Our Cockapoos are 1st generation crossbred,
that is both parents are purebred within their breed, generally the Poodle
is the sire and the Cocker Spaniel is the dam. Adults
mature to 10 to 30 lbs. depending on the size of
the parents and the sex of the puppy.
Their hair grows very long and does not shed.
They generally require grooming every 2 to 4 months depending on the
desired length of hair. Since they do not shed, they are excellent
for families with allergies or asthma. They come in a variety of
colors: buff, red, chocolate, black, white, and a variety of parti-colors.
We tend to have mostly creams, buffs, reds and
some spotted varieties.
The temperament of my Cockapoos is very outgoing
and friendly. They get the intelligence of the Poodle, and the
sturdiness of the Cocker. The puppies are well socialized with
children, cats, and dogs. They are very playful, and they enjoy
fetching and playing with toys.

They are very patient and tolerant with children, and because they like to
play and
are durable, children like them.

If we have had one complaint about
our dogs, it is that they are too friendly.
They may bark to alert you of an intruder, but
they would probably go home with the robber!
