Find Reputable Cockapoo Breeders

Not all Cockapoo breeders offer the same sort of service and level of professional approach. While starting by looking at their website is a good move, you should be prepared to dig a bit deeper to find out more about their reputation.

For example, when you search for them online, do you generally see positive reviews about their service and their puppies? Or perhaps you see people complaining about being conned by them?

You can ask around in forums or dog clubs to see which breeders are particularly highly recommended and which should probably be avoided. Vets in your area might also give you some useful information about which companies can be trusted.

Consider the Size of the Cockapoo Breeders

The latest UK Government guidelines suggest that all dog breeders with 3 or more litters should be registered annually. At the time of writing, this isn’t yet the law, but it could very well be soon.

In this case, going with a registered and licensed breeder gives you peace of mind that you are dealing with a serious business. Registered breeders are inspected and licensed by the local authorities, meaning that you can feel more confident about the quality of their premises and the health of their dogs.

The big commercial breeders are often large businesses with many pups for you to look at. This is great when it comes to making a good choice, but maybe you will feel that their way of working is a bit too commercial and business-like for your taste.

At the opposite end of the scale, you may like the homely approach taken by small breeders who only offer a minimal number of Cockapoo puppies for sale UK each year. You won’t have as much choice with this breeder, but you may find it a more relaxed and enjoyable way of adding to your family.

Check Out Their Installations

Once you get to a breeder’s property, you want to ensure everything looks right. Is it a clean and healthy-looking place where you would feel confident that the puppies are well looked after?

If the setup doesn’t convince you, then it is worth checking out somewhere else to be able to compare the two. Indeed, even when you fall in love with the first puppy you see, it can make sense to look around at other breeders before making your final decision on the matter.

Prepare to Ask Plenty of Questions

If this is your first time buying a pup, then you will want to consider the questions you need to ask the breeders. To get started, you can ask them about the parents, whether they are healthy and whether you can see them together with the puppies.

Look for proof of any health tests that have been carried out. If you can’t see at least the mother with the pups, then this is a worrying sign that you will want to consider.

The more questions you can ask, the better, so try doing some online research to see what you should be asking. For example, you can ask if the puppies in the litter have had their vaccinations or any other type of treatment that you should know about.

Have they been given treatment for fleas and worms? If so, is there paperwork to back this up and to let you know the exact dates?

You can also ask whether they are microchipped and how accustomed they are to noise, children and to other dogs.

Expect to be Asked Questions

A good, responsible Cockapoo breeder will usually also want to ask prospective buyers a few questions. After all, they will have a special link with all of their dogs and won’t want to see any of them going to an unsuitable family.

Therefore, you shouldn’t be offended if you are asked questions designed to ensure that you will give your new Cockapoo a great home. You should probably look at this as a sign that the breeder is doing a great job and should be more highly trusted.

The Transaction

If everything looks good so far then you probably feel that you are edging closer to completing the transaction and buying a lovely little Cockapoo puppy. If this is the case, your next question should be whether you will sign a formal contract once you hand over the money.

Be sure to find out what the terms of the contract are if you are going to be signing one. Also, some breeders will give you a useful pack with all of the paperwork and certificates together with something that has the scent of their mother on it. Some even give accessories such as a collar and lead or a bowl.

Summary

Some research needs to be done for you to feel completely comfortable about the choice of breeder that you make. You can quickly find out enough information to get a feel for the breeders you plan to speak to.

Of course, this is a situation in which listening to your gut instinct will also play a part. If you see a breeder and everything feels right, then you will probably be happy going ahead with purchasing your beautiful new Cockapoo puppy from them.
