Do you have a Papitese? Tell us more about his/her personality & your dog could be famous!
The Papitese or, Maltese Papillon mix, is a cross between a Papillon and a Maltese.
These hybrid dogs are recognized by the
American Canine Hybrid Club and can be registered on their website.
They are one of the rarest Maltese mixes,
but are becoming more popular because of their loyalty and affectionate personality.
Personality
A Papitese takes on the temperanment of both Papillons and Maltese. They are gentle, responsive, and very sociable little dogs. Papitese are also highly
intelligent and easy to obedience train. Be sensitive while training though, because harsh words can easily upset them. They love to be around people,
dogs, cats and any other pets. They are alert watch dogs, but welcoming to most strangers. Most people find Maltese Papillon dogs to have a cheerful,
affectionate, and loyal personality.Read what actual Papitese owners say about their dogs personalities.
Appearance
The Papitese comes in almost any color, including cream, gold, white, silver, blue, and black. Most are parti (two colors) or tricolor (three colors).
Hair is usually wavy, soft, and double-coated; with both an outer and undercoat.
Papitese may also be nonshedding like a Maltese or shed very lightly like a Papillon. Although some do shed, they are almost always hypo allergenic.
Full grown Papitese average 9-12 lbs, about 3-4 lbs larger than a purebred Maltese.
