The Cockapoo, a mix of Poodle and Cocker Spaniel, is known for the Cocker Spaniel's affectionate and the Poodle's intelligence and hypoallergenic coat. They come in many sizes, coat colors, and textures, thanks to the Poodle's influence. Cockapoos are playful, sociable, and make excellent family pets, getting along well with children and other animals. This breed, dating back to the 1960s, is one of the original 'designer dogs.' Their low-shedding coats make them a good choice for allergy sufferers, and their friendly nature and eagerness to learn make them both trainable and affectionate companions.
