Size Matters (Or Does It?)

Cavapoos come in various sizes, depending on their Poodle parent. From the petite "Teacup" Cavapoo to the standard-sized ones, there's a Cavapoo for everyone. But beware, they may be small in stature, but they make up for it with their larger-than-life personalities!

Coats of Many Colors

If you're indecisive about your fav colour, Cavapoos have you covered! With coats ranging from luscious apricot and elegant black to creamy white and chocolatey brown, you'll have a tough time picking just one.

Love and Cuddles

Cavapoos have taken cuddling to a whole new level. Their Cavalier side brings out their affectionate nature, making them the perfect snuggle buddies. Beware, one cuddle session, and you'll be under their charming spell forever!

Cavapoo Quirks

Much like the best of us, Cavapoo's aren't without their quirks! Their antics and escapades can turn any mundane moment into a circus extravaganza. Here's a glimpse into what a life involving a Cavapoo might look like:

  1. Digging for Buried Treasure: Remember the famous explorer Indiana Jones? Well, forget him! Cavapoos are the true adventurers, always on a mission to unearth the hidden treasures of your backyard. You might find your shoe buried like a time capsule, or perhaps your keys hidden in the flowerpot!

  2. Dinnertime Dilemmas: Picture this: You've lovingly prepared a gourmet meal for yourself, but your Cavapoo insists it's a feast for them too! Cavapoos are renowned for being relatively fussy eaters, so to prevent you having to give up your own dinner plate, opt for a high quality, meat packed recipe that will have them cleaning their bowl every time. Looking for a new food? We might just have the option for you, explore our gut-friendly recipes today, loved by fuss-pots!

  3. Zoomies Galore: Cavapoos are like Energizer bunnies with turbo boosters! At the most unexpected moments, they'll go from zero to warp speed, zipping around the house like little furry comets. You'll wonder if you stumbled into a canine Formula 1 race!

  1. The Howling Serenades: When the moon is full and the stars align, you might be treated to a soulful serenade by your Cavapoo. Their melodious howls will make you laugh, cry, and join the chorus! A hidden talent you never knew you needed in your life.

  2. Sensitive tums and bums: Cavapoos are well known for having rather sensitive constitutions, making your choice of food extra important. Opt for a good quality, all-natural food that contains minimal ingredients to help reduce the chance of sensitives. You may also want to consider a hypoallergenic dog food, which will often avoid common allergens like gluten, soy, egg, and dairy. As well as looking out for added gut-friendly goodies like pre or probiotics. All our lip-licking recipes are 100% natural and hypoallergenic, we also offer grain free options for extra sensitive stomachs too!

Cavapoo Care: Fluffiness Requires Responsibility!

As the saying goes, "With great fluffiness comes great responsibility!" Cavapoos may bring bundles of joy, but taking care of them requires commitment and care. Here are some tips to ensure you're the best Cavapoo guardian:

  1. Grooming Galore: That luxurious coat demands some pampering! Regular grooming sessions are essential to keep them looking sharp and feeling comfortable. Embrace the fur-brush bonding time, and both you and your Cavapoo will reap the rewards!

  2. Playtime Shenanigans: Cavapoos have an abundance of energy to burn. Engage in playtime, go on walks, and let them indulge in doggy sports. A happy Cavapoo is a well-exercised Cavapoo, and a tired Cavapoo is a content Cavapoo (and a non-destructive one!).

  3. Treats and Tricks: Remember, these smart cookies thrive on mental stimulation. Train them with positive reinforcement and offer tasty gut-friendly treats as rewards. You'll be amazed at how quickly they master new tricks!
