I've had cockpoos and cavapoos for the past 10 years. I now have a one year old Cavapoo who is very friendly and loves to walk by the river and chase squirells. I also have a dauchund grand dog who i enjoy walking with my cavapoo. I have a small enclosed garden but am 2 minutes walk from the hook nature reserve. I currently do a school run in the mornings, and walk the dogs straight afterwards regardless of the weather. We go out in all weather's, unless the dogs really don't want to! I have a secure fenced garden that is paved and grassed. I have a side access so that we can avoid going into the house with muddy paws until we are all dried off. Although i am not worried about a bit of dirt!
