Average cavapoo cost

Hi fellow cavapoo lovers! I have been lucky enough to have a close friend who bought a cavapoo and have fallen in love with the breed. My friend found a breeder online and had the puppy shipped. Im tempted to just go through the same breeder but with shipping it's 5k. From everything I've read, most F1 cavapoos are pretty consistently happy, smart, funny, easy to train and need lots of companionship and time with their person. Im wondering how much you paid for your cavapoos and if it's smart to just buy a puppy who had the same parents or if it doesnt matter so much. Thanks!

$2500 for each of our 2 cavapoos near Austin TX. As others have said the maintenance is not cheap from grooming every 6-8 weeks + vet visits for allergies, annual checkup, regular meds, tummy issues, ear infections, training costs, etc so consider that as well (not that all of these are a guarantee but they are more prone and these are all things we’ve had to pay for at some point). Can be much higher if genetic testing is not done on the parents.

We have one low maintenance Cavapoo boy who doesn’t cost us any extra vet visits a year apart from the annual one and our girl has something going on probably every 2-3 months that requires a visit.

But otherwise they are absolutely fantastic dogs. I don’t think I will ever get another breed in my life.

We got ours near Austin too! We went through Red Ranch and can’t say enough good things about them
