Questions & Answers
One of the most interesting things about Cavapoos is their intelligence. This breed is known for being very smart and eager to learn, meaning they make great family pets for those who are looking for an intelligent companion. They are also known for being highly adaptable, able to quickly adjust to their surroundings or learn new tricks – even if there's a new rule or command in their environment. On top of that, Cavapoos are social butterflies who love playing and interacting with their owners or other people and pets.
Cavapoos can be a non-shedding breed, depending on the traits inherited from their parent breeds. A Cavapoo's coat can range from moderate to low in shedding because they typically have a mix of two coat types--Poodle and Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. If the Cavapoo inherits a coat that is more similar to their Poodle parent, then the pup won't shed as much. On the opposite end of the spectrum, Cavapoos with a more Cavalier King Charles Spaniel-like coat will likely shed more.
Cavapoos can have special dietary needs due to their size and activity level. Generally speaking, Cavapoos should be given a balanced diet consisting of lean proteins, fiber, and complex carbohydrates. Depending on the individual's age and health needs, they may require more tips than other breeds. Depending on the Cavapoo, they may need more frequent feedings or smaller meals to prevent overeating. Additionally, they may need more caloric food to provide enough energy to keep up with their active lifestyle.
To best prepare your home for your new Cavapoo, it is essential to consider creating a comfortable living space that is welcoming and safe. Start by researching the breed to ensure you are knowledgeable of the needs of your new pet. Then it is important to consider puppy-proofing your environment. Puppy-proofing may include blocking off rooms where the dog is not allowed, placing wires and cords out of reach, and investing in proper food and water dishes. Additionally, it is wise to invest in comfortable bedding such as a crate mattress or cuddly blanket.
Cavapoos typically get to be between 10 and 20 pounds when they are fully grown, depending on the size of the parents they are bred from. These hybrid dogs are a combination of a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and a Toy or Miniature Poodle. As a result, their size will depend on the size of their parents as well as the individual characteristics of the pup. Generally, during their first year, Cavapoos will double in height and grow the most, and then will slow down into their adult size throughout the following year.
Absolutely! Cavapoos are a cross between a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and a Miniature or Toy Poodle, which means you can typically enjoy the best of both breeds. Generally, Cavapoos are high-energy and active, making them great running partners. However, it's important to remember that Cavapoos are not significantly more energetic than other breeds, and they still need plenty of rest between runs. It may take some time and training for both you and your Cavapoo to become a successful running team.
Cavapoos tend to be great family companions and in many cases, they get on well with kids. They are intelligent, friendly, and have a mild temperament, which makes them ideal for families with children. Due to their high energy and playful nature, children can provide a great outlet for the Cavapoo's pent-up energy and they typically love playing games, running around, and learning new tricks in the company of children. As with all animals, it is important to supervise children around Cavapoos and teach them how to interact with them responsibly, respectfully, and safely.
Generally speaking, Cavapoos require at least 20-40 minutes of exercise each day, split into two or more sessions. However, the exact amount of time needed daily may vary depending on the individual dog and its energy level. A brief walk in the morning, and then playtime in the afternoon or evening can be enough for low energy Cavapoos. For more active dogs that need more exercise to stay content, it may be necessary to add additional walks and/or trips to doggy daycare throughout the week.
