Hello Puppy Seeker, and Welcome to Foxglove Farm 😊

I’ve bought many puppies myself over the years, both in this country and abroad, and you have my sympathy; looking through page after page on the internet trying to find the right puppy is a daunting task, even for an expert. I’ve seen the good and, unfortunately, the not-so-good ways of finding a new puppy, and if you decide to adopt a Foxglove Farm Cavapoo or Cavachon, I have a promise for you…

I made up my mind years ago that the person who came to Foxglove Farm looking for a puppy was going to thoroughly enjoy the experience and get a beautiful, healthy, and, most importantly, smart and trainable puppy who would bring joy to their family for years to come.

As a former veterinary technician, boarding kennel owner, professional groomer, AND dog trainer, I’ve learned what an amazing canine companion should look and act like, and my passion is helping people choose the right puppy in the first place and then provide them with a puppy who is well versed in all the puppy basics.

A word about pricing: No matter how adorable your Cavapoo puppy is, if he’s an out-of-control adult dog, a non-stop barker, or impossible to housetrain, he wasn’t the bargain you hoped for when you purchased him. Foxglove Farm puppies are priced higher than some on the market, but great puppies simply don’t come cheap.

I’ve been at this for more than a few decades, and those years have helped me develop a philosophy of raising puppies that allows even the absolute puppy novice to navigate life with a Cavapoo with a minimum of stress and an abundance of joy.

• What if your Cavapoo puppy was not only beautiful but had a lovely disposition that made training easy?

• What if your new Cavapoo slept through the night from day one? (Yes, you read that right!).

• What if you didn’t have to worry about finding a healthy Cavapoo puppy knowing you had the comfort of a 5-year Health Guarantee? (And our oldest puppies are now 17 years of age!).

• What if your Cavapoo had the benefit of a judicious blend of natural and conventional regimens to ensure health and longevity?

• What if the whole experience of getting a puppy was more fun (I’ve been on the receiving end of many NOT FUN puppy buying episodes), I love bringing Puppy Joy, no cranky dog breeder syndrome here!

• What if you didn’t have to Google “what supplies do I need for a new puppy” but had an exact guide from your puppy’s breeder on what to buy (and, more importantly, what not to buy)?

• Most importantly, what if you had a step-by-step outline of how to raise your new Cavapoo written by the person who knew him and loved ❤️ him first?

  Yes, our puppies are expensive, but no one works harder or provides more tools to make sure your puppy journey is a SUCCESS!

About The Cavapoo

Charlie is the perfect dog and I can’t believe I’m saying this but we want another one! Me the person who didn’t even want a dog at all and now I’m so in love with Charlie that I’m ready to do it again so he’ll have a buddy!

He has been so good for our daughter, he’s changed her life. Every morning he wakes her up and helps her get ready for school, at night, he tucks her into bed, he is amazing and we love him so much.

He’s everything you said he’d be and more, thank you so much for our Charlie!

I've been raising beautiful Cavapoos for many years, and as my faithful Puppy People know, I love not only a dog that is delightful on the inside but a  canine companion that is equally beautiful on the outside!  In addition to their absolutely stunning coat colors, the Cavapoo brings the brightness and trainability of the Poodle (think show dog Poodles please!) along with equally stellar coat qualities for allergy sufferers and those who'd like to own a dog without having to live on Claritin!  I've had many clients over the years who are looking for a hypoallergenic, non-shed puppy.  Human allergy sufferers, whether they be allergic to dogs or not, need a hypoallergenic puppy; a Cavapoo is often a great solution to that doggie dilemma!

• Smaller size, family-friendly

• Great with children

• Make great second dogs if you already have a canine (or a cat!)

• Exceptionally hypoallergenic and non-shed

Comparing the Cavapoo and Cavachon

I get asked to compare the Cavapoo with the Cavachon a lot, and my honest answer has to be that I probably prefer the Cavachon a tiny bit over the Cavapoo.  Surprised? I love both of these fluffy breeds; of course, they each have so much charm, and indeed either are wonderful choices for just about any situation.  There are always differences in any breed, and hybrids are no exception.

Here are the ones I’ve noted over the many years working with them 😊 Please keep in mind sometimes a person is simply drawn to the look and color or style of a dog, and I always think that’s a good indicator of whether a Cavachon or Cavapoo is the better choice for a particular situation.

I have always adored Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, and in my puppies, I prefer the lower ear set, long beautiful ears, and a very “spanielly” expression, but some of my Puppy People are completely smitten with round little furry faces and higher ear set, again, it’s just the way we’re wired and if you are craving a Cavapoo with short ears and a button nose then, by all means, go with your heart! I admit I’m madly in love with both of our offerings!

