History & Heritage

The Cavapoo originated in the late 20th century as a designer hybrid, crafted to blend the best of both parent breeds. With rising demand for hypoallergenic, family-friendly companions, breeders began crossing Cavaliers with Poodles to create a well-rounded, emotionally intelligent dog that could thrive in modern homes.
