Maltipoo rescue dogs and puppies for adoption and rehoming in the UK

As of 8 November 2026, 1 Maltipoo is listed for adoption in the UK on LocalPetFinder, from Barnsley Animal Rescue Charity. Each profile links to the rescue, and you apply to adopt with them directly.

As of 8 November 2026, Barnsley Animal Rescue Charity (at Barnsley): 1. The newest was added on 6 October 2026. Each profile links to the rescue, which handles the adoption.

With the rescue that has the dog. Today the Maltipoos on this page are with Barnsley Animal Rescue Charity (1). Open a profile and apply to that rescue: each one runs its own application, home check and adoption fee. We don't rehome animals ourselves.

No. A Maltipoo is a cross between a Maltese and a Poodle, and we found no UK charity, Royal Kennel Club or vet research page on the cross itself. The Royal Kennel Club's crossbreed guide says crossbreeds often mix their parents' traits, which makes a puppy "difficult to predict", so size, coat and temperament vary.

Not reliably. Doodle Trust says "No dog is allergy friendly", and that a Poodle cross may shed little or a great deal depending on the coat it inherits. If someone at home has allergies, ask the rescue whether you can spend time with the adult dog first.

It depends which parent it takes after. The Royal Kennel Club lists the Maltese as needing up to 30 minutes a day and the Toy Poodle up to an hour, and Doodle Trust says most Poodle crosses need 60 to 120 minutes plus mental stimulation. Ask the rescue what this dog is used to.

Plan for every day. The Royal Kennel Club suggests daily grooming for both the Maltese and the Toy Poodle, whose coats it lists as not shedding, and Doodle Trust says the teddy-bear look "requires significant grooming" in time and money.

No UK source covers the cross, so ask about the parents' conditions. PDSA lists luxating patellas, dental problems, heart disease and cataracts among others for the Maltese, and PDSA luxating patellas, progressive retinal atrophy and epilepsy for the Poodle. Ask the rescue what its vet has found, especially about knees and teeth.

There is no figure for the cross. The Royal Kennel Club gives both parents, the Maltese and the Toy Poodle, a lifespan of over 12 years. For a rescue dog, ask the rescue what it knows about its health.

Not a Maltipoo-only one we could find, but three UK-wide poodle-cross rescues rehome dogs across the country: Doodle Trust, DoodleAid and Doodle Rescue. None names Maltipoos on the pages we read, and you may need to travel to meet a dog. Maltipoos with the rescues we list are on this page.

No. The name of each cross joins its parent breeds: a Maltipoo has a Maltese parent and a Cockapoo a Cocker Spaniel parent, with a Poodle on the other side. Dogs Trust describes the Cockapoo as a cross between a Cocker Spaniel and a Poodle, and the UK-wide poodle-cross rescues rehome both.

It depends on the dog, not the breed. Most of the 1 Maltipoo listed in the UK today don't say either way, so ask the rescue. Where a profile says nothing, ask the rescue what age of children the dog could live with.

Each rescue sets its own adoption fee. Battersea charges £230 for a dog over six months and £275 for a puppy under six months, Dogs Trust charges £300 for a puppy or adult dog in England, Wales and Scotland, and Blue Cross fees start from £235 for dogs aged 8 or over and £335 for dogs aged 1 to 7. The fee usually covers neutering, microchipping and first vaccinations, and each rescue confirms its own fee.

No. We don't list animals for sale. Every Maltipoo on this page is with a rescue or rehoming centre. Rescues rehome animals rather than selling them, usually for an adoption fee: for example, Battersea charges £230 for a dog over six months and £275 for a puppy under six months, and Dogs Trust £300. The fee usually goes towards vet work already done, such as neutering, microchipping and first vaccinations. If you searched "maltipoo puppies for sale", the Maltipoos here are the rescue route: you apply to the rescue and pay its adoption fee, not a sale price.

Not here: we only list dogs with rescues, so every Maltipoo on this page is adopted for the rescue's fee, which usually covers vet work already done. Whether to buy is your choice. Adopting means the rescue can tell you what it knows about the dog's history and health before you apply. If you decide to buy, Dogs Trust's breed guides suggest talking to your vet first: they say some practices offer pre-purchase consultations on likely health conditions and rough costs.

Usually not. UK rescues normally ask for an adoption fee, which pays towards neutering, microchipping and vaccinations. Many rescue fees are under £500: Battersea charges £230 for a dog over six months, Dogs Trust £300, and Blue Cross from £235 for dogs aged 8 or over. An animal offered "free to a good home" is usually a private advert rather than a rescue. All dogs in the UK must be microchipped by 8 weeks old, and in England, Wales and Scotland a dog can't pass to a new keeper until it is chipped, so ask to see the microchip details.

Not right now: none of the 1 listed in the UK is under a year old by its listed age. Puppies do get listed, so check back or look at the adults, whose rescues can tell you much more about their character.

Not right now: none of the 1 listed in the UK is aged 7 or over by its listed age. Older Maltipoos do come into rescue, so check back. Some rescues charge less for older dogs: Blue Cross fees start from £235 for dogs aged 8 or over.
