Chihuahua poodle mix is not a purebred dog and like most designer dogs, it is generally referred to by the portmanteau name of Chipoo. Other less popular names of the Chihuahua poodle mix are Choodle and Wapoo.

There is a difference between purebred dogs and designer dogs like the Chipoo. Purebreds are dogs that have been bred over a long period of time to the point where a particular breed’s makeup is well known and predictable. For instance, a Chihuahua and a poodle are both purebred and therefore you know how big the pups will grow to be, the looks, the sort of care and training, the temperament, whether it’s good for herding, guarding, sporting, hunting.

On the other hand designer dogs like the Chipoo are relatively new and you cannot be certain how a particular pup will turn out even pups from the same litter. Their general makeup is determined by their parent breeds and it is difficult to tell which of the parent breed will be dominant and in which aspect of a particular pup’s life.

While most designer dogs of the same cross breed will generally look alike and share a lot of in common this is not guarantee and a particular pup may turn out differently. To get a good handle on a particular cross breed like a Chipoo, one must have a decent knowledge of the parent breeds.
