Apart from their coat, the Cockapoo also inherits the hypoallergenic coat, making them the perfect choice for sensitive pawrents

Cockapoos come in three different sizes, including the Toy Cockapoo, Miniature Cockapoo, and the Standard Cockapoo

However no matter the size, pups of this hybrid are great furry partners and can adapt well to both active and sedentary lifestyles

And while there are many advantages to having this hybrid, they are often criticized for being too yappy
