The Beauty Of Cavachon Puppies

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 particular breed is a hybrid between a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and a Bichon Frise. The combination of the two makes for an undeniably adorable physical result but they have many great traits that will be pleasing to many. By that same token, they may be lacking in certain characteristics that other individuals are seeking.

Placed in the small to medium classification, these dogs rarely weigh more than 20lbs, or stand taller than 16" when fully grown. Their coloring is primarily white with splotches in either sable, black, red or a combination of the three. Though they are quite attractive, they are not accepted by the AKC since they are a designer hybrid and not purebred, which means no papers or shows.

Their coats can appear to favor either of the primary breeds, being silky and loosely waved, or soft and gently curled. The shorter hair is pretty much maintenance free, while the longer waves will require daily brushing and routine professional grooming. Perhaps the biggest advantage to these pups is that they hardly shed and produce little to no dander, making them very beneficial to those who suffer allergies.

Most people describe these animals as very affectionate, incredibly loving and extremely gentle with everyone. They are generally happy and cheerful and have an above average intelligence. Though these dogs are normally not in the least bit aggressive, they are protective and will alert their family to any sounds that are out of the ordinary and are cautiously wary of unknown visitors.

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.
