.
As the centuries went by, life became better for men. However, he still preferred to keep his canine best friend by his side. Although the initial purpose of a dog was to keep humans alive, people found out that dogs were good for making life worth living as well.
The Maltipoo is one of the most rewarding crossbreeds to own!
Dog breeders began to breed different dogs to suit different kinds of people and their various needs and quirks. Big, active dogs were bred for keeping up with people with active lifestyles. Small designer dogs went to those who wanted animals that could also serve as fashion statements. The tough dogs were trained for jobs in the police and military that humans were not capable of doing, and so on.
Breeding two different species of dogs produced a unique breed. And taking that result and breeding it with another produces an even more unique breed. With that, breeders found out they could provide dogs with the good qualities that they wanted and none of the bad characteristics, or at least as little of the bad attributes as possible.
One breed that many people are familiar with is the poodle. Today it is widely known as a show dog, but unknown to many, the poodle did not start like that. It was bred by hunters in France and Germany to be water dogs that retrieved ducks that had been shot down.
The word “poodle” is said to have been a bastardization of a Low German word “pudel” meaning “to splash in water,” which is what they did to go after fallen game birds.
By the 18th century, the poodle had become the principal pet dog in Spain. Despite their apparent talents in the outdoors, they would eventually become the preferred pets of French royalty. So much so that poodles are represented in many paintings, drawings, and engravings commissioned in that era.
Over the years, the poodle was bred with other species to become smaller in size. There are now three standard sizes, as described by both the American Kennel Club (AKC) and the UK Kennel Club (KC); standard, miniature, and toy.
Contrary to popular belief, their puffball appearance (where the hair seems to concentrate “balls” on their head, upper chest, lower legs, and even the tip of their tail) is not their natural look but the result of professional trimming and grooming. By nature, poodles are covered by an even but coarse coat all over their bodies.
Poodles are described as active, agile, and very smart, owing to their past as active hunting partners.
Another breed that gained prominence was the Maltese, another dog that originated from Europe. Unlike the poodle which appears to have bred by modern humans, the Maltese go further back into history. The earliest mention of a Maltese goes back to 370 BCE when Aristotle described the breed, calling it the Malleate Catelli.
Just as the poodle was bred to retrieve game fowl, the Maltese was bred to help its human companions. This was to control rodents and rats. Its small size made it ideal to go after rats and other pests that threatened the food stores of humans living around the Mediterranean.
Eventually, it became known for its cuddliness and small size, and soon it became the favorite of Mediterranean noblewomen.
Today, the Maltese is officially recognized by the AKC as a breed in the toy dog group. They average seven to nine inches high and weigh no more than seven lbs. They have long coats that often reach the floor, and they are generally described as gentle, playful, and charming.
As a holdout to their being ridders of rodents for centuries, Maltese are alert and fearless. They also get along with other dogs and respond well to reward-based training despite showing signs of occasional stubbornness.
You can probably guess by now that these two breeds, the Maltese and the Poodle, were bred to come up with one of the cutest and cuddliest dog breeds to ever walk the earth, the Maltipoo.
