The Havapoo is a small to medium-sized mix between the Havanese and Poodle. One of the most notable features of the Havapoo dog, also called the Havadoodle or Havanese Poodle, is their hypoallergenic coat, making them a suitable choice for individuals with allergies. As with all hypoallergenic breeds, including other “doodle dogs” or Poodle mixes, they aren’t entirely shed or allergy-free. Their coat can vary in texture and may be curly, wavy, or straight, depending on the specific generation of the crossbreed. Their height and weight vary based on the Poodle parent, as the Havapoo may be bred with a Toy Poodle, Miniature Poodle, or Standard Poodle.Known for their friendly and sociable personality, Havapoos are highly affectionate companions. They are also known for forming strong bonds with their owners. Havapoos are incredibly social and prefer to spend time around their humans. A highly sensitive breed, they don’t do well being left alone for too long. Additionally, Havanese Poodle mixes are intelligent, quick learners and respond well to training. With their playful demeanor and moderate energy level, Havanese Poodles are well-suited for apartment living and homes with yards as long as they receive regular exercise and mental stimulation. This smart, highly empathetic dog breed makes a great candidate for therapy or service dog work, particularly as psychiatric service dogs.
