Moon & Moxie's Cockapoo Puppies

Caring for Moon's litter in their final week is a whirlwind of bittersweet preparation, essential healthcare, and foundational training before they depart for their forever homes.​

​

At eight weeks, Cockapoo puppies reach critical developmental stages that prepare them for independence:​

​

• Independence: They are fully weaned from their mother and get their nutrition from high-quality solid food, typically eating four small meals a day.

• Physical Coordination: Their motor skills are refining; they can run, pounce, climb and crawl.

• Sensory Growth: Their eyesight and hearing are fully developed, making them highly curious—but also more prone to the "first fear period," where new experiences can be startling.  We offer safe exposure to new daily and work to empower and ecnourage the pups should they feel uncertain about something.

​

"Gotcha Day" is a bittersweet day for us, but the sadness of saying goodbye is far outweighed by the excitement of knowing the love they are about to receive. Whether they become a dedicated hiking partner, a favorite movie-night snuggler, or a child's best friend, we know they are going to fill their fur-ever home with a special kind of magic.

Thank you to our CHC families for opening your heart and home to one of our little ones. We couldn't have picked better families for them to grow up with.
