Is it free to advertise here?

Yes. A breeder profile and your litter and stud dog adverts are free. Premium profiles, featured placement and sponsored articles are optional paid extras; see pricing.

Do I need a licence to advertise puppies?

In England you need a dog breeding licence from your council if you breed three or more litters in 12 months or breed and sell dogs as a business, and Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland have their own schemes. Licensed breeders show their licence number and issuing council on every advert. Puppies must be at least eight weeks old before they go to new homes.

Is my listing already here?

We add licensed breeders from councils' public registers. Search for your kennel name; if it is listed you can claim it and edit everything.

Buying a Cavapoo puppy

Searching for Cavapoo puppies for sale? The most important paperwork belongs to the parents. Ask for the Cavalier parent's current heart certificate, both parents' DNA results for curly coat/dry eye and episodic falling, and the Toy Poodle's prcd-PRA result and eye certificate. Puppies should be at least eight weeks old, microchipped and seen with their mother where they were born. A Cavapoo's coat may be silky like a Cavalier's or curly like a Poodle's, so plan for regular grooming either way and treat promises about non-shedding with caution. Cavapoos cannot go on the RKC Breed Register, so the puppy will have no RKC pedigree, although pure-bred parents may have one. Browse breeders listed on caninebreeder.co.uk and read our buyer safety guide before paying a deposit.

Health tests to ask about

The RKC has no health test list for the Cavapoo, because it is not a recognised breed, so each parent should be tested for the conditions the RKC recommends for its own breed. The BVA canine health schemes are open to crossbred dogs too.

The RKC names mitral valve disease (MVD), syringomyelia and inherited eye disease as the three main issues screened for in Cavaliers. Its heart scheme accepts Cavaliers from 18 months and recommends grading at 2, 4 and 6 years; red-graded dogs should not be bred from. Syringomyelia is diagnosed by MRI. The BVA Chiari malformation/syringomyelia (CM/SM) scheme grades scans and is open to all dogs, but it is not on the RKC's recommended list, so treat it as an optional extra for the Cavalier parent. The Cavalier is in Breed Watch Category 2, with concerns about eye discomfort, protruding eyes and hind movement; the Toy Poodle is in Category 1.

CC/DE and EF are recessive, so a puppy is affected only if both parents pass on the variant. From F1b onwards both parents may have Cavalier ancestry, so test both. No set of tests can guarantee a healthy puppy.

RKC recommendations for the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel:

  • DNA test for curly coat/dry eye (CC/DE): Good Practice
  • DNA test for episodic falling (EF): Good Practice
  • RKC Heart Scheme for Cavalier King Charles Spaniels (mitral valve disease): Good Practice
  • BVA/KC/ISDS Eye Scheme: Best Practice

RKC recommendations for the Toy Poodle:

  • DNA test for progressive retinal atrophy (prcd-PRA): Good Practice
  • BVA/KC/ISDS Eye Scheme: Best Practice
  • BVA/KC Hip Dysplasia Scheme: Best Practice
