Dog crossbreed From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Cavapoo (American English) or Cavoodle (Australian English) is a crossbreed of a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and a Poodle. The cavapoo is speculated to have been first bred by designer dog breeders in Australia in the 1950s[1] as a companion dog with similar traits to the cockapoo, but at a smaller size.[2]

Cavapoos can come in many colors including white, golden, brown, and black, often with a contrasting, white tuft on their chests.[1] They can even be tricolored in the vein of Calico cats. The Cavapoo is known for being Hypoallergenic, as they rarely shed or drool. The hypoallergenic trait is found primarily in F1 Cavapoos (50% King Cavalier 50% poodle). They are very energetic around humans and even cats. They are said to be a great choice for a family, and to be very intelligent and trainable. Less desirable traits such as an urge to assert dominance upon other dogs and issues with potty training have been reported.
