Wow. The closed mindedness in this thread surprise me.
I, for one, would never buy a "cockapoo" or any other poo mix, just because poodles do not interest me.
But, I will never condemn anyone who has actually found a
responsible breeder, and then purchased from those breeders. And yes, there are some very rare responsible poo breeders out there. They are hard to find, but you can. And Tinaweena is proof of that. Others may have looked down on you and questioned you on this thread, but I want to thankyou for for looking into finding a good breeder and not supporting those awful bybs. GOOD for you!
BTW, someone said something about the ridiculous cutesy names. Actually, you will find the majority of responsible labradoodle breeders HATE that their dogs are called this, and want it changed.
But, with all this said, I do HATE the awful bybs and puppymills irresponsibly producing dogs for money. I just simply will not carelessly judge and attack all poo-mix owners and breeders and put them all into one awful category.
