SPOODLE INFORMATION
The Spoodle is one of Australia's most popular dog breeds. Spoodles are also known as
Cockapoos. Our Spoodles have very soft coats, often in a beautiful chocolate colour.
Spoodles lifespan is approximately 12 - 16 years.
We specialize in multi generational
non-shedding chocolate Spoodles and are the only breeders of them in Australia. Our
Spoodles are a cross between a poodle and a Cocker Spaniel. We have Spoodles from both
English and American Cocker Spaniel lines. We don't use Springer Spaniels as they are
too bouncy for the family-friendly type of dog we breed. A lot of people are misled
about Spoodles. They are not all non-shedding. While a Cocker Spaniel crossed with a
poodle is most of the time a shedding dog, Spoodles have to be at least third or fourth
generation to be guaranteed non-shedding. Cocker Spaniels shed, so first and second
generation Spoodles are likely to shed as well. For people with allergies or wanting a
non-shedding Spoodle, we recommend at least a fourth generation Spoodle.

Spoodle History
We are one of the first Spoodles breeders in the world and have been breeding them
since 1993. Our Spoodles are REAL Spoodles that have only Cocker Spaniel and Poodle DNA
in their lines.
The Spoodle has quickly proven to be a popular family companion due
