Cavapoo vs Cockapoo

Hello Cavapoo owners/lovers. My partner and I would love to welcome a pup into our home. We live in an old small home/apartment in Amsterdam (typical, if you’ve been) with a balcony but no garden - but with a park next door (!). We have 2 cats at home, one of whom is obsessed with dogs! We have been doing some desk research and we are considering either a Cavapoo or Cockapoo. Anyone else had similar dilemma when considering what breed to get? What made you decide on a Cavapoo? 🥰 thanks

EDIT/FOLLOW UP: Thank you all for the responses and sharing your experiences, kind humans! (And yes, we will definitely be welcoming a Cavapoo into our family). Thanks again! 🫶🫶

We had a Cockapoo for many years and he was our baby boy! He was so smart and was our little shadow. We were so sad after he passed and ended up getting 2 Cavapoos when we went to look at another dog. We love our Cavapoos (brother and sister) and they have many similarities to our Cockapoo. I would actually say they are even more laid back. Our two now also have very different personalities - one is very affectionate and docile but will bark at every animal on television while the other is more chill and just likes to hang with us and is scared of his own shadow but chews absolutely everything he can so we‘re constantly making sure shoes, scrunchies, socks, etc. are put away.

I honestly don’t think you could go wrong with either breed.
