Do Cavachons Shed Very Much

By Olive Pate


When considering a particular type of dog for adoption, there should be certain questions one may want to ask prior to making a final decision. Posing inquiries such as do Cavachons shed, do they have major health concerns, are they active and what are their personality traits, can help one make an informed choice. They are important in determining if the breed is suitable to an individual's lifestyle.

Taking the time to get to know the breed being considered could prevent a lot of disappointment and issues. Quite often people choose dogs based on the pup's appearance and their first impression. This could be a major mistake as looks are not always accurate indicators of the animal's temperament, habits, health concerns or other special requirements.

How well a breed will fit into particular living situations and whether or not they have any strong personality concerns are key things one should consider. It could also be very useful to know the amount of expected shedding and what grooming is necessary. Not knowing these thing beforehand can cause a lot of issues for new owners.

The Cavachon breed is a designer dog created by mixing the elegant Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and the ultra adorable Bichon Frise. Each of these possess many wonderful traits, both physically and temperamentally, that were passed on to this protege'. Of course there are also some factors that are quite common in these pups that might not be so attractive to some potential owners.

There size makes them perfect for pretty much any type of housing situation. Falling into the small to middle category, they need less tending than the tiny toy pups and less running room than the really large breeds. This level of diversity makes them quite adaptable to most any living conditions from efficiency apartments to very spacious houses.

Shedding is one issue that tends to be a huge factor for many individuals because it affects things like housekeeping and allergies. Their fur comes as either short, loose curls or as longer waves that are really silky. The style does not change the fact that this breed does not produce any noticeable dander or experience any hair loss worthy of mention, which is something a lot of people find attractive.

Their fur, depending on which style the pup is sporting, will require particular grooming attention. Those with the longer strands will be prone to tangles and dullness if not brushed out several times a week. The short and curly coats can grow a bit thick and bulky if not given a professional trimming every three to four months, or as often as needed if living in extremely warm conditions.

As they are extremely social, they do require a lot of attention and thrive in situations where there are multiple pets or older children with whom they may interact. This breed makes horrible guard dogs as their idea of aggression is licking faces and playing games, though they will bark if they feel their family is being threatened in any way. Being aware of all these different personality traits and care requirements may be very useful to any potential pet owner.
