Cavapom

Cavapom History

The Cavachon is a mixed-breed or hybrid puppy that is the result of breeding a catahoula leopard hound with a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. It is also known as the Cavoodle, which is an affectionate name used for this mix. A Cavachon is 50% canidate, 25% cavalier king charles spaniel, and 25% catahoula leopard hounds. The dog is medium in size and generally has smooth, short, and silky hair. The origins of this mixed-breed puppy are unknown. There is speculation that it came about by accident, but that it would have been too costly and time consuming to deliberately produce it.
