Suitable Environment
Because of its small size and low exercise requirements, the Black and White Cavoodle is suitable for tiny apartments and small homes with limited or no backyard. As long as it gets to spend time cuddling or playing with its owners, the size of its home will not matter.
Other Considerations
- While the Black and White Cavoodle is not an excessive barker, it may do so at times. It will bark at strangers to alert their families if they feel there may be a potential danger.
- This mixed breed loves to be around people and animals. Leaving it alone for a long period may result in separation anxiety. Should you need to be away from your dog for a few hours, it is recommended to hire a pet sitter until you come back.
- Unlike many other dog breeds, the Black and White Cavoodle is less likely to cause an allergic reaction.

How can I take good care of my Black And White Cavoodle?
Nutrition
It is recommended to feed your dog high-quality food formulated specifically for small breeds. Foods that contain balanced levels of carbohydrates, protein, fat, vitamins, and minerals are suggested for optimal health. Fresh, clean water should also be provided daily.
While the Black and White Cavoodle is not prone to obesity, it is still important to monitor its food intake. Puppies may be fed three to four times daily, depending on their weight. Adults may be fed lesser – at least to one or two meals a day.
Just like other dogs, Black and White Cavoodles need to avoid certain foods. These include chocolates, macadamia nuts, garlic, onions, grapes, and corn on the cob.
Grooming
A Black and White Cavoodle’s grooming requirements depend on the type of coat it has. Dogs with Cavalier-like coats need brushing only a few times a week. Canines with Poodle-like coats require more combing.
To prevent tangles and remove dander, it is recommended to clip your dog’s fur frequently. Monthly baths are also suggested, as this mixed breed’s curly hair tends to easily trap dirt and debris. To keep its face clean, regularly trim the hair around its eyes and mouth.
Recommended Grooming Tips
Let your dog get used to going to the groomers at a young age so it stays happy and clean.
Prevent ear infections by checking your dog’s ears daily for debris and pests. If you don’t know how to properly clean your Black and White Cavoodle’s ears, consult with your veterinarian.
Trim your dog’s nails once or twice a month, or when they start clicking against the floor. Brush its teeth daily to prevent dental issues.
Exercise
Despite its small size, the Black and White Cavoodle is surprisingly energetic and sociable. This is why it needs daily exercise. To keep it healthy, encourage daily playtime, take it out walking, play with it in the yard, or let it socialise with other dogs.
Training
Both the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and Poodle are intelligent and fast-learning purebreds. This is why the Black and White Cavoodle is very easy to teach basic commands. This breed is obedient and eager to please, so you can expect training to be short and fun.
When training a Cavoodle, it is recommended to be patient and firm. This is because this dog tends to have a short attention span and can be independent. Positive reinforcement, consistency, and treats are suggested.
