Cavachon

The most commonly used adjective for a Cavachon is happy. These adorable little pups are a cross with a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and a Bichon Frise who both share gentle and affectionate personalities. Cavachons by nature are laid back and enjoy just a small amount of exercise. Our puppies are socialised at a very young age and therefore get along with children and pets very well. 

Cavachons are intelligent and willing to learn, their attention spans are short so quick, efficient training lessons are suggested. These little pups grow to beautiful adult dogs with silky hair and slight tuffs of curls. Their gentle and loyal temperament paired with a hypoallergenic coat makes them an ideal family pet.
