cockapoos

Poodle-cocker spaniel mixes

Cockapoos are a crossbreed of cocker spaniel and poodle, bred to combine the poodle's low-shedding coat with the cocker spaniel's temperament.

Like other poodle mixes (labradoodles, goldendoodles), cockapoos gained popularity as "designer dogs" marketed as hypoallergenic pets, though no dog is truly allergen-free.
