Why Are Mini Cockapoo Dogs So Popular?
The Miniature Cockapoo is the most popular size of the Cockapoo breed. More searches are made for this size than the Teacup, Toy or Standard Cockapoo.
The Miniature Cockapoo is a cross between a Cocker Spaniel and a Poodle (usually a Toy Poodle). This means they tend to be smaller than a Standard Cockapoo, around 11-14 inches tall and weighing between 13-18 lbs. Cockapoos have a reliable reputation for being a affectionate and friendly family pet, making them one of the most popular dogs in the UK now accounting for 6.2% of the total dog population. (source Royal Veterinary College).
How Big Is A Miniature Cockapoo Full Grown?
Your breeder should be able to give you an accurate guesstimate about the size the miniature Cockapoo puppies will be when full grown, because the size of the parent dogs will be the determining factor. The normal height and weight ranges are:
- Height 12-15inches
- Weight 15-25 lbs
Mini Cockapoo Case Study
Ruby is “mini” cockapoo bred from a Toy Poodle dad (13 lbs) with a Miniature Cockapoo mum (17 lbs). Ruby is just one year and is now 12 lbs.
Miniature Cockapoo puppies
In the UK F1 Miniature Cockapoos are usually the result of breeding a ‘Working’ or ‘Show’ Cocker Spaniel with a miniature poodle.
Should I Get a F1 or F2 Miniature Cockapoo Puppy?
Some people are naturally attracted to searching for a F1 puppy. But does it make any difference? Probably not that much. The breeder will tell you they have more ‘hybrid vigour’ meaning they are more genetically pure. The second cross (F2) are generally a little cheaper and every bit as adorable.
Miniature Cockapoo Price
How much should you be paying for a mini Cockapoo is 2025?
Pets4homes is now the largest website listing and their prices range between £700-£2,000.
Cockapoo Owners, a listing site that specialises in Cockapoo Puppies is advertising a mixture of licensed and amateur breeders with prices ranging from £795-£1895.
Breeders with a good reputation often charge more but prices vary depending on factors such as over supply. After Corona virus there was a over supply of puppies and the bottom fell out of the market causes prices to drop dramatically.
Who Is The Ideal Miniature Cockapoo Owner?
The miniature poo is ideal for those people who maybe have a smaller living environment and want a less time intensive dog. The smaller size also comes with less grooming needs and less exercise requirements. Although all dogs need and love exercise, smaller dogs are easier as they just don’t need as much compared to the maxi or standard size Cockapoo.
They are certainly more of a lap dog than the large Cockapoos and perhaps just a smidgen more cute!
