This page covers Poodles and Poodle crosses such as Cockapoos, Cavapoos and Labradoodles. The Royal Kennel Club describes the Poodle as a "glamorous, intelligent breed descended from European duck hunters". It says the breed was developed in Germany as a water retriever, and that the famous trim was practical, not just for show.
The facts on this page are for Poodles. A rescue dog is an individual, and many here are crosses. The rescue knows this dog's coat, grooming needs and energy, and how it behaves at home and on the lead, so ask them.
The Royal Kennel Club lists all three Poodle sizes as needing up to an hour of exercise a day, in town or country. The home it suggests differs by size. The Standard suits a large house with a large garden, the Miniature a small house with a small or medium garden, and the Toy a flat with a small or medium garden.
The Royal Kennel Club lists all three sizes as having a medium-length coat that does not shed, but that needs grooming every day.
The Royal Kennel Club asks breeders of all three sizes to have hips scored and eyes tested. It also asks Standard Poodle breeders to DNA test for von Willebrand disease (vWD1), Miniature Poodle breeders to DNA test for osteochondrodysplasia (OC) and progressive retinal atrophy (prcd-PRA), and Toy Poodle breeders to DNA test for prcd-PRA. It lists the lifespan of each size as over 12 years.
A rescue dog's parents may not have been health tested, so ask the rescue what vet checks the dog has had and whether any condition is known. Your own vet is the right person to advise on anything you notice later.
Whether a particular Poodle or Poodle cross can live with children, cats or other dogs depends on the dog, not the breed. Go by the rescue's own assessment, which is often noted on the profile.
The Royal Kennel Club recognises three Poodle varieties, differentiated by size: the Standard, the Miniature and the Toy. All three share the same breed standard.
Cockapoos, Cavapoos and Labradoodles are not among the breeds on The Royal Kennel Club's breed A to Z, so it publishes no breed facts for them.

Breed descriptions are general. Every rescue animal is an individual, so the rescue's own assessment of the animal comes first.

As of 30 September 2026, 1 poodle or doodle is listed for adoption in London on LocalPetFinder, from Battersea Dogs & Cats Home. Each profile links to the rescue, and you apply to adopt with them directly.
Not right now: none of the 1 listed in London is under a year old by its listed age. Puppies do get listed, so check back or look at the adults, whose rescues can tell you much more about their character.
The Royal Kennel Club lists all three Poodle sizes as not shedding, though the coat needs grooming every day. It publishes no such listing for Cockapoos, Cavapoos or Labradoodles, which are not on its breed A to Z, so ask the rescue about a particular cross.
Each rescue sets its own adoption fee. Battersea charges £230 for a dog over six months and £275 for a puppy under six months, Dogs Trust charges £300 for a puppy or adult dog in England, Wales and Scotland, and Blue Cross fees start from £235 for dogs aged 8 or over and £335 for dogs aged 1 to 7. The fee usually covers neutering, microchipping and first vaccinations, and each rescue confirms its own fee.
No. We don't list animals for sale. Every poodle or doodle on this page is with a rescue or rehoming centre, and rescues rehome animals rather than selling them, usually for an adoption fee: for example, Battersea charges £230 for a dog over six months and Dogs Trust £300. The fee usually goes towards vet work already done, such as neutering, microchipping and first vaccinations. In England, Lucy's Law has meant since 6 April 2020 that puppies under six months can't be sold by a third party such as a pet shop or dealer: you buy direct from the breeder or adopt from a rehoming centre.
Usually not. UK rescues normally ask for an adoption fee, which pays towards neutering, microchipping and vaccinations. Many rescue fees are under £500: Battersea charges £230 for a dog over six months, Dogs Trust £300, and Blue Cross from £235 for dogs aged 8 or over. An animal offered "free to good home" is usually a private advert rather than a rescue. All dogs in the UK must be microchipped by 8 weeks old, and in England, Wales and Scotland a dog can't pass to a new keeper until it is chipped, so ask to see the microchip details.
This page lists every poodle or doodle with the rescues we list in London and the places within it. Because there are only a few here, we also show poodles and doodles from rescues within 25 miles under "Also near London", each with its town and distance. You can also see poodles and doodles across England. Email alerts for new listings are coming soon.
