How can I take good care of my Mini Cavoodle?
Nutrition
Feed your Mini Cavoodle a high-quality dog food suited to their age, size, and energy levels.
Split meals into two portions per day to maintain energy and avoid overfeeding.
Add variety with lean proteins, fresh vegetables, and the occasional healthy treat. Always ensure fresh water is available.
Grooming
Brush their coat every couple of days to prevent mats and tangles, and schedule professional grooming every six weeks to keep them looking their best.
Recommended Grooming Tips
Use a slicker brush to detangle their coat gently.
To avoid tear staining, wipe your dog’s eyes often. Keep the hair around its eyes trimmed.
Brush your dog’s teeth at least twice a week to prevent tartar buildup and gingivitis. However, to prevent periodontal disease, consider daily brushing.
Exercise
While they’re small, Mini Cavoodles aren’t couch potatoes. These dogs love a bit of action, whether it’s a brisk walk around the neighbourhood, a romp in the backyard, or an afternoon at the park chasing a ball.
Aim for at least 30 minutes of exercise each day to keep their bodies healthy and their minds engaged. They’re equally happy curling up on the couch after a solid play session, making them adaptable to active or laid-back lifestyles.
Training
Mini Cavoodles are bright and earnest, making training a breeze for even novice owners. Use positive reinforcement and plenty of praise to teach basic commands, good manners, and even fun tricks. Early socialisation will help them grow into well-rounded dogs.
Be sure to seek guidance from an expert to understand the breed’s needs and care requirements.
This serves as general knowledge and should not be solely relied upon for advice on adoption or buying decisions.
