Arlo is a dark Ruby Parti a Cavapoo with a unique twist! Arlo has been carefully and selectively bred to retain a higher percentage of Cavalier in his genetic make-up, but still have the perfect curly fur that will in turn produce dream curls in his future puppies.
Arlo's mother is our prized Cavapoo female, Amelia (retired), and Arlo is also the grandson of our legendary F1B Reverse Cavapoo, Amedeo (retired). To understand the significance of this, we have to delve into some history! Amedeo (Arlo's grandfather), is a very special Cavapoo that was more "spaniel-like" in his appearance and he sported an "eye-brow" which gave him a quizzical look! So, not only did Arlo end up looking very much like his grandfather in this markings and size, but Amedeo's influence also means that Arlo is a very unique Cavapoo with more Cavalier King Charles Spaniel influence in the mix than would normally be present in this generation of Cavapoo. Arlo is genetically similar to an F2B Cavapoo in terms of the ratio of Cavalier and Poodle in his diverse genetic make-up, and he has 3 generations of health-cleared dogs behind him. This makes Arlo very unique and Arlo in his ability of being allergy-friendly with his beautiful Poodle-like curly coat, but he can produce everything from straighter and more Cavalier-like fur depending on who is bred to right up to very Poodle-like fur when he is paired with a Poodle. Arlo's contribution will help maintain a more even ratio in temperament between the Cavalier and Poodle in future generations, and his puppies will produce a wide range of puppies that will be suitable no matter your fur-type preference or allergy needs.
Arlo was born and raised here at Pleasant Meadows. He is a full son of Amelia and Samuel and a grandson of our legendary Cavapoo, Amedeo.
