The Westipoo is a charming mix between a West Highland White Terrier and a Poodle, blending the Westie's bright, spunky personality with the Poodle's intelligence and low-shedding coat. These compact companions are friendly, playful, and affectionate, making them a wonderful fit for families, apartment living, and owners who want a dog that is easy to bring along on everyday adventures.

Westipoo puppies for Atlantic Canadian families
We work with families across Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island.
Quick answers to help families decide if the Westipoo is the right fit for their home.
What breeds do you offer?
We specialize in four low-shedding breeds: Cockapoos (Cocker Spaniel x Poodle, 15-20 lbs adult weight), Aussiedoodles (Australian Shepherd x Poodle, 25-40 lbs adult weight), Westipoos (West Highland White Terrier x Poodle, 15-25 lbs adult weight), and Goldendoodles (Golden Retriever x Miniature Poodle, 15-35 lbs adult weight). All four breeds are known for their friendly temperaments and low-shedding coats.
Do you have Schnoodles or American Cocker Spaniels?
We specialize exclusively in Cockapoos, Aussiedoodles, Westipoos, and Goldendoodles because these breeds offer the best combination of low-shedding coats, friendly temperaments, and manageable sizes for Atlantic Canadian families. While American Cocker Spaniels are one of our parent breeds, we do not sell purebred Cockers. If you're interested in Schnoodles, we recommend researching their higher grooming requirements and more active temperaments.
