A mix of both the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and the poodle, the cavapoo (sometimes called Cavadoodle or Cavoodle) is a small dog breed with soft, curly or wavy fur that was first bred in Australia. With parents from the AKC's toy and non-sporting groups, this lovable and compact dog is known for its companionable nature.
The playful, easygoing personalities of these dogs make them a great fit for most families with children.
Cavapoos are intelligent, highly trainable, and eager to please their owners. This breed can easily be trained (starting as early as 12 weeks of age) in basic obedience with positive reinforcement-based training. Marking the desired behavior with a treat or praise can help reinforce good behavior.
