Reply to comment by sweatpantsprincess in TIL, canines have a more sensitive CFF of up to 80Hz or 80 flickers per second. "This might explain why most dogs cannot be planted in front of the television to engage them, it doesn't look real." by chandu6234

It's a very common Poodle crossbreed, with a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel .. one of the OG 'designer crossbreeds'. They are very similar to cockapoos.

They are controlled crossbreed from 'pure' breeds. E.g. most cavapoos are from a pure Poodle X pure Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. You do get some Cavapoos born from Cavapoo X Cavapoo, known as F2's .. but that's how you get recessive genes causing problems.

Most cavapoos are mix’s that are sold by puppy farmers. There isn’t that much control in their breeding. The breeders don’t keep those kind of records. Labradoodles are the only mixed breed that have that level of control and that’s because the breeders/clubs are trying to become a legitimate breed.
