Are Cockapoos high-maintenance?

Yes, Cockapoos can be considered high-maintenance simply because of their coats. They require daily brushing and a regular grooming routine made up of combing, trimming, and baths, without which their coat will easily mat. Cockapoos need their long and floppy ears regularly cleaned, too. 

Cockapoos are easy to handle and have a great temperament, but may have separation anxiety, so early socialization and training is key. Give your Cockapoo two 30 minute walks a day for them to stay healthy and stimulated. 

While Cockapoos do require some maintenance, with regular grooming, exercise, and veterinary care, Cockapoos can make wonderful and relatively easy to handle companions for individuals and families alike.
