TEMPERAMENT AND TRAINABILITY
Cavachons are such happy dogs. They are very friendly and social with other people and dogs.

They are excellent companion dogs for children and adults. This is a very energetic hybrid
that keeps its joy into old age and should be afforded every opportunity for socialization and play.
Training is a pleasure with the Cavachon, as it is highly motivated to please its owner and is better than most at maintaining its focus for long periods as long as it is receiving positive feedback and plenty of praise. Like most dogs, it does not respond well to criticism and should be allowed a break if its attention appears to wander.
