F1B Cavapoo Puppy Review from Finland | Rossbane Kennels

“We were first-time puppy buyers who had been looking for over a year before we found Rossbane. We could not find F1B Cavapoos in Finland, communication with local breeders was difficult, and we had already been taken advantage of by a scammer pretending to be a breeder. It was not easy for us to believe that we could get our dream puppy from another country.

But from the first moment we contacted Emmett, he went above and beyond to reassure us. He even connected us with a Finnish customer to vouch for him.

We had a million questions and very specific criteria for our puppy because of allergies and sensory needs, but he handled all of them graciously. We never felt like a burden. That gave us the confidence to make sure we found the puppy who was genuinely right for our family.

Rossbane also made it easier to make last-minute travel plans because they have litters regularly. In Finland, we had faced waiting lists and no idea of temperament or coat color.

We wanted a small, affectionate, playful dog, but not one who would feel overwhelming in our home. It was reassuring to hear about the calm temperaments of Emmett's dogs, especially after hearing that some Finnish doodles could be very high-energy.

Our nine-year-old son was very scared of dogs, and that was one reason we chose a Cavapoo for its size and loving personality. Emmett sent us lots of videos and photos so we could see the available puppies. He was never annoyed if we changed our mind or wanted to see another option.

From the moment we chose Yoda, he felt special. At just nine weeks old, he was rolling onto his back for belly rubs, and we knew he was a wonderful fit.

We arranged to meet in Dublin and Emmett's son personally delivered Yoda to us and even showed us how to put his harness on. We were nervous about travelling from Dublin back to Finland with him, but the handover and paperwork were a breeze. As Emmett said, we had nothing to worry about.

On 8 June 2025, Yoda became part of our family.

Within weeks, our nine-year-old was sneaking into Yoda's room for cuddles, completely won over by Yoda's gentle, playful and affectionate nature. Emmett continued to check in for many months afterwards, and it feels great to know that we have lifetime support.

A year later, Yoda has brought more laughter and joy into our home. After such a stressful start to our puppy search, he was the happy ending we had hoped for.”

Cockapoo Puppy Review from Sweden | Rossbane Kennels

“We've always wanted a Cockapoo thanks to their low-shedding coat - with allergies running in the family we wanted to make sure we'd find a dog that would be as allergy friendly as possible. We were also looking for a family friendly, happy, and moderately active breed which makes the Cockapoo a perfect fit for us. Here in Sweden the Cockapoo breeders are few in numbers and the competition for a puppy of this breed is fierce - everyone wants one it seems!

We made the decision to broaden our search and found our way to the website of Rossbane Kennels in Ireland. It was quick and easy to get in touch with the kennel and in a matter of days they could offer a Cockapoo puppy to come live with us. The puppy was transported from Dublin by air and arrived in Stockholm healthy and safe. Throughout this process Caroline at the kennel kept an active role and coordinated every step of the way which made us feel secure and well informed the whole time.

When our puppy, Leo, finally arrived it was love at first sight! Our experience of both the breed and Rossbane Kennels was so delightful, and nice that within a matter of months we decided to adopt another Cockapoo puppy from them, Hilo. Now we are blessed with two of the most precious and wonderful dogs you'd ever imagine - we couldn't be happier!

My lasting impression of Rossbane Kennels is that they are sincerely dedicated to their puppies and have nothing but their best interest at heart. Emmett, the owner, is a very experienced breeder and ensures that both parent dogs and their litters are always looked after in the best possible way. Our experience of importing two dogs from Rossbane Kennels has been very positive and I'm happy to give them my highest recommendation!

Cavachon Review from Switzerland | Rossbane Kennels

“We are very satisfied. Caroline and Emmett are responsible breeders, promptly answered all your questions. We got a healthy puppy, and we received all documentation and vaccination according to the Country requirements (Switzerland). The puppy is happy, lovely, and friendly with strangers. He has a lot of patience playing with my little kids and can easily change from an active playful puppy to a lap dog. I believe it will be very easy to be trained because he already learned the “sit” command. The coat is silky, a bit wavy and until now no shedding at all. We definitely recommend them.”

Cockapoo Puppy Review from Finland | Rossbane Kennels

I can highly recommend Rossbane Kennels where we got our cockapoo (Cessan) puppy few weeks ago. We flew from Helsinki to Dublin to bring Cessan home.

Emmett brought her to our hotel in Dublin with all necessary paperwork including pet passport, vaccination papers and registration certificate. We also got some puppy food and a small blanket for her. Our puppy adjusted to her new life in Helsinki fairly quickly, she’s healthy and adorable. The process was very easy and everything was handled by the Kennel, we just bought a flight ticket and a puppy bag for the flight. Thank you!”

Cockapoo Puppy Review from Switzerland | Rossbane Kennels

"We are super happy with our little cockapoo puppy. She is absolutely perfect! We had her shipped to Switzerland by road, everything went very uncomplicated and easy. She is super adorable, great with kids and a very fast learner. Big thank you to Emmett and Caroline for this little sweetheart and for making everything work so well! We couldn't be happier."

Cockapoo Puppy Review from Switzerland | Rossbane Kennels

“Our lovely cockapoo Copper came to our lives when he was 4 months. He is a friendly and lovely puppy who brings joy everywhere he goes. We can only thank Rossbane Kennels for being so helpful and make so easy the process of bringing him to our country. They kept in contact with us showing us the puppy for checking how he was and the kennels during the months in which he could not come with us yet, and they were very transparent and friendly during the whole process. They for sure have the best puppies! (Or at least we now have the best).”

Cockapoo Puppy Review from Belgium | Rossbane Kennels

“A huge thanks to Emmett and his team for the warm, friendly and professional care they took when we went to pick up our wonderful Cockapoo Cooky. Our children of 6, 10 and 12 are in love with Cooky and so are we. She is a bundle of energy and joy, she loves to play and wants nothing more than to be part of the family. We have taken Cooky on many trips and she is a great traveller. To many more years of fun and joy together.”

Cockapoo Puppy Review from Nyon, Switzerland | Rossbane Kennels

“We are really happy with our little cockapoo boy, happy, friendly, cheerful and super cuddly. From the beginning communication with Rossbane Kennels was easy and on point, so we decided very quickly to get our dog from them. Dogs looked very well taken care of, happy and cheerful and for us this was a bonus!”

Cavapoo Puppy Review from Portugal | Rossbane Kennels

“Emmett was very helpful with regards to us navigating our new puppy Ruby from Ireland to Portugal where we currently live. He kept us updated on how she was getting on until we managed to collect her. We were so impressed with the layout and quality of the premises as you hear such horror stories but what a clean well organised place with such lovely dogs. We could have taken them all. Emmett also made sure we got to meet Ruby's mum and dad and showed us around everywhere. We even got her lovely handsewn blanket for her trip back to settle her. It has been a very easy experience thanks to Emmett where nothing was a problem and all her paperwork, vaccinations etc were correct to meet our travel requirements. She has a wonderful temperament thanks to Emmett's expertise and more importantly just his care for his dogs. We would have no hesitation to recommend Rossbane Kennels to anyone here in Portugal or at home in Ireland. Ruby brings such joy to everyone that she meets and everyone in Ireland is besotted with her.”
