Breeding of cockapoo to cockapoo IS generally done now by most cockapoo breeders. And once you get to the 3rd generation (and up) there is coat/look consistency.
There is also a standard written for the cockapoo.
Also the labradoodle is made up of lab/poodle/cocker (labradoodle bred with a cockapoo) according to the Australian Labradoodle standard (that is of course now being bred in the US).. and of course there are the ones that just breed lab to poodle but the are not true labradoodles. |

Not disputing your claim, I'm just honestly curious because I didn't know this. I'm interested in looking into what steps they've taken to get where they are and what they are doing to continue their efforts.  TIA. |

Perhaps this will explain things a bit more.
Since mommadog was the one who started the american cockapoo club. And didn't you (mommadog) say you are going to be breeding yorkies now too? So how can you say there is overall too much breeding? Aren't you contributing to that?
