Cavapoos
Meet the Cavapoo
A Cavapoo is a charming mix of a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and a Miniature Poodle. Sometimes called a Cavoodle or Cavapoodle, this hybrid combines the Cavalier’s gentle, golden-retriever-like personality with the intelligence and hypoallergenic coat of the Poodle. The result? A sweet, smart, low-shedding companion who fits beautifully into a wide range of lifestyles.
Why We Love Them
We were first drawn to Cavapoos because of their affectionate nature and adaptability. Their loving temperament, soft low-allergen coats, and intuitive personalities make them ideal family companions, therapy dogs, and emotional support animals. Whether you’re an active adventurer or a homebody, a Cavapoo is happy to be right by your side—on a hike, a paddleboard, or snuggled up on the couch.
Upcoming Cavapoo Litters
River, our beautiful Blue Merle Phantom Poodle, has been bred to a stunning and oh-so-sweet Multigen Cavapoo, Bullet for our very first litter of Cuddle Cavapoos.
River is 25 lbs and 16" at the shoulder, elegant and intelligent with a gentle, loving personality. Bullet brings that heart-melting Cavapoo sweetness and charm, making this pairing extra special. Together they will produce a slightly larger Cavapoo than our usual litters. This size is perfect for families with small children or anyone wanting that amazing Cavapoo temperament in a sturdier, less fragile package.
We are so excited about this litter and expect puppies with soft, wavy to curly coats, affectionate temperaments, and the perfect blend of cuddly companionship and playful energy.
Puppies will be Cuddle Cavapoos, likely in the 18–25 lb size range. All will be Tri color, Blue Merle Tri, or Red, with some white on chest and head!
River is due October 22nd, with puppies ready to go home just before Christmas around December 17th.
Misty, our sweet and snuggly Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, will be paired with our playful and goofy Miniature Poodle, Meeko for a litter of adorable F1 Cavapoos. Misty is the epitome of love and joy—her tail never stops wagging, and she lives for cuddles and companionship. Meeko adds a touch of fun with his sweet, lighthearted personality and playful demeanor. We’re so excited for this pairing, and we expect puppies with loving temperaments, soft coats, and the perfect mix of sweetness and spunk.
Puppies will be Miniature F1 Cavapoos likely in the 15-20 lb size range
Misty is due approximately November 20th and puppies would be ready to head home around January 15th.
We expect a beautiful variety of Tri color, Red and Blue Merle Tri, just like Meeko!

Energy Level
Cavapoos have a moderate energy level. They enjoy daily walks, backyard play, and the occasional outing, but they don’t need intense daily exercise to stay happy. These pups are naturally affectionate and thrive most when they’re included in everyday family life.
Important to note: Cavapoos are people-oriented and can develop separation anxiety if left alone for long periods. They do best in homes where someone is often around to give them love and attention.
Training & Temperament
Thanks to their Poodle roots, Cavapoos are smart, eager to please, and quick to learn—making them a breeze to train. They respond best to positive reinforcement like treats, praise, and consistency, and are sensitive to tone and gentle guidance.
From potty training to basic commands, they pick up routines quickly and enjoy mental stimulation like tricks or enrichment games. Their easygoing, affectionate nature makes them an ideal choice for first-time dog owners or families looking for a well-mannered companion.
They’re so known for being:
Exceptionally affectionate
Naturally intuitive and emotionally attuned to their people
Friendly with kids and other pets
Health & Lifespan
Cavapoos are generally a healthy breed with a lifespan of 12–15 years. Still, as with any breed, it’s important to be aware of potential health concerns:
Ear Infections: Their floppy ears can trap moisture, so regular cleaning is key.
Hip Dysplasia: A condition that affects joint development—our parent dogs are screened to reduce risk.
Heart Conditions: Cavaliers can be prone to heart issues, so we prioritize health-tested lines and regular vet checkups.
Common Health Considerations:
While these are common health issues for Borderdoodles, Pacific Northwest Doodles has bred out these issues in our puppies. Let us know if you have concerns about your puppy’s health.
The Pacific Northwest Doodles Health Promise
OFA and PennHIP certified
DNA-tested for breed-specific genetic conditions
Carefully selected for health, temperament, and structure
We also include a comprehensive two-year health guarantee and 30 days of complimentary pet insurance with every puppy.
Grooming & Care
Cavapoos have soft, wavy to curly coats that are low-shedding but require regular grooming. A consistent brushing routine and professional trims every 6–8 weeks will help prevent matting and keep them looking their best.
Their moderate coat means they need a little extra care in extreme weather:
In winter, a cozy sweater or jacket can help keep them comfortable outdoors.
In hot climates, avoid long sun exposure and make sure they stay hydrated and cool.
City or Country?
They’re Happy Anywhere!
Cavapoos are adaptable and thrive in both urban apartments and country homes—as long as they have people around and opportunities to play. They tend to do great in multi-pet households, with proper introductions and socialization.

How We Raise Our Cavapoos
