Cavachon Puppies Make Great Companions

By Iva Cannon


A well matched animal can enrich any home with their companionship, unconditional love and other great gifts. Dogs are especially good at this as the personality traits and characteristics of various breeds are often found to be complimentary to those regularly exhibited by many humans. In Kent, OH, breeders offer Cavachon puppies that might be exactly what many individuals are seeking.

When selecting a new canine companion, one key thing to remember is that looks and cute factor should definitely not be the main consideration. Bringing a dog into one's life means committing to caring for this creature for the length of its lifespan. This is why it is imperative that an individual take the initiative to look into the characteristics of any breed being considered to ensure better chances of compatibility.

This breed is a special mix between the regal Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and the adorable Bichon Frise. The hybridization of these two could not fail to produce pups that are simply beyond cute but they also come with a blend of personality traits. Their character and tendencies may appeal to some individuals but not quite fulfill the requirements of others.

As far as size goes, they only grow to a maximum height of about 16" and 20lbs, which classifies them as small to medium. They can be white with spots of black, red or sable, or they may have a tortoise shell mix of all three colors in one blotch. Though absolutely beautiful and classy, they are not purebred and therefore not recognized by the AKC.

The coats on these pups may either grow in loose curls like the Bichon, or in gentle, silky waves as those of the Spaniel. The shorter styles require no regular maintenance, however, the longer strands need to be brushed daily and should be trimmed by a professional groomer on a routine basis. Regardless of fur type, the dogs are virtually non-shedders and do not produce a noticeable amount of dander which makes them a favored option among individuals with allergies.

Affectionate, loving and gentle are just a few of the words commonly used to describe this breed. They tend to be naturally happy and cheerful and show an intelligence level that is beyond average. Aggression is not in their nature but they will growl or bark protectively if they think their family is threatened by strangers or odd noises.

Family is very important to these creatures and they are wonderful with children, especially those who are considerate and play easy. Like toddlers, the dogs desire a lot of attention and may behave quite naughtily if they feel they are not getting enough or are left unattended for lengthy time periods. Leaving a television or radio running, or having other pets will help to keep this behavior under control.

Some health concerns are common with this breed of dog. Due to sensitivities, they may contract certain skin conditions, develop heart issues, suffer hip dysplasia or contract ear infections when not cleaned properly. All perspective owners should be aware of all these characteristics to be assured that the pup will easily fit into their lifestyle.
