Cavachon puppies for sale in MN are friendly, sociable little dogs. Expect your Cavachon to be underfoot when he's not on your lap. They're good with kids and other household pets. This little dog fits just fine in an apartment or even an RV. Sometimes called a designer dog, a Cavachon is a cross between a Bichon Frise and a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel.

The "problem" with hybrid dogs is they can get any combination of temperament traits from the parents, with no way to predict which combination. This really isn't an issue with Cavachons since both the parent breeds are gentle and friendly. A few have a skittish nature, preferring to come to you. This little dog is playful and easy to train. They're great with kids and other family pets. They don't enjoy alone time.

Adult dogs weigh 12-18 pounds. Fur is fluffy and thick, straight to curly. Shedding is minimal. Colors can be any combination of the parent colors. Most are shades of white, brown, tan or sable, bi-color or tri-color. Their large dark eyes melt your heart. The long floppy ears make you laugh. Lifespan is 8-12 years.

This active but easy to exercise dog can be a great pet for senior citizens. Playtime in the house can keep this little dog happy. They do love walks, trips with the family, car rides, dog parks. Most love snow and prefer walks when it's chilly. They bark to warn you, but usually aren't nervous dogs that bark a lot. They do well in apartments, with families, children, and other pets. Like many small dogs, they can be a challenge to housebreak.

Choose a breeder who is raising well socialized puppies in the family home. If possible, visit the home and ask to meet the parent dogs. Many breeders cross breed AKC registered parents with a well documented family tree and health history. Most breeders will have the puppies vaccinated and de-wormed before they're released to their new home. Ask about a health guarantee and return policy.

Your designer dog can inherit any of the genetic diseases common to the parent breeds. These include flea dermatitis, skin allergies, ear infections. Heart murmurs, cataracts, hip dysplasia, and patella luxation. Don't rely on hybrid vigor. Ask for the health history of both parent dogs.

Regular grooming is a necessity. Their thick wavy hair requires regular brushing to keep from tangling. A puppy cut every 6-8 weeks will keep this little dog looking adorable.

The dog world doesn't always agree regarding the value of hybrids. Some claim hybrid vigor. Some say hybrids are expensive mutts. All the registered breeds today started their lineage as "mutts", bred by humans who wanted a specific array of physical and/or character traits. Puppies with a King Charles Cavalier Spaniel and a Bichon as parents can be registered with the American Canine Hybrid Club. There's no registry available for puppies with a Cavachon parent.

Reputable breeders want to place Cavachon puppies for sale in MN in loving, stable, lifetime homes. They want to know you can provide the social environment this breed requires for the next 8-12 years. They'll ask about your experience with dogs, and why you are interested in this breed.
