Some very important, breed specific questions should always be asked prior to making the commitment to adopt a puppy. Potential owners need to have answers to inquiries like do Cavachons shed much or need much grooming, what are their levels of aggression or social acceptance and are there any major health concerns, in order to be well informed. Without these details, it will be hard to know if the dog will be a good fit.
Taking the time to get to know the breed being considered could prevent a lot of disappointment and issues. Quite often people choose dogs based on the pup's appearance and their first impression. This could be a major mistake as looks are not always accurate indicators of the animal's temperament, habits, health concerns or other special requirements.
Considerations such as breed personality traits and which living conditions are most suitable to this type of dog are very important. The same could be said for being aware of what the grooming needs are and how much shedding should be expected. Failure to research these subjects could mean facing unpleasant surprise, disappointment and regret over a bad match.
The Cavachon breed is a designer dog created by mixing the elegant Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and the ultra adorable Bichon Frise. Each of these possess many wonderful traits, both physically and temperamentally, that were passed on to this protege'. Of course there are also some factors that are quite common in these pups that might not be so attractive to some potential owners.
There size makes them perfect for pretty much any type of housing situation. Falling into the small to middle category, they need less tending than the tiny toy pups and less running room than the really large breeds. This level of diversity makes them quite adaptable to most any living conditions from efficiency apartments to very spacious houses.
Shedding is one issue that tends to be a huge factor for many individuals because it affects things like housekeeping and allergies. Their fur comes as either short, loose curls or as longer waves that are really silky. The style does not change the fact that this breed does not produce any noticeable dander or experience any hair loss worthy of mention, which is something a lot of people find attractive.
How much and what type of grooming required is going to vary depending on the style of fur on the pup. To keep the long coats from becoming matted or tangled and to maintain their silky waviness, frequent brushing must be done. As the short curls grow they may tend to bush out and become unruly unless given professional trimmings every couple of months.
As they are extremely social, they do require a lot of attention and thrive in situations where there are multiple pets or older children with whom they may interact. This breed makes horrible guard dogs as their idea of aggression is licking faces and playing games, though they will bark if they feel their family is being threatened in any way. Being aware of all these different personality traits and care requirements may be very useful to any potential pet owner.
