A cockapoo is a cross between a cocker spaniel and a miniature poodle. A designer dog to many people and just adorable to others, a cockapoo is the ideal mix between a small and medium-sized dog for those who desire a unique canine companion.

Learn reasons to buy a cockapoo puppy; it's best to buy a cockapoo from a licensed breeder or a reputable seller so you know you are getting a healthy, authentic dog. You will want to get breeding certificates for both the mother and father of any puppy you get so you know you are receiving a cockapoo with healthy bloodlines on both sides.

Cockapoos aren't going to get large

Neither the cocker spaniel or the miniature poodle are large dogs, which means if you buy a cockapoo either as an adult or a puppy you won't be getting a large-breed dog. A cockapoo is an ideal companion for you if you are unused to larger dogs, don't have a lot of space for a dog to roam, or if you have children in the home and you worry about them getting knocked over.

Cockapoos are easy to groom

The miniature and standard poodles are known for their tightly curled hair that is both easy to maintain and hypoallergenic in nature. The cocker spaniel, on the other hand, is known for its silky and long fur that requires ample grooming to prevent matting. Put these two breeds together, and you have a dog that has beautiful and lush fur but doesn't require the same amount of grooming as a traditional long-haired dog.

All you have to do with a cockapoo is regularly comb hair when your dog gets dusty or wet. Periodic baths as recommended by your veterinarian are all you need to keep your cockapoo puppy looking and smelling nice.

Cockapoos are healthy

In general, when you buy a mixed breed dog you have a healthier canine companion. This is believed to be the case because most breeds of dogs have inbred qualities in them or very tight bloodlines to protect inherited traits, which can lead to declined health or genetic health issues. When you get a cockapoo, you essentially get a dog that is not a full-bred animal, even though your pet is given its own unique breed name. This means your dog is likely to be healthier than if you were to have gotten either a purebred dog of either the cocker spaniel or the poodle.
