Breed Guide

Cavapoo Grooming in Grantham

The Cavapoo - a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel crossed with a Poodle - is a gentle, loving breed with a beautifully soft coat that needs regular professional care to stay in perfect condition.

About the Breed

Cavapoo Coat & Grooming Overview

Cavapoos are renowned for their sweet temperament, making them a joy to groom. They're generally calm and cooperative, which is a real advantage in the salon. That said, their soft, wavy or curly coats are prone to matting - especially behind the ears, under the legs, and around the collar.

Because Cavapoos vary in how much Poodle versus Cavalier coat they inherit, there's a good range of coat textures. Some are quite wavy and slightly Spaniel-like; others have tighter curls more similar to a Poodle. Both need regular brushing and professional grooming.

We always take a gentle, careful approach with Cavapoos. They respond beautifully to calm handling and we work to make their salon experience as enjoyable as possible. Many become regular visitors who trot in happily from the very first appointment.
