Why A Cockapoos ?

Why choose a Cockapoo? We can share why we fell in love with this wonderful breed! If like me you love the traditional cocker spaniel with their abundance of energy but are looking for something that is allergy friendly and more suited to an indoor lifestyle with an affectionate, intelligent, and playful personality then there is no better option than a cockapoo. As a mix between a Cocker Spaniel and a Poodle, they inherit the best traits from both breeds—loyalty, intelligence, and an allergy-friendly coat. Cockapoos are playful, affectionate, and highly adaptable. They thrive in family environments and get along well with children and other pets.

Cockapoo Temperament

Cockapoos are known for their friendly and affectionate nature. They are social dogs that love meeting new people and other animals. Their gentle yet playful demeanor makes them excellent companions for families, singles, and seniors alike.

Thanks to their Poodle heritage, Cockapoos are highly intelligent and easy to train. They pick up commands quickly and enjoy learning new tricks. They are also known for their loyal and loving personalities, always eager to spend time with their owners.

Cockapoos Maintenance

Maintenance for a Cockapoo puppy will depend on the type of coat it inherits from its parent breeds. Cocker Spaniels tend to shed more than Poodles, so a Cockapoo’s coat may be wavy or curly and typically low to non-shedding. Regular grooming is essential to prevent tangles and matting, especially for those with curlier coats. Brushing should be done several times a week, or even daily for thicker, denser fur. Their nails should also be trimmed regularly to avoid discomfort and overgrowth. Additionally, Cockapoo puppies will need their coats trimmed every few months to keep them looking neat and to maintain a comfortable length.
