Cockapoo (Designer Dog)
Dog
A Cockapoo can be the result of mating either the American Cocker Spaniel or English Cocker Spaniel with a Poodle, or of mating two Cockapoos. Sometimes they can mix of a cockapoo and a cocker spaniel or vise versa. That making it 75% poodle or cocker spaniel. They have been known in the United States since the 1950s. The earliest known dictionary reference was a 1960 OED citation.
Purebred breed associations such as the AKC, the UKC, and the CKC, do not recognize the Cockapoo, or any other crossbred, as a breed.
