Cockapoo shave cut

Or in other words, cockapoo's summer cut. This cut means shaving all the coat off.

NOTE: We advise you to be very careful with summer cut for your pup. A dog's coat has evolved to keep your dog cool during the summer and warm in winter. Without a coat, your dog's skin will be exposed to sun damage, irritation, cuts, etc.

If you opt for shaving your dog, choose the professional groomer very carefully, keep your dog out of the sun and always put sunblock on your dog when he’s outside.

How to groom cockapoos at home?

Cockapoo grooming is very easy to take care of at home. They do not require a lot of grooming, but it is important to brush their coat regularly to remove tangles, dirt, and debris.

It is also important to trim their nails every few weeks and to give them a bath every month or so.

How to take care of cockapoo's haircare at home?

Haircuts should be regular, so they always look fresh and clean, but without proper at home coat care, you cannot maintain the immaculate & cute look of your puppy. Regular brushing, bathing & freshen up should always be a part of your dog care routine.

What are the best products for cockapoo haircuts?

When it comes to choosing the right products for your cockapoo’s haircut, you want to make sure that you use a high-quality shampoo and conditioner that is designed specifically for dogs.

If your cockapoo has a shedding coat, they need  shedding shampoo, which helps with removing the loose fur and undercoat in the bath. 

If your cockapoo has more of the poodle non-shedding genes, we recommend   non-shedding shampoo to nourish the hair of your pup! 

Last, but certainly not least, always use  dog conditioner to facilitate brushing and to keep the groom long lasting and your pup amazing smelling. 

For in between grooms we love  waterless dog shampoo for in-between bath freshen ups! 

We hope that this guide has helped you understand Cockapoo haircuts a little better and has given you some ideas on which one might be right for your dog. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us and we will be happy to help!

WHO IS PRIDE+GROOM?

PRIDE+GROOM was born because 4 New York City dog lovers wanted the same level of grooming products for their dogs that they themselves enjoyed. They looked (hard) but nothing was up to snuff. Or sniff. Like so many, we love our families and take pride in our homes, and we consider our pets to be integral parts of those entities. That said, we could not find an effective way to coif them that was on par with the way we tended to our children, our homes, or ourselves. These beloved pets are allowed on the furniture and in our beds, and yet even when fresh from the groomer, we knew they did not smell or feel as good as they could.

With the development of our coat-specific shampoos, conditioner and deodorizing spray, we think we found just the way to say thanks for being the best and the sweetest MVP of the house.

PRIDE+GROOM is the first dog grooming brand launched under a beauty platform, with formulas made in a clean beauty and scent lab. We know beauty is not only skin deep. We did a ton of research to create the entire line. Each product is formulated with its own unique blend of essential oils sourced from around the world.
