Designer Cavachon Puppies For Sale In MN Are In Demand

By Frances Patterson


Designer dogs seem to be all the rage these days. Lots of people love the idea of owning one and are ready to spend large amounts of cash to make that happen. It may be a point of pride that they can afford one, or a way of emphasizing their luxurious lifestyle. Neither one of these things is a good reason to purchase a pet of any kind. Designer, or hybrid, animals are simply the product of two separate purebred dogs mating to create a new breed. Cavachon puppies for sale in MN, for example, are a cross between the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and the Bichon Frise.

With designer animals it is a good idea to get as much information as possible about their genetic history and background. If you are purchasing a first generation dog, that is a puppy whose parents are one each of the different breeds, or a second generation dog, meaning both parents are Cavachons, there may be significant differences in height, weight, color, and temperament.

Most Cavachons are very friendly and pleasant little animals. They enjoy being around people and getting a lot of attention. Owners often boast about how intelligent their small pets are. These dogs tend to respond well to training exercises, especially when they are young. They love to please their owners and treat obedience sessions like playtime. Most Cavachons shed very little, so they are good animals for dog lovers with allergies.

If you are concerned about the purity of this breed, you don't have to be. Designers dogs are not considered purebred even though both of their parents were. They might vary in weight and height depending on the size of their ancestors. They also do not have specific coloration requirements. Most of the puppies are peach or white, but it you would rather have a black and white or black and tan pet, you can find one.

Cavachons usually make great family dogs. They love children and have a lot of patience with them. They also get along with existing family pets and don't even show hostility over food dishes. Because of their compact size, they live quite well in small apartments or condos, and don't need excessive space to exercise. Most Cavachons don't like cold weather, so outdoor time during the Minneapolis, MN winters should be kept to a minimum.

Although these dogs don't shed very much and are hypoallergenic, they do require frequent and rigorous grooming. Weekly baths and comb outs are necessary to keep them in the best of health and looking neat. If this is something you don't have the time or patience to do yourself, you will have to be ready to hire a groomer to handle the job.

The health issues that trouble Bichons and Cavaliers are not as pronounced in Cavachons, but you should be very careful and get as much information as there is available about a puppy's parents before you decide to purchase an animal. They can easily inherit heart problems and autoimmune system diseases that will significantly shorten their life expectancy.

Before you introduce any pet into your family you need to feel comfortable that you are committed to caring for the animal for years to come. Dogs often become beloved family members who deserve the best life possible.
