Spoodles (Cocker Spaniel × Poodle, known as Cockapoos elsewhere) suit the teddy bear cut beautifully. Their wavy-to-curly coat, combined with the Cocker Spaniel's sweet face shape, creates an adorable rounded finish. The teddy bear cut is especially practical for Spoodles as it keeps their often-tangling coat at a manageable length.

Spoodles Teddy Bear Cut FAQ

What does a teddy bear cut look like on a Spoodle?

A Spoodle teddy bear cut rounds the face into a soft ball shape, with the floppy Spaniel ears trimmed to medium length and blended into the head. The body is clipped to 1-2 inches, and the legs are scissored round. The result highlights the Spoodle's expressive eyes and gentle expression.

How much does a Spoodle teddy bear cut cost?

A Spoodle teddy bear cut costs $65-$100 in Australia, depending on size (Spoodles range from small to medium), coat condition, and salon. Matting surcharges of $10-$30 apply if the coat is tangled.

How often should a Spoodle be groomed?

Every 4-6 weeks for a teddy bear cut. Spoodles inherit the Poodle's fast-growing coat and the Cocker Spaniel's tendency to tangle, making regular grooming essential. Brush every 2-3 days between grooms, paying attention to the ears and chest where mats form first.

Do Spoodles get ear infections from grooming?

Spoodles can be prone to ear infections due to their floppy, hairy ears (inherited from the Cocker Spaniel). A good groomer will clean the ears, remove excess hair from the ear canal, and check for signs of infection at every groom. Keep the ears dry after swimming or bathing.

General Spoodles Grooming Tips

Brush your Spoodle every 2-3 days, focusing on the ears, chest, and legs where tangles form easily. Keep ears clean and dry — Spoodles inherit the Cocker Spaniel's tendency toward ear infections.
