By Patricia Fisher


You are probably reading this article out of much more than curiosity, since you are of the mind to getting a pet very soon in the form of a dog or puppy. Many of your friends may have suggested you get a dog from your nearest breeders for cavachon puppies in the area. Before you do make a commitment however, do read on in this article to give you some useful information regarding your decision.

Dog breeders were the ones responsible for this cross breed by mating the Bichon Frise with the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel over several generations and years. As it is a cross between two very different breeds, you will get very much differing temperaments. You can either get a dog that loves to sit on your lap or one that cannot be bothered to give you the time of day and be very aloof.

Depending on the quality of the breeding parents, and the prestige of the kennels it may come from, the puppy price will vary greatly. On the high end the prices can reach around to six hundred to eight hundred dollars per puppy. On average however, you can get a decent one in the rang of two hundred to five hundred dollars. You may even enjoy much lower prices if you go to the local animal shelter if available.

This breed is also growing in popularity due to the quality of their fur. It is known that their fur is generally hypoallergenic so many dog lovers who have allergies will be drawn to them because of this. One should however give a trial period of at least a month with this breed before making a final commitment to see if any concomitant allergies develop.

When it comes to housebreaking, this is a challenging one to housebreak when compared to other dogs. All dog owners will agree that if you are going to keep a dog indoors a majority of the time, housebreaking them is of prime importance. When it comes to the cavachon, the crate method seems to be the best strategy to follow. Thus do make more research on this strategy in order to help you out.

Once this dog will reach eight months in age, it will need to get a regular grooming schedule. The reason for this is that the cavachon's fur will be prone to tangling and matting as age progresses. While they are young and still puppies, it is good to let them be used to regular brushing so they will be more behaved when regular grooming schedules are made.

As with any breed, nutrition and diet will also hold prime importance. This breed is not a heavy eater and is a sporadic eater at best. It will require at least two full meals a day for it to be healthy, plus plenty of water. Of the small breeds, if taken well cared of, it can reach a maximum of 17 years lifespan.

Thus this article has shown some good basic information that you will need so that you can arrive at an informed decision regarding this breed. This list is by no means exhaustive but the items covered will no doubt suffice in getting you on the road to making a complete decision.
