Depending on the quality of the breeding parents, and the prestige of the kennels it may come from, the puppy price will vary greatly. On the high end the prices can reach around to six hundred to eight hundred dollars per puppy. On average however, you can get a decent one in the rang of two hundred to five hundred dollars. You may even enjoy much lower prices if you go to the local animal shelter if available.

The breed has been growing popularity much in part due to its fur. The fur of this canine is generally accepted as having hypoallergenic properties and thus very much sought after by dog lovers who have the unfortunate condition of having canine allergies.

When it comes to housebreaking, this is a challenging one to housebreak when compared to other dogs.

When it comes to the cavachon, the crate method seems to be the best strategy to follow. Thus do make more research on this strategy in order to help you out.
