Cavachon Puppies Make Great Pets

By Marci Nielsen


Mixed breed dogs can be wonderful pets. Breed one Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and one Bichon Frise together and the result if a litter of Cavachon puppies. The puppies are a hybrid and not considered pure bred. Despite the fact that their ancestry consists of two pure bred dogs, the parents were not of the same breed. Subsequent generations of Cavachons will continue to be classified as hybrid.

These pets are well suited to being indoor dogs because they are hypo allergenic and their coats shed very little. They are not extremely small dogs, but small enough to keep indoor living comfortable for both dog and owner. The smallest females are twelve pounds, while the smallest males are around sixteen pounds. The colors most commonly found on their coats are peach and white. However, they are also found to have two colors or in some instances the coats are tri colored.

Cavachons are friendly, good natured pets. They are currently very popular with families as they tolerate children well. They make intelligent pets who will bark at unidentified noises and people. They are not aggressive towards people, and their bark is only a warning bark to alert the owner that there is something out of the ordinary. Do not count on your Cavashon to be a watchdog. This is not in their nature.

In general a mixed breed tends to have fewer health problems than a purebred dog. One of the problems with the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is the mitral valve disease, which can result in heart failure. Good breeders will not knowingly breed a Cavalier with this condition. Since dogs breed early in life, the condition may not be known. Be sure to ask your breeder about the health history of the purebred parents. Keeping in touch with the breeders in future years may also be helpful.

One weakness the Bichon Frise parent may pass only to its offspring is a disease of the immune system. This too is serious and may shorten the life of your pet by as much as fifteen years. Again, stay in touch with the breeder to make sure both parents remain healthy.

The breeders in Kent Oh are the best of the best. They take the time and love to train the litters early. They begin with house breaking and crate training. If your pet has mastered both of these skills, it will make the transition to his or her new home very smooth.

Crate training litters is an effective way of getting them to sleep through the night. If you have ever had a new puppy in the house, you know that the experience can make you very sleep deprived. Housebreaking can also cause some issues. It is great to work with breeders who give your pet a head start on both of these challenges.

These dogs make loving, caring pets that you and your family will cherish for many years. Not all breeders are created equal, so choosing a conscientious breeder is essential to the happy life you hope to share with your furry friend. It is not long before new owners realize their puppy is an important addition to the family,
