What is a Sproodle?
A Sproodle, also called a Springerdoodle or Springer Doodle, is a cross between an English Springer Spaniel and a Poodle. Size, coat and temperament can vary with the parents and each puppy, so it helps to get to know the parents and the puppy.
Is a Sproodle the same as a Spoodle?
The names can be confusing. We use Sproodle for an English Springer Spaniel–Poodle cross. Spoodle commonly refers to a Cocker Spaniel–Poodle cross. If you’re comparing puppies, ask about their parents rather than relying on the name alone.
Are Sproodles good family dogs?
They can be affectionate, people-focused companions, but they are active dogs who need company, daily exercise, positive training and regular coat care. The best fit depends on your household and the individual puppy.
What health testing do the parents have?
You can find the named parents and their health information on our Parents & Health page. Ask us about the DNA panel and any physical health checks for your puppy’s mum and dad. A clear DNA result applies to the conditions tested, rather than every possible health problem.
What is included when my puppy goes home?
Families receive veterinary paperwork, microchip details, age-appropriate preventative care, familiar food or a settling-in item, and a purchase agreement. We provide ongoing breeder support and six weeks of PetCover, subject to its terms. Eligible families paying through RightPaw can also access a 30-day Trupanion introductory offer; activation and policy terms apply.
Can you help arrange transport?
Options include in-person collection, road transport by car or van, and domestic or international air travel where suitable. We can discuss the route and requirements with you; travel depends on the puppy’s age, health and destination rules.
Do you have Sproodle puppies for sale?
Our puppy profiles show the latest published availability. To buy a Sproodle puppy, start with an enquiry so we can talk about your family, the puppy and their price. If you decide to go ahead, we’ll explain the written agreement and reservation process through RightPaw before you pay.
What should I know about coat care and allergies?
Coat texture and shedding can vary, even within a litter. Some Sproodles shed less, but no dog can be guaranteed hypoallergenic. Plan for regular brushing and professional grooming; if allergies are a concern, spend time around the parents or puppy before deciding.
Could a Sproodle suit therapy work?
Some Sproodles may suit therapy work, but it depends on the individual dog’s confidence, calmness, health and training. No puppy can be guaranteed a therapy role. If this is your goal, mention it when you enquire so we can discuss temperament and next steps.
