Grooming the cockapoo

Green Hope Cockapoos are 3rd generation

or beyond. That means our cockapoos have

left the cocker and poodle heritage behind.

They are pure cockapoos by now. Their health

is superior, as is, the temperament.

Here are a few tips concerning their

coat maintenance.

After.

1. Trim the hair from her eyes.

2. Brush her teeth.

3. Remove excess hair from her ears

and clean any wax. Smell them for

odor.

4. Trim hair from anus; this makes her

easier to keep clean.

5. Trim under her chin.

6. Trim hair from between toes and

pads of her feet.

7. Trim her nails. Look for dewclaws.

Tips on nail trimming.

I prefer to groom my own dogs.

They may not look professionally

groomed but they love me to hold

and touch them. It is like combing

a child's hair; it provides a time

of bonding if done regularly.
