Description
Beautiful litter of 3 fluffy, silky soft 'designer cross breed' gorgeous puppies bred for cuteness, temperament and health. Mother (Coton de Tulear) and Father (Cavalier King Charles Spaniel) both are KC registered with papers that can be viewed. This is a deliberate cross to give you the excellent temperament of the Cavalier with the excellent health (and temperament) of the Coton de Tulear. Inherited health issues is a big concern in pure bred Cavaliers and it is said to be 'bred out' in first generation crosses. Boy - Lucky (photo 1) - Reserved Girl - Molly (photo 2) - Reserved Boy - Sweet Potato (photo 3) - Reserved Sorry photos are not great as I had to wake them all up to take the photos so they may look a bit grumpy and confused! The first 3 single puppy photos were taken at 5 weeks 4 days (today). The photos further along are the puppies much younger but gives you an idea of the markings on their bodies. The video at the end is the puppies showing their love of slippers! Puppies have patchy coloured noses right now but as they get older they will be full black like their mum and sibling. These puppies are all incredibly healthy, sweet and cuddly. Cavaton's make excellent best friends, work buddies, housework inspectors! and family pets as they love to follow you around and just be in your company. They seem to be able to make each person in the family believe you are their 'person'! Info about Coton du Tulears 1. One of the 10 rarest dog breeds 2. Non-shedding and hypoallergenic 3. No doggy odour due to hair not fur 4. One of the least 'barky / yappy' dog breeds which is an advantage over 'Cavashons' (Cavaliers x Bishons as Bishons are known for being 'barky'). 5. They are the Royal dog of Madagascar! 6. One of the healthiest pure bred breeds 7. Cotons have a healthy nose length (not squashed!) while Cavaliers have a shorter nose length which can cause breathing issues. This designer cross breeds out this issue as the puppies have a longer nose length than the Cavalier but still very cute! 8. Cotons do have long hair (not fur) so they don't shed but they need to be brushed a few times a week or you can get them clipped every 6 weeks depending on your preference and time constraints. Although Coton's and Cavaliers have long hair but it stops growing at a medium length unlike Maltese, Poodles or Yorkie breeds that must be clipped because the hair just gets longer and longer. This makes Cotons, Cavaliers and Cavatons a bit easier to keep in a full coat, without clipping if you wish to brush them regularly. . . . and you can google lots more about this fantastic lesser-known breed of Coton de Tulear. These gorgeous puppies have been bought up in our family home and both parents are family pets (although we don't own the father). We have Mother, Grandmother and a full sibling from our first litter who is two years old who can be met so you can see what an excellent dog Cavatons are. Photo of the 4 adult dogs shows in the middle mum who is white and next to her a full sibling who (like this litter) is brown and white. Coton's have long fur and all 4 dogs in the photo have had hair cuts (sometimes I do and sometimes I don't have them long!). I apologise for the picture of 'mum and puppies' but this was taken 'moments after birth' but is a requirement for posting the ad so you can see mum and puppies but mum is obviously not looking her best! There are three gorgeous puppies in this litter, and their little personalities are really starting to come out. Mum has only had one litter before and she self-whelped all these lovely healthy puppies. Mum is to be neutered so these puppies will never be available again!! We have cats so the 3 puppies are being brought up used to cats. Puppies will be available to collect on 23rd November when they are 8 weeks and 2 days old. The 3 puppies are already microchipped and well on their way to being housetrained with regular access to the garden. The puppies are used to sleeping in a crate at night and rampaging around the garden and kitchen at regular intervals during the day. Puppies will have received their first vaccination at 8 weeks (puppies can not start their vaccinations any earlier than 8 weeks as they receive immunity from their fully vaccinated mother until then) and will be wormed, fled and vet checked by the collection date. Happy for you to visit the little sleepy rascals / puppies so you can smell their puppy breath and get some puppy kisses with no obligation. Please contact me with any questions or requests to visit.

Buyer's checklist for dogs and puppies

Be responsible, do your research!

Be responsible, do your research!

Rehoming a puppy is a massive commitment and different breeds have vastly different characteristics. For more info read our breed profiles. Make sure that you have researched the breed fully and ensured that it's the right breed for you, and your family. Our friends at PAAG have put together some great advice on how to buy a pet. Also ensure that the seller or breeder is genuine and ask alot of questions. A good breeder will help you choose a puppy whose temperament will suit your lifestyle and family circumstances, and won’t rush you into making a decision. Here are the most important questions to ask the breeder before viewing a puppy.

Puppies must be viewed with their mother in the seller's home!

Puppies must be viewed with their mother in the seller's home!

