What Size Urn for a Cockapoo?
The short answer: Cockapoos vary a lot in size, so go by your dog's healthy weight. If they weighed up to 15 kg, choose our Small-Medium urn. If they weighed between 15 and 30 kg, choose our Medium-Large urn.
How the size is worked out
Allow about 1 cubic inch of space for each pound your dog weighed before cremation. A 10 kg (22 lb) Cockapoo needs about 22 cubic inches, roughly 0.36 litres. A 15 kg (33 lb) Cockapoo needs about 33 cubic inches, roughly 0.54 litres.
Our sizes
- Small-Medium: for pets up to 15 kg
- Medium-Large: for pets up to 30 kg
- Extra Large: for pets up to 40 kg
These weight bands are the same on our dog portrait, pet portrait, wrapped, collar and canopic jar urns. As one example of size, our canopic jar urn stands approx. 231 mm, 270 mm and 309 mm tall in the three sizes. The bands are a choosing guide, not a measured volume, so if you know the volume of the ashes, tell us and we will confirm the size before you order.
Tips
- Use their usual, healthy weight. If you only know a range, use the top of it.
- Close to 15 kg? Go up to Medium-Large. A little space is better than too little.
- If your crematorium gave you the volume of the ashes, use that instead.
