Breed Information

Overview

Both of the breeds that make up a Cavapoo are outgoing, loving, and playful. They don’t tend to make good watchdogs as they are more likely to greet everyone as a friend. But, they do make fantastic family companions as they make great playmates for children who are past the toddler stage and get along well with other pets. Although small, Cavapoos are relatively sturdy, but can be hurt by rough play, so any playtime with younger children should be supervised. Their sweet, gentle nature makes them a great companion breed. They also make great therapy dogs!

The Cavapoo is a cross between a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and a Miniature Poodle or between two Cavapoos. This designer breed became popular in Australia during the late 1990s. It is still one of Australia’s most popular dog breeds and is also a popular breed in both the US and the UK.

Although it is not currently recognized by the American Kennel Club (AKC), it is recognized by other dog registries and clubs. The American Canine Hybrid Club (ACHC), Designer Dogs Kennel Club (DDKC), Designer Breed Registry (DBR), and more all recognize the Cavapoo.
