Things To Know When Looking For Cavachons For Sale

By Janet Morgan


Adopting a pet is an exciting adventure but not one to undertake without some thought. Things like picking an animal that fits well with one's living conditions and personality are important. There are certain factors which should be known before searching Cavachons for sale.

Many people are so excited about getting their new pet that they make the mistake of choosing one based solely on its appearance. While looks are certainly a major part of a dog's appeal, it is equally important to take into account things such as size, temperament, grooming, and health concerns, as each of these can impact a person's ability to properly attend their pets. Knowing what to expect before bringing the pup home can make the transition much smoother.

Designer dogs are the result of breeding two separate types of purebreds to create pups that possess certain characteristics of each parent. They can be a bit more difficult to obtain because the best mixes are typically found in litters of the first generation. One should also be aware that these dogs are not usually permitted to compete in official kennel club shows because they are not pure.

Potential owners of designer dogs should also understand that the standards for these breeds are not as set as with purebreds. In most cases, the puppies will get the most prominent traits of each parent, though these results are not consistently true. This is why breeders tend to recommend first generation pups because this is how the most desired offspring are produced.

When it comes to the Cavachon, the breeding is between a purebred Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and a pure Bichon Frise. As they are both of the Toy category, their offspring will only grow to a maximum height of fifteen inches and weigh no more than twenty pounds in adulthood. Their tiny stature is one thing that a lot of people find really attractive - especially those whose homes have limited space, such as apartments.

Their coats are typically soft and silky with a slight wave to it, though sometimes they do come out thick and curly. Either texture is considered to be hypoallergenic because they produce practically no dander and shed very little after their first year. This factor makes them appealing to people who have allergies or want to avoid having dog hair all over the home.

Some traits these dogs are known for are their high energy levels and their loving nature. Their eagerness to give and receive endless affection makes them great companions, though it is the same thing that makes them the worst watchdogs. When an unfamiliar human is around, they will bark, but only until they sense a willingness to become friends.

An average lifespan for a Cavachon is about 15-20 years, which means potential owners need to be aware that this is not a short term commitment. They generally experience good health but are susceptible to small breed issues like heart murmurs. The dogs can live long, productive, happy lives when given the proper type of care.
