What is a Maltipoo?
A Maltipoo is a small companion cross between a Maltese and a Toy or Miniature Poodle, often described as a Maltese Poodle mix, typically 2 to 4kg full grown in the toy sizes we place, with a soft low-shedding coat that in Singapore is most often apricot. It pairs the Maltese devotion to its people with the Poodle's quick mind, which makes it a devoted lap dog for homes where someone is usually around.

A velcro dog, and proud of it
Some breeds tolerate your company. A Maltipoo insists on it: it follows you from room to room, naps against your leg, and treats your lap as assigned seating. For the right home, that devotion is exactly the point, not a flaw to be managed.
After 100+ placements we can tell you precisely who the right home is: retirees, people who work from home, and families with a helper or a grandparent around through the day. That is the toy Maltipoo Singapore homes keep coming back for, and those placements are the ones we keep hearing from. The temperament guidecovers what daily life is like, including the honest parts.
Maltipoo at a glance
- Maltese × Toy or Miniature Poodle cross
- Toy-sized: 2 to 4kg for most of ours
- Low-shedding coat, apricot most common here
- Deeply people-attached; wants daytime company
- Featherweight and carrier-friendly
The one question we ask before showing you a puppy
Who is home between 8am and 6pm? At the shop we ask it before colour, before size, before budget, because it is the single number that decides whether a Maltipoo placement works.
If someone is around most of the day, a Maltipoo will be the happiest dog in the block. If the flat empties out every weekday, we will say so plainly and point you to a more independent breed; our sister shop places Cavapoos for exactly that routine. TheMaltipoo vs Cavapoo comparison settles it properly.
A note from the shop floor: talking a buyer out of the wrong dog costs us a sale that week and earns us a referral the next. We have made that trade many times, and it is why our reviews mention honest advice more than anything else.
Which routine are you?
- Someone home most of the day: the Maltipoo sweet spot
- WFH with meetings: yes, with a settled pen routine
- Both out 8am to 6pm daily: consider a Cavapoo instead
- Away morning to night: we will advise against a puppy for now

Is a Maltipoo HDB approved?
Yes, and not just in practice: HDB'sapproved breeds listnames the Maltese at item 33 and the Toy and Miniature Poodle at item 42, and item 62 approves a cross of any two approved breeds. A Maltipoo qualifies by rule, which makes the HDB approved Maltipoo a settled question rather than a grey area. Our licence transfers to HDB homes, across 100+ placements, have never been flagged either. One dog per flat, AVS licence required. Thefull HDB guide walks through the proof and the rules.
From our shop to your sofa: the week-by-week timeline
The puppy vaccination schedule Singapore vets follow runs core jabs at weeks 6, 8 and 12, with deworming at every visit and an optional fourth jab at week 16 if the vet advises it. Your puppy goes home about a week after the second jab, at around week nine, and the annual booster starts from Year 1.
Renovating, travelling, or waiting for the flat to be ready? After a deposit we board your puppy free for up to one month, vaccinations continuing on schedule at our cost, and deliver when you are ready.
A first time dog owner in Singapore also needs one extra step: theAVS Pet Ownership Coursebefore the first licence; we point you to it during purchase so paperwork never delays the homecoming.
The timeline
- Week 6: first vaccination + deworming
- Week 8: second vaccination + deworming
- Week 9: puppy goes home (about a week after the 2nd jab)
- Week 12: third vaccination + deworming
- Week 16: optional 4th jab if the vet advises
- Year 1 onward: annual booster
Coats and colours
Apricot, mostly: what we actually place
Maltipoos come in white, cream, apricot and the occasional black, but what comes through our shop is overwhelmingly apricot, so an apricot Maltipoo for sale here is the norm rather than the exception, from pale cream-apricot to deep amber. Puppy coats usually lighten as they mature, so we show you the parents' colouring in person rather than promise a shade from a photo. Every shade lives in thecolour guide, and adult sizing in thegrowth guide.

