So, if a cocker spaniel and poodle breed, you have a cockerdoodle. Now, if a cockerdoodle and a cockerdoodle breed, do we no longer need the cocker spaniel and poodle? Or do only cockerdoodles come from the original mix of the two, spaniel and poodle?

If a cockerdoodle and a cockerdoodle breed you get a cockerdoodle. If you breed a poodle and a cocker you get a cockerdoodle. Any dog is a mix of his parents no matter what you call them. Some kennel clubs name some "breeds" or families of dogs a certain name and choose to recognize them. Some don't. It is irrelevant whether they do or not. All of the breeds we see today came from just mixing different dog families. You can call it whatever you want and it is just as valid as any other dog. Dog DNA is Dog DNA. Not a one is really better than any other or more valid than any other. A breed is just a specific family of dogs bred together over and over and over through many years until they establish a certain set of characteristics.
It isn't a great idea to mix a cocker spaniel and a poodle. Both breeds are high energy and nippy. It would be a cute dog, but the temperament would be very active and prone to nippiness. You try to mix calm dog with a breed that is extremely active. Over the last 30 years the cockerspaniel breed has really suffered from poor breeding and temperament problems. I would never mix that with a high energy poodle.

Well the two go hand in hand. If someone regard's themselves highly, then I would say they are probably more likely to have a pure bred dog because they think it's better. People want to feel good about themselves so they are constantly adopting ways to do it. If they have a pure bred dog they naturally are going to use that fact to promote themselves because they apparently need the validation. They validate themselves by ragging on others. Please keep in mind that not all pet owners that have full breed dogs act or think that way. My parents have Shelties and they don't put on heirs. The fact is a dog is a dog. Just because someone decided to put a label on it doesn't mean it doesn't lick it's butt too.

Ummm... not entirely sure, but it would seem to me that it all depends on recessive/dominant genes and which traits you want to encourage and which traits you don't. It's all kind of luck of the draw. I'd imagine though, that if the second generation of cockadoodles had or lacked some traits you wanted from the original two breeds, you could reintroduce the breed with the preferred traits... but I don't breed designer dogs, so I'm not sure.
And if you think cockadoodle sounds wierd, imagine what you'd get if you crossbred a chitzu and a poodle.... a chitpoo!! LOL

If A and B breed then you have an AB. If two AB's breed you still have an AB. Why wouldn't you? Do you think that if there is a litter of six pups that 3 will be A's and 3 B's?

Most people who buy designer breeds, myself for instance (I have a Puggle, the Beagle/Pug hybrid), prefer the 1st generation breed, which would be the breeding of the cocker spaniel and poodle. When you breed the hybrid with another hybrid, you still have the hybrid, it's considered a 2nd generation breed, it's just not as likely to look the way you want it to so most people stick with the 1st generations, that is why you would still need the cocker spaniel and poodle.
There are many sites out there that will teach you about hybrid breeds. Just google it. I learned a lot about my puggle and actually found her on www.puggle.org. I hope this answered your question.

I think you should make a cockerdoodledoo
Breed two different purebred, you get a mutt.
You make a mutt, breed it with a mutt, you get a mutt.
You make a mutt, breed it with a purebred, you get a mutt.
I love my mutt, and mutts are great. But the question is simple. These aren't breeds- end of story.

Either you get a mutt (combo of 2 different breeds) or a mongrel (combo of 3 or more different breeds)

A Cockerdoodle and a Cockerdoodle equal a Cockerdoodle.

Wow, confussing question! But, they would be purebred Cockerdoodles, then. I know, it sounds VERY wierd, but, that's all that I can really think of! I hope that this helps! Thanks, and good luck,
