What is the difference between First and Second Generation Cavoodles

Published 14 July 2023

Buyers be ware! Know what you are buying when you choose a First or Second Generation Cavoodle.

What is the difference?

A First Generation Cavoodle, typically has a pure bred King Charles Cavalier mum and a pure breed Poodle father.

This means the First Generation Cavoodle puppy has a 50/50 genetic mix of the King Charles Cavalier and Poodle in its gene pool.

A Second Generation Cavoodle, typically has a First Generation Cavoodle mum and a pure bred Poodle father.

This means the Second Generation Cavoodle has a 25% King Charles Cavalier and 25% Poodle genetic mix.

Poodles come in 3 sizes. The smallest is the Toy Poodle which grows to approx 35cm tall. The mid sized one is the Miniature Poodle and the largest is the Standard Poodle.

All Poodles have a wool coat and do not shed.

This is why many customers prefer a Second Generation Cavoodle, to minimise the likihood of your puppy shedding.

Fluffy Puppies only breeds with TOY Poodles which is the smallest Poodle.

This means that Fluffy Puppy’s Cavoodles only grow to approximately 35 to 40cm tall, which is approximately human knee height. This is a size that can live indoors or outdoors or a combination of both. If you want your Cavoodle to live indoors, you would need to take your Cavoodle for a walk each day, which is great exercise for both of you!
