Maltipoo Registration Papers — Get Official Papers for Your Maltipoo
-
The Maltipoo (also spelled Maltepoo) is a designer breed created by crossing a Maltese with a Poodle — most commonly a Miniature or Toy Poodle. One of the most popular small designer dogs in the United States, Maltipoos are prized for their gentle temperament, low-shedding hypoallergenic coat, and compact size. They typically stand 8 to 14 inches tall and weigh 5 to 20 pounds depending on the Poodle parent used. Coat colors range from cream, white, and silver to apricot, red, and parti-color. Maltipoos have a lifespan of 10 to 15 years and are well-suited for apartment living, families with children, and senior owners alike.
-
Because Maltipoos are a crossbreed — a mix of Maltese and Poodle — the American Kennel Club (AKC) does not register them. This applies to all Maltipoos regardless of generation (F1, F1B, F2, or Multigen) or how thoroughly the breeding has been documented. There is no path to AKC registration for any Maltipoo or Maltipoo mix. Designer Kennel Club (DKC) was established specifically to serve designer and hybrid breed owners like Maltipoo owners who need official registration papers and cannot obtain them through AKC.
-
Designer Kennel Club provides official registration papers and ownership documentation for Maltipoos, Maltipoo litters, and Maltipoo breeding programs. DKC Foundation Dog Registration ($65) accepts any Maltipoo or Maltipoo mix without existing papers, pedigree, or lineage documentation. For breeders, DKC Litter Registration ($100) gives each puppy in the litter an individual registration number that new owners can use to register their puppy for $45 through DKC Puppy Registration. The entire process is completed online with no prior documentation required.
