Welcome to Choice Paws, your trusted Washington DC Cavapoo breeder offering healthy, well-socialized puppies that fit right into life across the District and surrounding suburbs. Cavapoos—an affectionate blend of Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and Poodle—thrive in DC’s dog-friendly scene, from apartments in Capitol Hill and Navy Yard to historic row homes in Georgetown and Dupont Circle. With low-shedding coats, adaptable temperaments, and a love for people, our Cavapoos are ideal companions for walks along the National Mall, jogs through Rock Creek Park, and relaxed evenings at home.
We follow best practices aligned with AKC Responsible Breeding, and prioritize health testing and early socialization so your puppy transitions smoothly into DC living.
Each Cavapoo puppy from Choice Paws comes with a comprehensive lifetime genetic health guarantee after undergoing thorough health checks and genetic testing. This ensures your new family member is prepared for a long, healthy life in the District, ready for everything from neighborhood walks to cozy evenings indoors.
We introduce our puppies to a wide variety of environments, people, and other animals from an early age. This extensive socialization builds confidence and friendliness that carries into adulthood. Learn more about our approach in The Importance of Puppy Socialization.
We provide ongoing support to new puppy owners in the DC area, offering resources and guidance for a smooth transition. Whether you’re navigating elevator etiquette or planning a visit to a dog-friendly café, we’re here to help. Read our guide on Puppy Training and Socialization Tips.
