Few things make a home more welcoming that the addition of an animal who provides the right amount of companionship, love and other great comforts. Dogs in particular are very good at filling these needs since the different breeds are as diverse in lifestyle needs and personality characteristics as humans are. Some individuals may find that the Cavachon puppies offered by breeders in Kent, OH are the best match for them.

When searching for a dog to bring into the home, it is important to select one based on more than just their looks or their cuteness factor. One should take the time to understand the breed as adopting a pup means a commitment that lasts their lifetime. Choosing a canine type that fits the lifestyle of the household and the personalities of the humans within it will make the blending smooth and satisfying.

These designer pups are achieved through the hybridization of the incredibly cuddly Bichon Frise and the majestically regal Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. The mix definitely produces irresistible cuteness but it also yields a specific blend of behavioral characteristics and personality traits. While these will be great for many individuals, they may not be so wonderful for others.

Placed in the small to medium classification, these dogs rarely weigh more than 20lbs, or stand taller than 16" when fully grown. Their coloring is primarily white with splotches in either sable, black, red or a combination of the three. Though they are quite attractive, they are not accepted by the AKC since they are a designer hybrid and not purebred, which means no papers or shows.

Their coats may appear very similar to one donor breed or the other, presenting as either long, silky, gentle waves or as short loose curls. While the Bichon type of fur is fairly maintenance free, the Spaniel style is going to require regular grooming and the occasional professional trim. Either way, these dogs shed very little, if at all, and do not produce any significant dander which makes them a good option for individuals who have allergy issues.

Affectionate, loving and gentle are just a few of the words commonly used to describe this breed. They tend to be naturally happy and cheerful and show an intelligence level that is beyond average. Aggression is not in their nature but they will growl or bark protectively if they think their family is threatened by strangers or odd noises.

Cavachons are deeply family oriented and love children, especially those who are gentle and considerate. Much like those little playmates, the pups also crave lots of attention and can exhibit unsavory behaviors when left home alone for hours or when they feel ignored. This can usually be avoided by having additional pets in the home or simply letting a radio or television play while the people are away.

Every creature has some sort of health issue and this breed is no different. They may be prone to skin conditions due to sensitivities, heart conditions, hip dysplasia and ear infections if not properly tended. Anyone considering adding one of these pups to their household should make sure they will easily fit into their existing lifestyle.
