As a mix between Cavaliers and Poodles, Cavapoos are sweet dogs that make great friends for kids, dogs, and other pets. Each pup’s personality will vary based on genetics and environment, but you can count on most Cavapoos to be loving dogs that stay glued to your side. Full-grown, they typically weigh 9-25 pounds and stand 9-14 inches tall.

Cavapoos are generally excellent with children of all ages. Cavapoos make great companions for anyone, from small kids to older couples. They’re friendly with strangers and get along well with dogs and other pets too. They're relatively quiet and don't bark much.

The Cavapoo needs exercise every day but nothing too strenuous. They will be happy playing inside, walking, fetching, or paying a visit to the dog park. If your Cavapoo is interested, dog sports and games like agility and rally can be another good way to get their energy out. Overall, their exercise needs are moderate.

Cavapoos are known for their soft, Poodle-like coat, though a few have the Cavalier’s longer, silkier, wavy coat. These pups come in a wide variety of colors, including gold, black, white, Blenheim (brown and white), or tricolor (black, white, and tan). The Cavapoo’s shedding will depend on their genes, as those with Cavalier fur will shed more, while those with a Poodle coat will hardly shed at all. Grooming-wise, this breed is moderate.

Cavapoos are best suited for apartments and smaller homes. These dogs are the perfect size for apartments, but if they live in a house, they should primarily stay indoors and around people. They are fairly easy to train.

France has been officially recognized as the Poodle’s country of origin, but the Poodle’s earlier ancestors came from central Asia. The German variety has probably influenced the modern breed most (‘Poodle’ is German for ‘splash’ or ‘puddle’). They typically weigh 10-15 pounds.

Miniature Poodles are generally excellent with children of all ages. The Miniature Poodle gets along well with other animals, other dogs, and children. Poodles are highly adaptable and make good watchdogs. They're fairly vocal dogs that bark regularly.

The Miniature Poodle requires less exercise then the Standard Poodle, but should be walked or allowed to play outdoors. It should do fine with apartment life. Overall, their exercise needs are high.

The Miniature Poodle has a distinctive fine, frizzy, wooly coat similar in texture to sheep’s wool. Solid white is most common, but the coat may also be solid grey, brown, apricot, or black. There are three distinct grooming styles for show Poodles: puppy clip, continental clip, and English saddle clip. Grooming-wise, this breed is fairly high-maintenance. Miniature Poodles are considered hypoallergenic, which can be a plus for allergy sufferers.

Miniature Poodles are best suited for apartments and smaller homes. They are highly trainable and eager to learn.
