REVIEWS FOR THE COCKAPOO HANDBOOK:

“This is a cracking book! Great tips for first-time owners, but just as good for those of us who have been 'owned' for some time. I heard about this book through the British Cockapoo Society, & I have to say it is a really good read, helpful & informative & written with lots of humour!” Ms JOANNE HALL, UK

“This book is a must-have for every Cockapoo owner!!! This is the most in-depth book on Cockapoos I have ever read. I have many books on Cockapoos & this one is truly superior by far,” J. LEITCH, USA

“We've had our little bundle of Cockapoo joy for 6 days now. We read through this before choosing/picking up our little guy & have been consulting it in the last few days too. It has been an invaluable source of guidance for us. I've learnt so much from this book & highly recommend it,” AIMEE M, UK

“Fab book. Bought after reading the reviews. We have just got a new cockapoo puppy so wanted a good informative manual. This is it! This book has been invaluable!” M.C. UK

I know so many Cockapoos and have had such fantastic input from organisations and experts that writing this book was a real pleasure for me.I hope The Cockapoo Handbook will give owners a great insight into the minds and typical habits of their Cockapoo, and help those who haven't got their dog yet find a healthy puppy from a good, ethical breeder. I wish your Cockapoo a long and happy life with you, Linda Whitwam, Author
