It might sound like something you’d order in an Italian restaurant, or the sound that someone makes when they sneeze.
But the Bolonoodle and the Chipoo are among the designer crossbreeds that are surging in popularity, experts have revealed.
Poodle mixes are becoming increasingly fashionable thanks to their fun-loving, highly intelligent and gentle temperaments.
They also have hypoallergenic coats which don’t tend to shed – a lifesaver for those with allergies or who don’t like dog hair on the sofa.
While the Cockapoo and Havapoo are some of the most common mixes, there are some lesser-known ‘Oodle’ crosses which are guaranteed to make you smile.
The Bolonoodle, for example, is a cross between the Poodle and the Bolognese dog breeds. The result? A fluffy, affectionate hybrid dog with an excellent name.
The Pomapoo, meanwhile, is a mix between a Poodle and a Pomeranian. The adorable crossbreed is small and intelligent and, while it is still not common in the UK, it is growing in popularity.
The Pugoodle, or Pugapoo, is a cross between a Pug and a Poodle, while the Twoodle is an impressive mix of a Teddy Bear Schnoodle and an English Goldendoodle – a mouthful for even the most avid dog lover.

Those who love a Scottish Terrier may be interested in a Scoodle. This is the result of crossing the breed with the Poodle.
Also known as a Scottie Poo, they are highly intelligent as well as being energetic and playful. Experts have described them as ‘stubborn at times’ – but they are generally easy to train.
Next, the famous Chihuahua turns into a Choodle or a Chipoo when crossed with a Poodle.
Weighing in typically between five to 15 pounds (2.3-6.8kg) and standing at around six to 10 inches (15-25cm) tall, they are ideal for households seeking a small-sized companion.
A cross between a Jack Russell Terrier and a Poodle creates a Jackoodle or Jackapoo, while a Havanese-Poodle mix is called a Havoodle or Havapoo.
Finally a Westipoo – a charming little dog with a big personality – is the result of a cross between the Poodle and a West Highland White Terrier.
The amusing dog names have been revealed by Australian pet travel company Skye Pets.
It analysed data from online searches related to the adoption, rescue and ownership of these ‘Oodle’ breeds and found that searches for Bolonoodles have boomed by 400 per cent in the last three months.

Meanwhile a new wave of crossbreeds is beginning to attract attention through Google search trends, it found, and are being referred to as ‘breakthrough breeds’ due to their recent emergence online.
Those that might become popular in 2026 include the Shih-Poo (Shih Tzu x Poodle), the Yorkie Oodle (Yorkshire Terrier x Poodle) and even the Whoodle (Wheaten Terrier x Poodle), it said.
‘We’ve definitely seen a rise in Oodle-type dogs travelling with us,’ Joanna Maddison, founder of Skye Pets, said.
‘Our recommendation for anyone looking to become a parent to an Oodle-mix one day is to always try to adopt or rescue first.
‘If that isn’t possible, we encourage all Oodle-lovers to only select ethical breeders.’
A separate study, carried out by the Royal Veterinary College (RVC) in London and published in 2023, revealed the 150 most common mixes in the UK.
Unsurprisingly Cockapoos – a cross between a Cocker Spaniel and a Poodle – claimed the top spot.
But others included in the list were the Pomsky (Pomeranian x Siberian Husky), the Tibetan Puff (Tibetan Terrier x Chinese Crested Powder Puff) and the Bug (Boston Terrier x Pug).

Commenting on the study at the time Dr Dan O’Neill, Associate Professor in Companion Animal Epidemiology at the RVC and lead author of the paper, said: ‘With 800 dog breeds available in the UK, this VetCompass study shows there are still plenty of healthy breeds to choose from that do not suffer from extreme body shapes such as flat faces, skin folds or absent tails.
‘Despite this, many UK owners are still persuaded by social influences and trends into acquiring dogs with extreme body shapes that are likely to result in serious health issues during much of their dogs’ lives.
‘The advice is to stop and think before buying a dog with an extreme body shape.’
