Dog Food for Cockapoos
The Cockapoo, a Cocker Spaniel crossed with a Poodle, is one of the original doodle breeds, popular in the United States since the 1960s. Cockapoos are cheerful, affectionate, and adaptable. Most weigh 12 to 25 lb, with soft, wavy to curly coats that need regular grooming.
Cockapoo owners often ask about coat care and sensitive stomachs.
Why Your Best Friend fits Cockapoos
Skin and coat support
Omega-3 fatty acids (1.5% min), zinc, vitamin E (400 IU/kg min), and biotin support healthy skin and a soft, curly coat.
Gentle on sensitive stomachs
Salmon and fish are the protein, with no chicken, corn, wheat, or soy, plus pre-, pro-, and postbiotics for steady digestion.
Big nutrition for a small dog
Complete and balanced for all life stages, with a moderate 385 calories per cup that makes portions easy to measure. If your dog prefers smaller bites, moisten the kibble with a little warm water.
Heart health, guaranteed
Guaranteed taurine (0.10% min) and L-Carnitine (300 mg/kg min), in one formula from puppyhood through the senior years.
How much to feed a Cockapoo
These are starting points for an average adult with a normal activity level. Adjust to keep your dog lean: you should be able to feel the ribs easily under the coat.
| Adult weight | Cups per day | A 14 lb bag lasts about |
|---|---|---|
| 12 lb | 1 | 8 weeks |
| 18 lb | 1½ | 6 weeks |
| 25 lb | 1¾ | 4½ weeks |
Most small dogs do best with the 14 lb bag on a longer delivery schedule, which you can set in your subscription. Keep the bag sealed and stored somewhere cool and dry. Puppies need more food per pound than adults, so split their daily amount into three or four meals. Your vet can help you fine-tune portions as your puppy grows.
