Now I dont know if this has been stated, im not done reading through the 11 pages, but here is my opinion:
Cockapoos can be great dogs. But because they are a mix you never know what look or temperment you will get. I had a cockapoo growing up he was my first dog and he was gorgeous with a Cocker Structure and the curly Poodle hair. That was way before the ridiculous designer dog fads and he cost us 75 dollars.
While he was incredibly gorgeous he inhereted the worst from both breeds, speaking temperment wise. He was snappy, loud, agressive, dominant, whatever you want to call him, that was him. I joke he was the devil in a dog suit, but he was wonderful to me, never once bit me or growled at me.
There are no responsible mix breeders. No responsible breeder, no matter how much health testing will breed mixed breeds. They are no trying to establish a new breed, they are just in it for the money (or some other crappy excuse) You can NOT establish a new breed on only two breeds, and most of these dogs are purebred X purebred crosses yuou rarely see Mix X Mix breedings.
