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.

Cavachons look cute and cuddly, and they really are. The majority have pleasant personalities and enjoy the company of humans. They are very intelligent animals that learn quickly and don't mind obedience training sessions as long as they are rewarded with plenty of treats and verbal encouragement.

One thing you should take into consideration before you make a commitment to this type of animal is the amount of grooming time they require. They have to be bathed regularly and brushed and combed frequently. If you are not comfortable doing the work yourself, you will have to engage the regular services of a good dog groomer to do the job for you.

Cavachons tend to have fewer health issues than either of the breeds they came from. Knowing the medical history of your pet's parents could be really helpful for you vet when it comes to maintaining your pet's health.
