A Very Special Crossbreed from Timshell Farm!

Silky/Spaniel Coat

Fluffy/Doodle Coat

What is a Golden Cava-Doodle?

A Golden Cava-Doodle from Timshell Farm has a medium or small Goldendoodle mother and a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel for the sire! This crossbreed has been several years in the making.

There are two distinctly different coat types or “looks”. Some of the puppies have a fluffy/doodle coat and look more like a Goldendoodle or soft-wave, shaggy dog.

Then, some of the puppies come out with the Silky/Spaniel type coat and look more like small, very pretty Golden Retrievers with a short snout; wide face; large, round eyes; and pretty ears that are longer and have little curls.

What are the traits that are bred for specifically? That is, there should be a good reason for a cross breeding that brings an improvement over both of the purebred parents. The Golden Cava-Doodles bring delightful qualities from their Goldendoodle and Cavalier King Charles Spaniel parents.

These nice-sized, family dogs are bred specifically for

Sunny personality with high intelligence
Happy, people-loving dispositions
Lower-shedding coats - beautiful, soft and shiny
Compact size, more portable yet still sturdy enough for play
Shorter noses and wide faces – large eyes and ears with silky curls
Some will be fluffy and some will have the more “Cavalier” look

By using quality adult dogs for parents, this specialty crossbreeding results in puppies with the “best of both worlds”. The Golden Cava-Doodles are bred to be gentle, loving family dogs that have the outstanding qualities of both wonderful parent dogs. The parents are highly intelligent, have great temperaments, with no “issues”. They have perfect dispositions and are loving, happy dogs.

Crossbreeding the Goldendoodle mother with a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel sire results in downsized puppies. The Golden Cava-Doodles are a portable, “comfortable” sized dog. The litters of small Golden Cava-Doodles will grow to be about 20 lbs. and the medium Golden Cava-Doodles will be 25 to 35-lbs, depending on the size of the parent dogs.

Golden Cava-Doodles are bred very specifically for temperament and sound health. They have a gentler energy level because of the Cavalier element – we call this the “Cavalier Magic”! The puppies are funny, playful and have sparkly personalities but are never hyper or yappy.
