Origins and Characteristics of cavapoos

Originating in the United States, Cavapoos are a delightful mix between Cavalier King Charles Spaniels and Poodles. They combine the best traits of both breeds, known for their friendly, sociable nature and hypoallergenic coats. They come in a variety of colours, including cream, fawn, chocolate, gold, and chestnut. Cavapoos typically weigh between 9 to 22 pounds and stand about 9 to 14 inches tall.

Behaviour and Temperament Of Cavapoos

Cavapoos are known for their affectionate and friendly temperament. They are social dogs that get along well with children, other pets, and strangers. Their intelligence and eagerness to please make them highly trainable and excellent companions. They thrive on human interaction and enjoy being part of family activities, making them ideal pets for active households.

Energy and Exercise

Cavapoo dogs have a moderate energy level and enjoy daily walks, playtime, and mental stimulation. They adapt well to various living situations, from apartments to houses with yards. Regular exercise helps prevent boredom and destructive behaviour.

Shedding and Lifespan of Cavapoos

Cavapoos have a low-shedding coat, thanks to their Poodle ancestry, making them suitable for people with allergies. They require regular grooming to maintain their coat. With proper care, Cavapoos typically live between 12 to 15 years. Their lifespan can often be extended with a balanced diet, regular exercise, and consistent veterinary check-ups to monitor and address any health concerns. Regular grooming sessions also help to prevent matting and keep their coat in optimal condition, contributing to their overall health and longevity.