Always view the puppy at the seller’s home with the puppy’s mother. Do not accept any excuses for sending money without a viewing having taken place, or if the advertiser attempts to meet you at any other location than their own home. Unscrupulous sellers will often suggest another location to avoid showing the puppy’s true living conditions. The advertiser should ALWAYS let you see the puppies interact with their mother. Pets4Homes do not allow third party sale of puppies and all litters of puppies advertised, MUST have been bred by the advertiser. Make sure that the interaction between the puppy and its mother is natural to avoid the setting being staged.

Ask lots of questions

Ask lots of questions

Reputable breeders will be happy to answer any questions you have to help you find the right puppy. Important questions are about health tests and checks, the puppy’s parents, and much more.

Listen closely, is the breeder being evasive? If so, they may have something to hide.

Puppies must be 8 weeks when collected

Puppies must be 8 weeks when collected

Puppies must be at least 8 weeks old and fully weaned before they can leave their mothers. Please make sure to check the paperwork to ensure the puppy is old enough.

Microchips are a legal requirement

Microchips are a legal requirement

By law, all dogs over 8 weeks must be microchipped. Ask the seller for evidence and how to transfer the microchip details.

For puppies, breeders need to microchip their puppies under their own details first. You should ask for a copy before collection and never accept any excuse for sending them later.

Check the registered address matches where you visited. Puppy farmers will try and explain away why details don’t match - walk away.

Know your breeders

Know your breeders

Licensed breeders: Licensing regulations vary across the UK so please check the rules on your local council’s website or where you plan to buy.

Licensed breeders need to pass strict inspections to get their licence. They will be given a star rating from 1 to 5 and undergo periodic re-inspections to ensure they are meeting welfare standards. Pets4Homes checks their licence to give them the green badge on their advert. You can filter by licensed breeders in the search results.

Hobby breeders: These breeders usually have litters every now and then but don’t do it often enough to require a licence. Hobby breeders usually focus on one or two breeds and will be just as happy as licensed breeders to provide viewings with the mother and paperwork.

Puppy farmers: These are the ones to avoid! They can be hard to spot but they won’t do everything in this checklist. Look out for people avoiding your questions, trying to hide the pup’s mother, not showing an interest in how you will look after the puppy, or pressuring you to make a decision. Keep an eye out for any differences in addresses or personal details on paperwork too.

Health tests

Health tests

Great breeders will health test the parents to look for genetic conditions or potential diseases. Tests include hip scores, elbow scores, inbreeding coefficients, and many more. Different breeds have different tests - see our breed profiles.

Ask what health tests have been done and for paperwork to prove the results.

Breeders who do these tests tend to have healthier pups and will likely charge more as a result of running the tests.

Health check & paperwork

Health check & paperwork

The seller should be willing to let you take the pet to a vet of your choice for a health check and return the pet within 48 hours for a full refund if there are health issues. If the puppy has already been health checked, make sure you have this documented and phone their vet. The vet may not be able to disclose specific health information due to GDPR, however they should confirm the puppies have been checked. When you meet the puppy, they should be sociable and alert, with bright eyes and no visible health issues. Read about how to check the health of a dog here.

If the breeder claims the animal has been vaccinated and/or microchipped, ask to see records of these, including vaccination certificates and evidence of worming and flea treatments. It is required by law that all dogs over 8 weeks of age are microchipped and that the keepers' details registered against them are kept up to date. The breeder is responsible for microchipping the puppies and must have their details registered on the microchip database first. These records should be sent before collection and you should never accept any excuse for sending them later. For puppies, if they are advertised as Kennel Club registered, make sure you get a copy of their Registration Certificate before you buy the puppy.

Vaccinations

Vaccinations

If the breeder says the pet has been vaccinated ask to see vaccination certificates and any paperwork.

Worms and flea treatments

Worms and flea treatments

Ask about the puppy’s worms and fleas treatment schedule. Depending on the breeder’s schedule you may need to do the final treatments yourself.

Pet Payment & contract

Pet Payment & contract

Never pay for a puppy you haven’t met - not even a deposit. We suggest you pay through via Pet Payments to get the Pets4Homes Guarantee which protects against fraud and congenital illness and fights puppy farmers.

Deposits are usually considered non-refundable but are refundable with Pet Payments if the breeder is at fault.

If you do decide to pay offline, always know you can walk away at any time and report the seller to us.

We also encourage all new puppy owners to sign a contract with the seller to make sure that what has been agreed is formalised. You can find a specialised puppy contract here.

Trust your gut and walk away

Trust your gut and walk away

If you think a puppy may be the result of irresponsible breeding, do not “rescue” the puppy no matter how much you want to. We know it’s very hard but walk away and report the seller to us and your local council immediately. Save yourself the heartbreak and do the right thing.

You can read stories of people who got caught up with puppy farmers here.

Get your dog insured!

Get your dog insured!

You should always get your pet insured as the cost of unexpected vet bills can be very high. Insure as early as possible as companies do not usually cover existing medical conditions. You want to be insured before anything develops.
