Cock-A-Chon Activity Requirements
Cockapoos are a cross between Cocker Spaniels and Poodles. They are generally playful, happy, and outgoing. They love spending time with their family and like nothing better than to snuggle up on the couch. Like most small-breed dogs, Cockapoos don’t require a ton of exercise and can do well in an apartment. They do, however, like to go for walks and explore. If you are going to spend a lot of time at home, make sure your Cockapoo has lots of toys and playthings to keep them busy. If you are looking for a laid-back, couch potato companion, a Cockapoo might be the right dog for you. This sweet, affectionate little pup is ideal for someone who likes to spend time at home.
