What Cockapoos are like to live with
A Cockapoo is a cross between a Cocker Spaniel and a Poodle, as Dogs Trust puts it, not a breed. It isn't on The Royal Kennel Club's Breeds A to Z, so there is no breed standard and no breed page setting out its size or temperament. The Royal Kennel Club's guide to crossbreeds calls these "designer dogs" and says crossbreeds often have a mix of their parents' traits, and that it is often "difficult to predict what the puppies will look like or what their temperament will be". Any one Cockapoo can take after the Cocker, the Poodle, or both.

Cockapoos in Greater Manchester: your questions
Tap a question to expand
How many rescue Cockapoos are available for adoption in Greater Manchester?
As of 8 November 2026, no Cockapoos are listed for adoption in Greater Manchester on LocalPetFinder. Rescues add animals all the time, so this page fills as they list them.
Is a Cockapoo a breed?
No. A Cockapoo is a cross between a Cocker Spaniel and a Poodle, according to Dogs Trust, and it is not on The Royal Kennel Club's Breeds A to Z, so it has no breed standard. The Royal Kennel Club says crossbreeds often mix their parents' traits, so size, coat and temperament vary from dog to dog.
Are Cockapoos hypoallergenic?
No. Battersea says Cockapoos are "not hypoallergenic as coat type varies a lot and no dog is fully allergy-friendly". Doodle Trust says a puppy coat can change in adulthood. If someone at home has allergies, ask the rescue whether you can spend time with the adult dog first.
How much does it cost to adopt a Cockapoo in Greater Manchester?
Each rescue sets its own adoption fee. Dogs Trust charges £300 for a puppy or adult dog in England, Wales and Scotland, and Blue Cross fees start from £235 for dogs aged 8 or over and £335 for dogs aged 1 to 7. The fee usually covers neutering, microchipping and first vaccinations, and each rescue confirms its own fee.
Are there Cockapoo puppies for sale in Greater Manchester?
No. We don't list animals for sale. Every Cockapoo on this page is with a rescue or rehoming centre. Rescues rehome animals rather than selling them, usually for an adoption fee: for example, Dogs Trust £300, and Blue Cross puppies under six months start from £525. The fee usually goes towards vet work already done, such as neutering, microchipping and first vaccinations. If you searched "cockapoo puppies for sale Greater Manchester", the Cockapoos here are the rescue route: you apply to the rescue and pay its adoption fee, not a sale price. In England, Lucy's Law has meant since 6 April 2020 that puppies under six months can't be sold by a third party such as a pet shop or dealer: you buy direct from the breeder or adopt from a rehoming centre.
Can I get a free Cockapoo to a good home in Greater Manchester, or one under £500?
Usually not. UK rescues normally ask for an adoption fee, which pays towards neutering, microchipping and vaccinations. Many rescue fees are under £500: Dogs Trust charges £300, and Blue Cross from £235 for dogs aged 8 or over. An animal offered "free to a good home" is usually a private advert rather than a rescue. All dogs in the UK must be microchipped by 8 weeks old, and in England, Wales and Scotland a dog can't pass to a new keeper until it is chipped, so ask to see the microchip details.
Are there Cockapoo puppies for adoption in Greater Manchester?
