Breed Information
Overview
This mixed dog breed is playful, affectionate, and cheerful. They adore meeting new people and pups, but will need plenty of socialization at a young age. Westiepoos are also intelligent, loyal, sweet, and loving. These characteristics make them perfect for a medium-sized or growing family.
The Westiepoo tends to be wonderful with children, but can be somewhat protective around strangers. This outgoing and social dog breed can be prone to barking because of their protective streak. But, they can be trained to calm down quickly and quietly if given positive reinforcement and patience.

This breed is recognized by the ACHC (American Canine Hybrid Club) and is considered a designer mixed breed. Before deciding if you should add a Westiepoo to your family, you should research both dog breeds separately and make comparisons. You may also want to research Westiepoo owners’ opinions of their dogs.
