Selecting The Right Purebred Cavachon Dog Breeder

By Margaret Scott


There are many reasons why a person might be drawn to a particular type of canine, including looks, size, fur, and behavioral characteristics. Knowing where a puppy was bred and born, and the stock from which it came, and its early living conditions, can increase the chance that the animal will have the various features desired. Each of these factors are a part of finding a quality purebred Cavachon dog breeder in Minneapolis, MN.

This particular designer breed is obtained through the cross breeding of a Bichon Frise and Cavalier King Charles Spaniel that are both pure blooded. Each of these are listed as Toy breeds so the pups they produce together should also be of similar size. Because they are mixed, the puppies are intended to inherit those characteristics that their parents share, as well as the strongest ones displayed by each type.

Most dogs of this particular breed will be first generation, meaning that they are the direct result of cross breeding, which makes them relatively uncommon. This allows breeders to charge a premium price and there may be a waiting list to purchase a new puppy. If interested in adopting an older animal, contact one of several breed specific rescue groups for help.

It is important to remember that when purchasing a mixed breed puppy, there is no way to guarantee that they will possess all of the desired characteristics and the standard of norm is not set. Instead, based on the results most commonly achieved, a generalized guideline has been devised. Knowing the pup's bloodline and circumstances can be beneficial in determining whether it will have the targeted traits.

Speaking generally, this is a small breed that reached only about thirteen inches high and as much as eighteen pounds as an adult. They tend to have thick coats that are wavy and silky soft, though it is just as common for them to be curly, with both types producing very little dander and being low shed, which makes them great for allergy sufferers. Fur coloring is typically apricot, white, black, or various shades of brown, either in a solid hue or a combination of the three.

These dogs are typically very social, craving the attention of people or other animals, have a sweet temperament, are affectionate, loyal, intelligent, and gentle. They can be quite energetic and require plenty of exercise whether that be achieved from daily walks or play. How well these traits develop is often largely dependent on the conditions through which they were bred.

When considering breeders, ask them pertinent questions such as how long they have been breeding this breed in particular, how often each female produces a litter, the history of their animals, and what foods the adults are being fed. A reputable service should automatically provide a standard health guarantee for every puppy. It is also strongly recommended to request and review their references.

Taking a physical tour of the breeding facility could actually be very beneficial and informative. It is a good way to see the conditions in which the animals live, how often they receive socialization, and their general treatment. Observing the health and energy levels of the adults can be a good indication of a puppy's first few crucial weeks.
