Visit A Quality Cavachon Dog Breeder

By April Briggs


Before buying a puppy of any type, it is always a good idea to do a bit of research to determine if the desired breed is suitable for one's lifestyle. Consideration should be about all aspects of the canine's needs and not just about their looks. Should one decide a cute designer pup is the answer, it is time to visit a quality Cavachon dog breeder in Minneapolis, MN to pick a companion.

The AKC does not acknowledge these dogs as being able to compete since they are not purebred, however, people still find them quite desirable. This breed is the result of combining a Bichon Frise with a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. Their category is small to mid range as they rarely exceed sixteen inches of height or twenty pounds of weight.

The coats on these types of dogs comes in a variety of colors. Most commonly they have white fur with splotches of red, black or sable in random areas. Occasionally, pups can be born of a solid hue or they may be adorned with a combination of three or four in a tortoise shell type of effect.

The coat is one of the main things that makes this such a popular breed, though it is more about the special quality of it than the colors. The fur may be silky, long and wavy, or it may be soft and loosely curled. Regardless of appearance, both shedding and dander production are minimized which makes these dogs highly viable options for people who want a pet but suffer allergies.

Most people are initially drawn to these pups because of their appearance. Their small size is complemented by a sturdy build that gives these active animals strength and perfectly showcases their beautiful coats. This cute body style is made even more irresistible by the expressive and large eyes typical to these lovable little fur babies.

Generally speaking, these animals are extremely family oriented but do not do very well if left on their own for long periods of time. They tend to get anxious when lonely and may misbehave out of nervousness. Some ways around this issue is to have another pup or cat in the house, or to leave the television or talk radio on for sound.

Possessing wonderful social skills and being quite intelligent, Cavachons will likely bark to alert their people of strangers or unexpected sounds, but actively being physically aggressive is very rare. High energy and playfulness, as well as happy dispositions and responsive interaction is very typical. Being around children is usually no problem at all, especially young ones who are old enough to be respectful and kind.

There are no major health concerns with this breed, though regular checkups, dental hygiene, ear maintenance and flea control are important. Grooming frequency is going to depend on which type of coat the pup has with the long haired pups needing daily brushing and the short curls getting professional trimmings a few times a year. Because they tend to be strong willed, house and obedience training may require patience and consistency paired with both firmness and fairness.
