As a breed of dog originally bred from crosses between the King Charles Cavalier Spaniel and the Poodle, the Cavapoo dog is typically a friendly smaller dog with the lovely, soft, and waterproof non-shedding coat of the Poodle and the calm personality of the Cavalier.
This great personality usually means that the Cavapoo is incredibly easy to train.
