8 Unique Doodle Breeds
Bolonoodle
A Bolonoodle is a cross between a purebred Bolognese and a poodle. This breed is still quite rare, but it is becoming more popular as people learn about it. Bolonoodles are intelligent, loyal, and loving dogs that make great companions. They are also very low-shedding, making them a good choice for people with allergies.
Bolonoodles are generally smaller dogs with floppy ears that hang down from the sides of their head. Generally, Bolonoodles will inherit the all-white coat (similar to the Bolognese purebred dog), but they can also get specific coloration from their poodle parent.
Cairnoodle
A Cairnoodle is a cross between a Cairn Terrier and a poodle. This breed of dog is still quite rare, but it is becoming more popular as people learn about it. Cairnoodles are intelligent, loyal, and loving dogs that make great companions. They are also very low-shedding, making them a good choice for people with allergies.
Cairnoodles generally have the shaggy coat of their Cairn Terrier parent, but they can also inherit the curly coat of their poodle parent. They come in a variety of colors, including black, white, brown, red, and silver.
Doxiepoo
A Doxiepoo is a cross between a Dachshund and a poodle. They’re also sometimes referred to as a Dachdoodle, Doxiedoodle, Doxiepoodle, Dachshunddoodle, or Dachshundpoo.
Not much information is known about how this breed came to be, and Doxiepoos can be quite unpredictable in nature (even within their own litter). They’re warm and loving, clever and playful, and they have an enormous potential for finding your attention.
Flandoodle
A Flandoodle is a cross between the Standard Poodle and the Bouvier des Flandres. This is a very new crossbreed, only having been around since the early 2000s. Flandoodles are still quite rare, but they are becoming more popular as people learn about them.
Flandoodles are large dogs, typically weighing between 70 and 90 pounds. They have thick, double coats that can be either curly or wavy. Their coat colors can vary widely, but the most common colors are black, brown, and white.
Mastidoodle
A Mastidoodle is a cross between the Mastiff and the Standard Poodle. Mastidoodles are large dogs, typically weighing between 100 and 150 pounds.
The Mastidoodle is a fantastic family pet, as they are gentle and good natured around kids and other animals. They love spending time with their human pack members, making them perfect companions for walks or runs. They’re also known for being obedient and well-behaved, so they may be the perfect companion for someone looking for a fun-loving big dog!
Doberdoodle
A Doberdoodle is a cross between the Doberman Pinscher and the Standard Poodle. They have a long neck and legs, similar to both their parents. The Doberdoodle has almond-shaped brown or hazel eyes, depending on the breed. It can also have a black or brown lengthy muzzle, floppy ears, and a fluffy tail, according to its breed.
The Doberdoodle has a coat that falls somewhere between short and medium in length, and it can be any of brown, white, black, red, gray, or blue. However, exactly how curly or smooth the coat depends on which parent breed – Poodle or Doberman – it takes after most genetically. Generally speaking though, the coats of Doberdoodles are water resistant.
Pit Boodle
A Pit Boodle is a cross between the American Pit Bull Terrier and the Standard Poodle. The result is a dog that has the best of both worlds – the loving, loyal personality of an American Pit Bull Terrier combined with the low-shedding coat of the Standard Poodle.
The Poodlepit is a loyal and easily trainable dog, inherited with the strength of a Pitbull and the intelligence of its Poodle ancestor. Though somewhat of an unusual breed, this designer dog makes for a great companion.
Sheltiedoodle
A Sheltiedoodle is a cross between the Shetland Sheepdog and the Standard Poodle. The result is a small to medium-sized dog with a shaggy coat that can come in many different colors.
Sheltiedoodles are intelligent, active dogs that need regular exercise and mental stimulation. They are very loyal and loving towards their family and make great companions.
Affenpoo
An Affenpoo is a cross between the Affenpinscher and the Poodle. The Affenpoo is a small dog, typically weighing between 8 and 25 pounds. The Affenpinscher is a hardy, wiry-haired dog with a strong physique type. The Poodle can be classified into three sizes: tiny, miniature, and standard. The particular mix of parents will determine your Affenpoo’s size; this may be significantly influenced by the parent Poodle cross.
