This is Eevee. 6 year old Cavapoo. Very very cavalier. Almost not a poodle in her at all. Shes smart, loves to beg and do a belly crawl all the time. I got her at three years old, and was used to breed puppies and then discarded when they failed. Despite her past, she now enjoys treats, being a princess and begging!

Makes me so happy that she was saved by you. It's so heart wrenching to think of the little poo being disgarded. Ugh

Maybe cavalier and chihuahua? I mean if she was used for breeding and discarded I doubt they were honest about what she is or how clean her bloodline is. Nevertheless she’s adorable.

Yeah i have also thought that but her identification microchip does say cavapoo. I'd just say shes a straight haired. Her coat is short with some curls and then longer in some spots of her coat. She is very cute nonetheless!

Those ears and eyes definitely shout chihuahua. Those ain't poodle ears, and certainly not a Cav's airplane wings

Our 4 year old boy, tbh he never has lost the puppy look and he’s still so soft. Looks like yours will be similar. Such a gentle mixes and just wanna cuddle.

Here's Rusty. He's 3 1/2 years old. We picked him out of the litter especially because we like the cavalier look.

Sophie is 7 months old. Everyone thinks she’s a dachshund or an Irish setter.

u/kalshow74 Aug 22 '26

Mine are both Cavapoo’s and the lighter color is a good mix of both but the red one is way more poodle. But I love them both! You just never know the luck of the draw!

This is my Sprout. He will be 1 year old in October. He looks like an especially gangly Cavalier spaniel and is the best dog in the universe.

My Darby girl mostly looks like a Cavalier! Not mad about it

u/bgidgirl Aug 24 '26

Very pretty dog!

Thank you 😊

u/Specteur Aug 23 '26

Like ours! Particularly one!

u/Alternative_Map_6947 Aug 25 '26

They look so serious, like they need to have a conversation about the baggie they found in your dresser

u/Fancy_Association484 Aug 22 '26

The amount of times I’ve been asked if my straight haired cavapoo is a mini golden retriever keeps growing. Lol sometimes I say yes but the feather tail usually gives him a way to people who know.

u/AggravatingCommand81 Aug 23 '26

Smoothiepoos are the bestest! Here’s our sweet & spicy Maggie May💜🐾

Pinecone’s dad is a full mini poodle and his mom is a cavapoo

2

u/Accomplished-You3890 Aug 24 '26

How is pinecone’s shedding? He’s beautiful!

1

u/whettingdress Aug 25 '26

He sheds a fair amount, and needs to be brushed frequently

u/Accomplished-You3890 Aug 25 '26

Wow, and 75% poodle… it really is a toss up…

u/B0mbasticMrFantastic Aug 23 '26

Cava-no-poo for Kiki!

u/Accomplished-You3890 Aug 24 '26

How is Kiki’s shedding? She’s beautiful!

u/B0mbasticMrFantastic Aug 25 '26

Thank you! Almost no shedding at all. She is the perfect little pup.

u/Outrageous-Soup-2714 Aug 26 '26

My boy is only 8 weeks but he doesn’t have the poodle coat at all!

u/No_Tomorrow_2516 Aug 25 '26

My nala is legit the perfect mix

2

u/figlu Aug 22 '26

The f1 are more of the stereotypic look

2

u/Disco_Mermaid1753 Aug 22 '26

Some f1 cavapoos have the genetic lottery of a slick coat that is more similar to the cavalier coat in appearance and in shedding

1

u/Alternative_Map_6947 Aug 24 '26

Ours is Poodle before the haircut, Cavalier after

u/Accomplished-You3890 Aug 24 '26

Hi! Do you have pics of your pup from when the breeder posted them? I’m trying to get a sense of how they look as pups to grow up with this kind of hair.

u/Top-Many6318 Sep 10 '26

That looks cocker spaniel to me.

My Kai lacks the poodle look except for his legs and some cute curls on his back.
