Meaning and background

The story behind Cavapoo

Cavapoo has an unusually direct connection to dogs: it is the established label for a cross involving the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and a Toy or Miniature Poodle. Unlike many invented-sounding choices, its construction is immediately explained by the two breed names. It can also be a pet's individual name, although the word by itself does not certify that animal's parentage.
