  • Baths with Marley, our Mini Cockapoo

    Giving Marley, our playful mini Cockapoo , baths are always an event! As soon as she hears the water running, she tilts her head with curiosity and a hint of suspicion. Once she’s in, the splashing begins—Marley treats bathwater like her personal playground. Her soft, curly coat requires extra care, so I use gentle, dog-friendly shampoo to keep her fur clean and tangle-free. She’s surprisingly patient during the rinse, though her wide-eyed expressions always make me laugh. The real fun starts after the bath. Wrapped in a fluffy towel, Marley wiggles with excitement, ready for her zoomies around the house. After a few minutes of tearing around the house, we heat up a rice pad and for the next hour she snuggles down under the blankets. Baths might not be her favorite, but Marley always makes the most of the warmth and snuggles to follow. Does your pup love or loathe bath time?

  • The Lifespan of a Cockapoo: How Long Do Cockapoos Live?

    The Cockapoo, a beloved crossbreed between a Cocker Spaniel and a Poodle, is known for its affectionate nature, intelligence, and hypoallergenic coat. One of the many reasons they are so popular is their relatively long lifespan, which ranges from 12 to 15 years. With proper care, some Cockapoos have even been known to live beyond 15 years. Factors Affecting a Cockapoo’s Lifespan 1. Genetics: The hybrid vigor of Cockapoos often contributes to their overall health.

Diet: Providing a balanced, nutrient-rich diet is key to maintaining their health and longevity. Obesity can lead to various health problems and reduce their lifespan. 3. Exercise: Regular physical activity helps keep a Cockapoo fit, preventing obesity and maintaining their joint and heart health. 4. Routine Veterinary Care: Preventative care, such as vaccinations, dental hygiene, and regular check-ups, plays a crucial role in extending their lifespan. 5. Living Conditions: A safe, loving home environment contributes to their mental and physical well-being, promoting a longer life. Conclusion Cockapoos are a wonderful addition to any family, offering years of companionship and joy. With the right care, the average Cockapoo lifespan of 12 to 15 years can be a fulfilling and cherished time for both the dog and their owner. Whether you already own a Cockapoo or are considering adopting one, investing in their health and happiness is the best way to ensure they live a long, vibrant life. A mini cockapoo puppy

  • Snowsong is an Ontario Siberian Husky and Cockapoo Breeder

    A mini Ontario Cockapoo puppy Our journey began years ago, as a young teenager, when our parents began breeding Great Pyrenees. As we attended many dog shows, I fell in love with the beautiful Siberian Husky. In my early twenties, still newly married, we moved out of our apartment into a house. Within a couple of months, we were looking at our own Siberian Husky. Actually we brought home two Huskies. And the journey began. Another chapter opened when we met Marley. A good friend was raising Cockapoos here in Ontario. We stopped by to say hello and met Marley and her siblings the day after they were born. It was love at first sight. We adopted our little Cockapoo and waited for her to become eight weeks old. Life with Marley opened a new window in our lives. We discovered the world of Cockapoos. We decided to include the wonder of Cockapoos with our Siberian Huskies and become an Ontario Cockapoo Breeder . A blue yeyed Ontario Husky puppy

  • How Much to Feed a Husky Puppy

    A baby Husky puppy from Snowsongs Coda and Asher Feeding a Husky puppy the right amount of food is essential for their growth and health. The amount you should feed depends on their age, size, and activity level, but most Husky puppies require 2 to 3 cups of high-quality puppy food per day, divided into three meals. Personally, I prefer to free feed my Huskies. While occasionally a Husky will take advantage of this and we need to adjust, most Huskies will regulate their eating on their own. A Simple Feeding Schedule by Age • 8–12 weeks: Feed 3-4 small meals per day to support their rapid growth and energy needs. • 3–6 months: Transition to 3 meals per day as their stomach capacity increases. • 6–12 months: Reduce to 2 meals per day as they approach adulthood. Choosing the Right Food Select a puppy food specifically formulated for medium to large breeds. Look for a balance of protein, fat, and essential nutrients to fuel their energy and support bone and muscle development. Monitoring Weight and Growth Husky puppies are naturally lean and should not appear overweight. Regularly check their body condition and adjust portions as needed. Always provide fresh water, and avoid overfeeding, as Huskies are prone to digestive issues if they eat too much at once. Consult your veterinarian to tailor a feeding plan to your puppy’s specific needs, ensuring they grow into a healthy and happy adult Husky.

  • What Age is Best to Spay a Cockapoo?

    The ideal age to spay a Cockapoo typically falls between 6 to 12 months, depending on their size, health, and lifestyle. Spaying your Cockapoo before her first heat cycle (around 6 months) can help reduce the risk of certain health issues, such as mammary tumors and uterine infections. For larger Cockapoos, waiting until closer to 12 months may be advisable to allow full development, especially for bone and joint health. Consulting your veterinarian is essential to determine the best timing based on your dog’s specific needs. Spaying not only prevents unwanted pregnancies but also promotes a healthier, longer life for your Cockapoo. At Snowsong we typically breed mini Cockapoo and would recommend closer to the 6 month mark. The competitions of an unplanned pregnancy, if one of your neighbours have a male dog, can be expensive as well as challenging for your Cockapoo. A pregnancy before a dog is one year old is not good due the fact the mother dog is still developing herself in these months. Be safe. Plan ahead. Consult with your vet about their practice and experience. You’ll be thankful for the years to come. A mini cockapoo puppy from Snowsong Siberians and Cockapoos
