A Cavoodle (also known as a Cavapoo) is a crossbreed between a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and a Poodle, known for their affectionate nature and low-shedding coats.
Cavoodles are family dogs through and through, often becoming very protective over their family. They will bond very strongly with everyone in the family and other pets around the home. They are fantastic with small children, as they aren’t large enough to cause harm during play.
Cavoodles crave affection and validation from their family they aim to please, and work hard to ensure that their owner is happy. Another reason why this breed is so nice and easy to train. The Cavoodle breed in general has a learning drive and capacity that is based around their enthusiasm to do right by their owners..
Cavoodles can be classed into two main categories, depending on what breed of Poodle they come from. Toy Poodles result in Cavoodles that stand at 28 – 35cm when fully grown, while Miniature Poodles breed Cavoodles that stand slightly higher at 33 – 45 cm. Height difference isn’t super significant between 10 and 20cm, but it helps when identifying the breed and classing of your Cavoodle.
