Scoodle History

The Scoodle is a mixed-breed dog that is part Schnauzer, part Cocker Spaniel, and part Labrador Retriever. The Scoodle is a cross between a Schnauzer, Cocker Spaniel, and Labrador Retriever. The Breeder’s Group for the Scroodle was created in 2007. As of 2017, there are over 3,000 registered and unregistered (“backyard”) scoodles. The origins of this hybrid are difficult to nail down.

Scoodle Activity Requirements

The Scoodle is a cross between a Poodle and a King Charles Spaniel. They are a highly intelligent and devoted companion. While they don’t require as much daily exercise as other breeds, they do need regular interaction. A daily walk or a few play sessions with your Scoodle is enough to keep this intelligent and sensitive dog happy. You should avoid overexerting your dog, especially while they are still growing. A puppy should have limited jumping or roughhousing until they are fully grown. If you are looking for a small, smart, and low-maintenance companion, the Scoodle may be the right dog for you. Just keep in mind that they do require regular social interaction and affection.
