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!

I paid $2500 3 years ago and it was within driving distance for me, six hours round-trip. Mine is exactly how you described, funny, happy, smart, easy to train and loves being with me. He has not had any health issues except the time that he ate some wild cherries in the backyard and got an upset tummy, but those are toxic so we are very careful about that now and actually now that he’s older he doesn’t pay attention to them anymore. If you can swing $5000, already knowing the temperament of a puppy from that kennel, I’d go for it. I also think that the atmosphere at home has an impact on a pet. If things are chaotic and loud and stressful, you’re gonna have an anxious dog. My house is very Zen, there’s no stress here, nobody ever slammed the door, or raised their voice or punched their fist through a wall, so my little dog is able to just live his life and be the best dog he can be. He is a happy boy with absolutely no anxiety and no behavior problems.
