Cockapoos are one of the UK's most beloved crossbreeds - intelligent, affectionate, and wonderfully adaptable. But their gorgeous curly coats need regular, skilled grooming to stay healthy and mat-free.

About the Breed

Cockapoo Coat & Grooming Overview

Cockapoos inherit their coat from their Poodle parent and typically have wavy to tightly curled fur that grows continuously rather than shedding. This makes them relatively low-allergen, but it also means that without regular grooming, the coat quickly becomes matted and uncomfortable.

A Cockapoo's coat can vary widely depending on which generation they are and which parent's coat they've inherited more strongly. At Woof Love & More, we're very experienced with Cockapoos and understand the nuances of their coat. Whether your Cockapoo needs a classic teddy bear cut, a shorter summer clip, or a breed-influenced Spaniel-style trim, we'll work with you to achieve the look you love while keeping the coat healthy.

We see Cockapoos regularly and truly love working with them. Their temperament is generally wonderful in the salon - curious, engaged, and often quite charming. A well-groomed Cockapoo is one of life's great pleasures.

FAQ

Cockapoo Grooming FAQs

Common questions about grooming Cockapoos at Woof Love & More in Grantham.

How often does a Cockapoo need grooming?

Most Cockapoos need a professional groom every 6–8 weeks. In between, regular brushing - ideally 3–4 times per week - is essential. Dogs with tighter curls may need more frequent salon visits.

What styles can you do for a Cockapoo?

We offer all popular Cockapoo styles including the teddy bear cut, puppy clip, lamb cut, and summer clips. We're also happy to do a more natural Spaniel-influenced style. Just show us a photo of the look you're going for.

My Cockapoo gets matted very quickly. What should I do?

Matting is common in Cockapoos, especially behind the ears, under the armpits, and around the collar. The key is brushing regularly with the right tools. If the coat is already severely matted, the most humane option is often to clip it short and start fresh. We can assess and advise.
