About cavachons

Created by happy accident in 1996, the Cavachon is a cross between the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and the Bichon Frise. The sweet, calm King Charles crossed with the people-loving, affectionate Bichon results in an adorable, friendly lap dog. Cavachons have large, warm “puppy dog” eyes, long floppy ears and a silky coat. The Bichon side of this designer breed brings lower-shed fur, which makes it a popular option for those with allergies. Cavachons are wonderful, easy-going family dogs and do well in apartments as well as larger homes.

cavachon Care

The Cavachon is an affectionate companion breed that is full of personality and thrives on attention. Their size and temperment makes them a great choice for most families and adapts well to smaller living spaces. They enjoy brisk walks, family playtime, and a warm lap to snuggle on.
While they do require regular grooming, it is important to brush their coat every few days to prevent matting and to keep their nails trimmed.Their ears and eye area should also be cleaned reguarly to prevent infection and reduce tear staining. Brushing their teeth also prevent dental issues down the line.
