At Jones Farm Puppies, we’ve met a lot of adorable dogs, but few turn heads (or melt hearts) quite like the Tricolor Cavapoo. With their striking mix of black, white, and tan, these pups are like walking works of art. But behind the beautiful coat is a personality that’s just as charming.

So if you’ve been wondering what makes a Tricolor Cavapoo special, besides their obvious good looks, you’re in the right place. Let’s dive into the details, answer your top questions, and share what it’s really like to raise one of these stunning pups.

What Is a Tricolor Cavapoo?

A Tricolor Cavapoo is a Cavapoo (a mix between a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and a Poodle) that has a coat made up of three distinct colors, typically black, white, and tan. This pattern is inherited from the Cavalier side, where tricolor is a recognized and beloved coat type.

They often have:

• A mostly black body
• White blaze or chest
• Tan eyebrows and cheek spots

They’re adorable, yes, but they’re also packed with personality.

Do Tricolor Cavapoos Have Different Temperaments?

Nope, coat color doesn’t affect personality, but we get the question often! That said, Tricolor Cavapoos tend to act like they know they’re stylish. They’re confident, outgoing, and have a little extra flair when they strut across the room.

All Cavapoos, regardless of coat, share some lovely traits:

• Friendly and social with both people and pets
• Intelligent and easy to train
• Affectionate and eager to please
• Playful, but not hyper

And when bred ethically, their personalities shine even more. At Jones Farm Puppies, we prioritize temperament testing and early socialization to ensure your Tricolor Cavapoo has the best possible start.

Why Are Tricolor Cavapoos in High Demand?

There’s no denying it, tricolor Cavapoos are in high demand. Here’s why:

1. Unique, photogenic appearance
2. Connection to Cavalier show lines
3. Their coats tend to be low to non-shedding when paired with a Poodle parent

Due to their popularity, tricolor pups are often reserved quickly. At Jones Farm Puppies, we maintain a waitlist and carefully match puppies with families based on fit, not just color. Beauty matters, but personality comes first.

Grooming and Coat Care for Tricolor Cavapoos

Whether your Cavapoo is tricolor, Merle , red or cream, coat care is important. Most Tricolor Cavapoos have wavy to curly coats, which means regular grooming is essential to keep them healthy and tangle-free.

Tips:

• Brush 3–4 times a week to avoid mats
• Schedule professional grooming every 6–8 weeks
• Clean eyes, ears, and trim nails regularly

Bonus tip: Their tan points really pop after a good bath and fluff. Just saying.

Ethical Breeding and the Tricolor Cavapoo

Tricolor Cavapoos are beautiful, but not every breeder approaches them with care. That’s why we do things differently at Jones Farm Puppies.

Every Tricolor Cavapoo we raise comes from health-tested parents and is raised with:

• Early socialization to household sounds, children, and other pets
• Routine vet care and vaccinations
• A health guarantee that reflects our long-term commitment

Color should never come at the cost of quality. We never breed solely for color; we prioritize temperament, health, and structure above all else. A gorgeous coat is just the icing on the (adorable) cake.

Life With a Tricolor Cavapoo

Here’s what you can expect living with one of these sweethearts:

• They’ll follow you everywhere. Like, everywhere.
• They make great travel companions, whether you’re heading to grandma’s or hitting the road for a weekend adventure.
• They love to learn, and training is fun and rewarding for both of you.
• They’re social butterflies, so prepare for new friends at the park.

We’ve had families tell us their Tricolor Cavapoo became the unofficial mascot of the neighborhood. Honestly? We believe it.

Final Thoughts

The Tricolor Cavapoo is more than a pretty face—they’re the total package. Smart, affectionate, friendly, and wrapped in a one-of-a-kind coat. And when raised with love and intention (like we do at Jones Farm Puppies), they grow into confident, well-adjusted companions.

If you’re lucky enough to bring one home, prepare to be stopped on every walk, and prepare to fall in love a little more every day.
