Maltipoo puppies in Kolkata

A Maltipoo puppy costs ₹25,000–₹45,000 in Kolkata as of August 2026. Because it is a cross rather than a recognised breed, price varies considerably with coat type and size, and there is no pedigree standard to price against.

No — it is a deliberate cross between a Maltese and a Poodle, not a KCI-recognised breed. There is no breed standard and no pedigree registration. Anyone offering you KCI papers for a Maltipoo is selling you something that does not exist, and that is worth knowing before you pay.

Very little, which is the main reason people choose them. The trade-off is that the coat keeps growing and mats without a clip every six to eight weeks. Low shedding always means higher grooming.

Less predictable than a pure breed. A first-generation cross inherits from both parents in whatever proportion chance decides, so size and coat vary noticeably even within one litter. Ask to see both parents to get the realistic range.

With considerate children, yes — they are affectionate and playful. They are small and light-boned, so families with toddlers are usually better served by something sturdier. They dislike being left alone all day.

A professional clip every six to eight weeks at ₹1,200–₹2,000, plus brushing two or three times a week. Curlier coats mat fastest and hold monsoon damp longest, so a shorter summer clip is worth it.

Small measured meals three times daily to four months, then twice. Budget ₹1,000–₹1,800 a month. Watch for dental crowding as they mature — weekly tooth brushing is worth the habit.

Generally yes — the Poodle side brings real trainability and the Maltese side brings eagerness to please. House-training takes the usual toy-breed patience. They are sensitive, so keep sessions short and positive.

Luxating patella from both parent breeds, dental crowding, and coat or skin problems if grooming is neglected. Ask whether both parents have had patellas checked, since neither parent breed is free of it.

DHPPi at six to eight weeks, boosters at ten to twelve and fourteen to sixteen weeks, anti-rabies from twelve weeks, and deworming from two weeks, recorded with dates and batch numbers — the same schedule as any pedigree puppy.
