We had a Cockapoo who died on Saturday, yes it is hard, and we are looking for another similar dog. One problem is that she was somewhat different looking from most Cockers I have seen. She seemed to be more cocker than poodle. She had a longer snout than usual, black, mostly straightfur and a white chest blaze just like a cocker. In fact even at 10 years old she was often mistaken for a cocker puppy. If anyone knows of a breeder with this kind of Cockerpoo we would really like to hear about them.
