I'm trying to find a good breeder of Cockapoos in the Ontario region.
Mark Shaw...

There are no good breeders of mongrels, anywhere.

There are good breeders of Alaskan Huskies, which are
mongrels. However, I doubt very much that there are good

Interesting; I had no idea.
I'll take your word for the "good" part (assuming you mean
ethical, responsible, etc). You're the Northern Breed maven.

Even though the dogs aren't recognized as a breed, a lot of
the things that go along with what we call breeds are done,
as well. I would venture that the average Alaskan Husky
owner who works his dogs knows more about his dogs'
pedigrees (i.e. not just who the ancestors were, but what
they looked like, how they ran, who owned them, who the
siblings were and who owned them, and so on) than the
average purebred pet owner. There are probably a couple of
things disqualifying them as a breed, particularly that
there's a huge amount of variety in physical type. There
are some people who breed because they think it's cheaper
than buying and so they breed whatever they've got around,
but the good breeders are extremely fastidious.

breeders of poo dogs.

Yup.
Some jackass, seeing that Baron hasn't been snipped (yet),
approached me the other day about the idea of "schnoodles."
I kept my composure, though.

Any ideas?
Thanks for the assistance

In the poster's post to rpd.breeds, I pointed him to a beautiful
1 year old male cocker/poodle in a shelter in his general area.
I hope the poster follows up.

'cockapoo' is after all nothing but a cross breed with a large price
tag.
