Teddy bear trims, mat-free coats and calm puppy introductions.
Cockapoos are one of the dogs we groom most often. Their soft, low-shedding coats are lovely to live with, but because loose hair stays in the coat rather than falling out, they tangle and mat quickly without regular grooming.
A cockapoo coat can be anything from loose waves to tight poodle curls, and it keeps growing. The areas that mat first are behind the ears, under the collar, in the armpits and on the legs. As the adult coat comes through, usually somewhere between six and twelve months old, matting can build up very quickly.
Every four to eight weeks for a full groom, depending on how short you keep the coat and how much brushing you do at home.
Most cockapoos need a full groom every four to eight weeks. Shorter trims can go a little longer between visits.
Early, short visits help most. Once your vet confirms your puppy is ready, a gentle puppy introduction helps them get used to grooming before the adult coat grows in.
Cockapoos shed very little, so loose hair stays in the coat and tangles with the growing hair, especially where collars and harnesses rub.
