Whoodle (All Sizes) Puppies For Sale

Whoodles in both sizes

The Whoodle crosses a Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier with a Poodle. This page brings the sizes together so you can compare them in one place.

The Wheaten half is unusual

The Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier is an Irish farm dog, used as an all-purpose worker on smallholdings: herding, guarding, and controlling vermin. It is a terrier, but an atypically sunny one, and it is best known for two things.

The first is the coat, which is genuinely unlike most terrier coats. It is soft, silky, and wavy, closer to hair than to the harsh wiry texture the terrier group is known for, and it sheds very little.

The second is the greeting. Wheatens are famous for what owners call the Wheaten greetin’, a full-body, jumping-up, delighted welcome that they will happily give a stranger. It is charming and it needs training if you would rather not be jumped on.

Crossed with the Poodle, the result is a silky, low-shedding dog with a bouncy, sociable outlook and plenty of brain.

Picking a size

A standard Whoodle is a medium-to-large dog that needs real daily exercise and early work on manners, given the enthusiasm both parent breeds bring to greetings.

A mini Whoodle, built on a Miniature Poodle parent, is easier to manage physically and fits smaller homes, while keeping the same character. It is not a calmer dog, just a smaller one.

Adult size varies in any crossbreed, so ask us about the individual puppy’s parents rather than relying on the size label.

The coat, and how it changes

Whoodle coats run from wavy to curly and shed very little. That is the appeal, and the cost is regular grooming.

Brush three or four times a week in sections down to the skin, and comb through afterwards to find what the brush skimmed. Professional grooming every six to eight weeks.

Both parent breeds have coats that change significantly as the puppy matures, usually somewhere around eight months to a year, and the adult coat is more work than the puppy one. Owners who build the habit early sail through that transition; owners who leave it are often surprised. Behind the ears, under the front legs, and around the collar are the first places to check.

Keep the hair around the eyes trimmed and check ears weekly.

Training and energy

Both sizes are bright and quick to learn, and both are exuberant. Prioritize four things early: loose-leash walking, calm greetings, a reliable recall, and a settle on a mat.

Terrier heritage brings some prey drive, so a secure fence and a leash in open spaces are sensible. Poodle heritage brings the intelligence that needs occupying, so plan for training sessions and puzzle work alongside the walk.
