Cavachon Puppies for sale in Grantham, Lincolnshire

1 Cavachon Puppies for sale in Grantham, Lincolnshire

The Cavachon, also known as Cavalier-Bichon, Cavashon, was created by crossing two purebred dogs, namely the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel with the Bichon Frise. These small dogs were first developed in the USA but quickly became very popular in other areas of the world, including here in the UK, thanks to their adorable looks and charming nature. Cavachons are not recognised as a breed by the Kennel Club or some other international clubs. However, breed clubs have been set up in many countries around the world and their aim is to ensure that breeders follow good breeding guidelines so that these delightful dogs are bred responsibly, especially as there is no breed standard for the Cavachon at the moment.

Health of the Cavachon

The average life expectancy of a Cavachon is between 10 and 12 years when properly cared for and fed an appropriate good quality diet to suit their ages.

FAQs

What are the disadvantages of owning a Cavachon?

Cavachons may face health issues such as mitral valve disease, knee problems, cataracts, and skin conditions, and they require regular grooming to prevent matting of their long hair. They can be prone to separation anxiety if left alone for long periods, which might lead to destructive behaviour, and some can be challenging to train. Additionally, Cavachons can be expensive to purchase and maintain.

How much does a Cavachon puppy cost?

The cost of a Cavachon puppy typically ranges from around $1,000 to $5,000 in the US, with prices sometimes reaching up to $7,500 for high-quality bloodlines. In other countries such as Canada and the UK, prices vary accordingly, with the UK market potentially seeing costs up to £6,500 for show-quality puppies.

Do Cavachons bark a lot?

Cavachons are generally not excessive barkers; they tend to bark mainly to alert their owners about something rather than barking constantly, making them relatively quiet compared to other small breeds.

Are Cavachons good dogs?

Cavachons are affectionate, intelligent, and energetic dogs that make excellent companions. They require moderate exercise and plenty of attention, along with regular grooming. They are well suited for families or individuals who can meet their social and care needs, although potential owners should be mindful of their grooming requirements and potential separation anxiety.