• Cavapoos are brilliant and can learn just about anything you can dream up to teach them.

• Cavachons start out slightly more laid-back, which I love, but the Cavapoo gets to the same place with time. Puppies are puppies and both breeds will have busy times every day, alternating with lots of naps lol.

• Both are athletic sporty, and fun, but can also dial down the energy and make great couch potatoes when needed.

• The Cavapoo matures into a wonderfully relaxed and calm adult, with a slightly busier puppyhood, but if you’re longing for the Cavalier’s easy-going characteristics, both the Cavachon and Cavapoo display them with time. The silly puppy stage is over in a relatively short period of time so enjoy your puppy’s antics, the puppy stage is so much fun!

• The Cavapoo is a wonderfully entertaining and fun family companion. That beautiful Ruby color isn’t found in the Cavachon (or at least not the depth of color that I like to see in our dark mahogany red puppies).

• Some Cavapoo puppies tip the scale on the more sedate side of things canine. Temperament can vary from litter to litter, from puppy to puppy, but all end up making delightful and intuitive family dogs whom their owners adore!

Is the Cavapoo larger or smaller than the Cavachon?

Actually, sometimes the Cavapoo is larger; sometimes the Cavachon tips the scale and ends up the bigger dog.  On average, I'd say our Cavachons range from 8 to 11 pounds for the Toys and 12 to 18 pounds or so for the larger Toy or small Standard size.  Occasionally I see Cavachons that will range from 18 to 25 pounds, not too often but once in a while.

How big is a cavapoo?

Don't let size alone be the deciding factor.  On average, the Cavapoo puppy will mature to between 10 and 15 pounds.  If you want a slightly larger size adult, occasionally we have a litter of Cavapoo puppies who will get a bit larger, up to about 16 pounds to 18 or 20 pounds.  Though small in stature, they are still hardy and enjoy busy family life from the beach to the mountains, they are adaptable and fit beautifully in any number of situations.

Is The Cavapoo a good family dog?

I'd have to say that there are only slight differences between the Cavapoo and the Cavachon in regards to temperament.  They are both very people oriented, and are born with the makings of superb family pets.  The Cavapoo is probably a bit more energetic as a puppy than the Cavachon, and that can vary a bit from litter to litter, but in general, Cavapoos have the spirited happy demeanor of the Poodle, especially as babies.  They quickly grow into a dog that enjoys both time on the couch or a walk round the block to try out that Fitbit!

How Is the Cavapoo with children?

The Cavapoo loves children, they are playful and sunny in disposition and active enough to play happily with the kids until everyone is worn out and ready to come in and work on that homework, the Cavapoo makes great study buddies!

Very outgoing and yet devoted, they are great dogs to consider for service dog candidates.  The Cavapoo is so affectionate that they are dependable with small children and yet can be sporty and fun with more active families.  Like the Cavachon, the Cavapoo is a small dog with the heart of a big dog.

Cavapoos are extremely hypo-allergenic and non-shed

Cavapoos are almost always well tolerated by those with allergy issues. They have the slightly more curly coat of the Poodle and easily overcome the notorious shedding characteristics of the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel.   

Their coats are dense and require grooming at regular intervals; I recommend using a coat conditioner EVERY TIME you bathe your Cavapoo or Cavachon. I cannot tell you the difference it makes long-term in helping your dog stay moisturized and looking her best, especially if you love long furnishings on the ears; that’s the secret to beautiful, face-framing ears.  With coated breeds, the difference using conditioner makes is simply amazing.  Coat conditioner keeps Cavapoos easy to brush and tangle-free, and I think it adds a layer of protection if you are allergy-prone by keeping the coat from drying out and producing dander. 

I recommend professional grooming approximately every 6 to 8 weeks.  Some people go a bit longer between clips and a few brave souls even learn to do a credible job at home.  My Cavapoo & Cavachon puppies learn as babies to be groomed and bathed.  It helps loads if your little one has had those basics started from an early age.  Tell your groomer to keep your dog in a "Puppy Clip" or "Personality Clip" it helps to take along a photo of what your Cavapoo looked like as a puppy, if your groomer knows her stuff, she'll always keep your Cavapoo looking like a puppy!  

In addition to that good news, they are also quick to learn and rather athletic for small canines. As for size, they are typically between 10 and 15 pounds, a more modest size if you intend to do a lot of traveling and have constraints on how big your traveling companion must be.  

All in all the Cavapoo will make deciding between the Cavachon and the Cavapoo just a bit tougher, I tell people, a puppy will often just jump off the page and into your heart, regardless of the blend, these Cavalier hybrids make incredible family dogs no matter which one you choose!

A cavapoo dream come true!
