Description
The Cockapoo is a cheerfully affectionate companion, a living teddy bear with an insatiable need for cuddles. They bounce through life with an endearing zest, always up for a game of fetch or a snuggle on the sofa. Their people-pleasing nature makes them highly trainable, eager to impress with their clever antics. While generally good-natured, some can inherit a touch of their Spaniel parent's boundless energy, requiring consistent engagement to keep their bright minds and busy paws content. They thrive on companionship, shadowing their favorite humans and blossoming into devoted, playful family members who bring endless joy and a dash of delightful mischief to any home.
