Malt Shi-Tzu – Maltese cross Shi-Tzu 
Low exercise required, great indoor dogs
The choice for families with young children as well as older people
These dogs are great for people with young children or as companions for
older people. They don’t require a lot of exercise and are content with a
brief walk and spending the day lazing around. They make a great indoor
dog, as they only shed lightly and have an easy care coat requiring a little
brushing and clipping every six months.

environment. They are slightly more energetic and will enjoy a short run or some ball games.

Moodle - Maltese cross Poodle,
Schnoodle – Schnauzer cross Poodle
Cavoodle – King Charles Spaniel cross Poodle
Moderate exercise required, great indoor dogs
Suitable for families
These three breeds are very popular family pets. The Poodle is one of the world’s most
intelligent dogs and this is reflected on the behaviour of these crosses. Note that this
intelligence can sometimes lead to the dog being in charge, so these crosses need
firm training. They all have a moderate energy level and will enjoy short runs, walks
and games. The main advantage is the low maintenance coat thrown by the Poodle,
which also reduces shedding, making them great indoor dogs and better companions
for asthma and allergy sufferers.
Spoodle – Cocker Spaniel cross Poodle
Moderate exercise required, great indoor dogs
Great choice for families with children
Energetic, gentle and intelligent. The Spoodle was one of the original crosses to be
given it’s own title and has played a major role in the increasing popularity of what
are now know as ‘Designer Dogs’. They are one of the most popular and suitable
family pets, as they are low maintenance, low shedding and have a kind and
loyal nature. Thus making them a perfect choice for people with children.
Pure Cocker Spaniels and Cavockers – King Charles Cavalier Spaniel cross Cocker Spaniel
Moderate exercise required, great outdoor dogs

similar in appearance and nature. A pure Cocker Spaniel tends to be a little more
excitable than a Cavocker, which are generally a more gentle pet.
Both require some maintenance, especially around the ears, where long hair needs
some brushing or occasional trimming to avoid matting.

Pugaliers have a low maintenance coat and shed moderately.
Moderate exercise required, great outdoor dogs

as an inside dog.
Beagalie - Beagle cross King Charles Cavalier Spaniel

Perfect choice for families with children
These pups make great companions for children and families with a reasonable
amount of room. Like the Pugles, they are energetic, curious and require some exercise.

High exercise required, great outdoor dogs
Perfect choice for energetic owners
Pure Beagles were originally bred for hunting; it is part of their nature and it is very
important that the person buying them understands this. They have a friendly
nature and can make very rewarding pets, however, they require a huge
amount of work. Beagles require lots and lots of exercise, a big yard with secure
fences and something to entertain them constantly. They make a great companion
for someone who likes to jog regularly.
Labradors, Golden Retrievers, Labrador cross Golden Retrievers
High exercise required, great outdoor dogs
Great choice for owners with a lot of space
All large dogs require lots of exercise and room. Pure Labradors tend to be the most
active of the three dogs mentioned here. They have boundless energy and seem to
stay puppies well into their second or third year. Golden Retrievers and Lab cross
Golden Retrievers are slightly quieter, but still require a lot of dedication and can
also retain the characteristics and personality of a puppy well into adult life.
All three are extremely loyal and mature into great family pets. As with any dog,
they must be watched closely around young children, simply because they
tend to get very excited, causing them to be a bit boisterous.