Daily life with a 2 to 4kg dog in a Singapore flat
Plan the walk before the heat: fifteen to twenty minutes in the morning, then indoor play in the evening suits a toy Maltipoo fine. Feeding is three small meals a day for a young puppy, tapering to two, and the playpen from the kit anchors the daytime routine.
The coat is the real commitment. In our humidity, a few brushes a week keeps matting off and a professional groom every four to six weeks keeps the teddy bear cut tidy. Maltipoo grooming Singapore salons quote about $50 to $70 for a basic groom on a toy-sized dog and $80 to $130 for a full one. The daily 60-second eye wipe is what keeps apricot faces stain-free; see thetear-stain routine for the whole method and the grooming guide for the full coat playbook.
A first-time owner's week
- Morning: 15-minute walk before the heat
- Daytime: playpen routine with toys and water
- Evening: dinner, indoor play, lap time
- Few times weekly: brushing to stop matting
- Every 4 to 6 weeks: professional groom
- Daily: 60-second eye-corner wipe

From a Maltipoo family
"We'd been comparing breeders for weeks, and Curious Tails in Balestier stood head and shoulders above the rest. It was clear Nelson knew their stuff, as they were happy to help with even the small things and knew their stuff inside and out. Everything from the health records to the paperwork was handled seamlessly. The $500+ starter pack was such a generous surprise and got us set up right away. We couldn't be more pleased, an easy five stars."

If your puppy falls sick in the first five days, bring it back to us and we handle the care. That bring-back promise sits alongside free boarding for up to a month after deposit, the included trainer lesson, and ongoing care advice for as long as you need it.
Most of our WhatsApp threads stay active long after handover: food questions, grooming questions, the odd 10pm photo of a puppy asleep in the wrong bed. That is the part of the job we like best, and the reason families come back for their second dog.
Aftercare, in writing
- 5-day bring-back care if your puppy falls sick
- Free boarding up to 1 month after deposit

Frequently asked questions
How much does a Maltipoo cost in Singapore?
Maltipoo puppies at Maltipoo.sg are $3,288 to $5,988 all-in, depending on colour and adult size. That covers the 30-item starter kit, home delivery with playpen setup, the first training lesson, and the AVS licensing paperwork done at purchase. Around the market you will see anything from promo listings to five-figure imports, usually before extras.
Are Maltipoos HDB approved?
Yes, by rule. HDB’s approved list names the Maltese at item 33 and the Toy and Miniature Poodle at item 42, and item 62 approves a cross of any two approved breeds, which is exactly what a Maltipoo is. Across 100+ placements, our licence transfers to HDB homes have never been flagged either.
When can my Maltipoo puppy come home?
Around week nine, about a week after the second vaccination. Core jabs run at weeks 6, 8 and 12 with deworming at each visit, and an optional fourth jab at week 16 if your vet advises it. If your home is not ready yet, we board your puppy free for up to a month after deposit.
Can a Maltipoo be left alone while we are at work?
Honestly, this is not the breed for an empty weekday home. Maltipoos are attachment-dependent and want daytime company. They thrive with retirees, WFH owners, and households with a helper or grandparent at home. If everyone is out 8am to 6pm, a Cavapoo suits that routine better, and we will say so.
How big does a toy Maltipoo get?
The Maltipoos we place are toy-sized, finishing around 2 to 4kg full grown. That featherweight build is part of the appeal: lap-sized on the sofa, carrier-friendly on the MRT, and comfortable in any flat.
How much is the dog licence, and when is it due?
The AVS dog licence for your first year costs $13.50, because puppies go home at around nine weeks, under the five-month threshold. From five months an unsterilised dog is $81 a year; once sterilised it drops to $13.50 a year or a one-time $35 lifetime licence. We complete the paperwork with you at purchase.
How do I check a pet shop is AVS licensed?
Look the shop up on the AVS public registry of licensed pet shops on the NParks site. Curious Tails, the shop behind Maltipoo.sg, holds AVS licence AS24J00046. Verify it there before visiting us or anyone else.
Do Maltipoos shed?
Maltipoos are low-shedding, not non-shedding. The Poodle side keeps loose hair in the coat rather than on your sofa, which is also why regular brushing and grooming matter. No dog is truly hypoallergenic, so allergy-sensitive buyers should meet the puppy in person first.
Checking Maltipoo adoption Singapore shelters first is a fine instinct; rescues rarely have toy crosses, but look before you buy. Most Maltipoo SG searches end at a listing page; ours ends at a real shop you can walk into. Every Maltipoo puppy Singapore families take home from us starts at 2 Balestier Road #01-701, a short walk from Novena MRT, with paid parking behind the block. Weekdays 12pm to 6pm, weekends 10am to 6pm, viewings by appointment. Come on a weekend morning, meet the puppies, and take your time; honest advice costs nothing here.
