An Introduction To Cockapoos by Simon James - HTML preview

Size and weight

The United Kingdom and The United States have by far the two largest populations of Cockapoos. Sizes will vary sizes according to the type of Poodle used in the breeding pair, but the following are fairly reliable standards.

• Standard or Maxi Cockapoos are at least 15 inches / 38.1 cm in stature and weigh more than 19 lbs. / 8.61 kg

• Miniature Cockapoos stand between 11-14 inches / 27.94-35.56 cm and fall in a range of 13-18 lbs. / 5.89-6.35 kg

• Toy Cockapoos tend to have a sturdy build and weigh up to 12 lbs. / 5.44 kg and can reach 10 inches / 25.4 cm

• Teacup Cockapoos stand under 10 inches / 25.4 cm and average less than 6 lbs. / 2.72 kg

Always ask what kind of Poodle was chosen to create the Cockapoo mix so you know how big your adult Cockapoo will be.
