Cavachon Puppies for Sale

Cavachon Puppies Temperament

Although they are small in size, they have big personalities. This is a breed that was developed from two-lap dog breeds, so they definitely have all the traits of a good cuddler. They are extremely affectionate and need lots of attention to stay calm and centered. Cavachons are very social creatures and enjoy being around people. They are also very playful and active, making them great pets for families with children. While they don’t need lots of vigorous outdoor exercise every day, a short daily walk will keep them happy. Cavachons are relatively easy to train, and they are typically very good at following commands. However, they can be stubborn at times and may need some extra patience when it comes to potty training. Overall, Cavachons are intelligent, affectionate dogs that make great family pets.

Cavachon Puppy Health Considerations

Though generally very happy and long-lived — with an average lifespan of around 11-15 years — our Cavachons for sale are not without their unique health concerns. Like every breed of dog, there are a few conditions you should be aware of before you consider purchasing one of our Cavachon puppies for sale. Understanding the risks allows you to know the signs and prevent small health concerns from turning into big ones. Cavachon puppies are at a somewhat elevated risk for developing the following conditions:

• Hip Dysplasia
• Ear & Eye Infections
• Seizures
• Mitral Valve Disease (MVD)

Allergies are one of the most common health problems in Cavachons. Many Cavachons suffer from environmental allergies, which can cause symptoms such as scratching, licking, and hair loss. Food allergies are less common, but they can also be a problem for some dogs. If your pup seems to be allergic to something in his diet, talk to your veterinarian about switching to hypoallergenic food.

Eye problems are also relatively common in Cavachons. Some of the most common issues include cataracts and glaucoma. Cavachons may also be born with eyelid abnormalities that can cause tears to drain improperly from the eye. These conditions can usually be treated with surgery or medication.

With some basic knowledge of the breed’s health concerns, you can be sure to give your Cavachon the best possible chance at a long and healthy life. Finding a Cavachon puppy for sale from a reputable breeder can also dramatically — although, not eliminate — the risk of your dog developing some of these conditions.

Cavachon Puppy Coat & Coat Care

The coat is usually soft and curly and stands away from their body.

Cavachons have a distinctive appearance, with a soft, fluffy coat that can come in a variety of colors. While their coats may seem low-maintenance, they actually require daily brushing to prevent mats and tangles. Their coats need regular grooming every 4-6 weeks and are often trimmed short. Tear stains can be an issue, so wipe your eyes daily with a clean, damp cloth. Check with your vet to see if your Cavachon should have its tear ducts flushed periodically.
