Cavapoo Lifespan: How Long Do Cavapoos Live?

A Cavapoo lifespan can vary. On average, Cavapoos tend to live between 12 to 15 years. However, with proper care, regular vet check-ups, and a healthy lifestyle, some Cavapoos have been known to live even longer.

Cavapoo & Mini Cavapoo Characteristics

Cavapoos, a hybrid breed of King Cavalier Spaniel and a Toy or Mini Poodle, have quickly gained popularity recently and it isn’t hard to see why. Despite some variations in traits, many Cavapoos typically have a soft, hypoallergenic coat, a round face, and wide, bright eyes. They are suitable for many family types due to their hypoallergenic nature and small build. But how long can you expect to have your Cavapoo companion around?

Common Health Conditions Affecting Cavapoo Lifespan

Cavapoos are generally a healthy breed however, there are a few health conditions that can affect them. Health problems such as heart conditions, an inherited progressive neurological disease, a disorder called syringomyelia, cherry eye, and dry eye are noted health problems in the King Cavalier breed, noted by Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Club. The Poodle Club Of America notes Addison’s Disease, diabetes, Cushing’s Disease, and bloat as health conditions affecting Poodles. Cavapoos could also be affected by hip dysplasia and other joint issues so it is imperative that breeders conduct genetic testing prior to breeding. This ensures longevity of not only your Cavapoo lifespan, but the breed as whole. Here at Jones Farms we conduct over 250 genetic tests prior to breeding to ensure our puppies are healthy and genetically sound. 

Nutrition For Optimal Aging of Cavapoo Lifespan

While Cavapoos are typically healthy eaters, they will most likely eat anything you put in front of them. To help support a healthy Cavapoo lifespan wit a healthy weight, follow the 90:10 rule. 90% of your Cavapoos calories should be food, while only 10% should be treats. Cavapoos are also eager eaters and can end up trying to eat inedible or dangerous objects. Make sure to keep small objects away. Make sure to speak with your breeder or your vet in regard to the best pet food for your Cavapoo. Most times, your breeder will have already started your pup on solid food so it’s important to continue with their recommendations. Also, know that nutrition needs change with age so it’s important to ask your breeder for recommendations based on the age of your Cavapoo. Jones Farm prefers an all natural, holistic, chemical free approach to feeding kibble and we also recommend a great freeze dried raw food. 

Keeping Your Mini Cavapoo Physically Active

Despite their small stature, mini Cavapoos are intelligent, energetic, and playful. They enjoy living in active households and getting plenty of exercise. Not only is exercise important for their physical health, it’s important for their mental health as well, which both contribute to Cavapoo lifespan. Walking your Cavapoo 2-3x/daily can help keep them physically active it can also expose them to new things. And active pets are less likely to be fearful. Walking also gives you time to train and reinforce good leash etiquette. car rides are wonderful too! Did you know that one 10 minute car ride can be as mentally exhilarating for a cavapoo as a one hour walk? 

Why Choose A Cavapoo?

Not only are Cavapoos and Mini Cavapoos adorable, many are also hypoallergenic and remain small, even fully grown. This combination of traits makes this breed suitable for many families and dog lovers of all ages. Cavapoos require routine veterinary care and grooming so it is important to consider these needs before bringing a Cavapoo into your home. Cavapoos are also fairly easy to train and socialize due to their high intelligence and eagerness to please.
