How to groom a cavoodle (Cavalier King Charles Spaniel cross Miniature Poodle)?
wondering if anyone knows how to properly groom cavoodles or just dogs in general.
A cavadoodle will need to be brushed at least every other day to avoid becoming matted. It should be bathed once a month and not any sooner than that otherwise it will dry out their skin causing them to itch. Be sure to use Shampoo made for dogs .If you use human shampoo you will dry out the skin because we have a different PH balance. Basically when you give the dog a bath yourself when you put on the shampoo get the shampoo into a nice lather. Take a slicker brush and brush the dog with the shampoo on. This will get the dog really clean to the skin. After that you can put on conditioner and repeat the process. Then thoroughly rinse and towel or blow dry. If you want you could purchase a small blow dryer for dogs. Here is the website where you can get it wholesale. I have this same dryer and use it on my Cavalier King Charles Spaniel's.

get a dog brush and carefully brush but if he yelps stop and do it more gentle but first give him a bath but don't get him wet over his color or ear infection might happen do his head with a damp towel

I've been a professional dog groomer for 10 years. I groom dogs for the show ring.
With a mix like that it would depend if it takes after the Poodle side or the Cav side.
Cavs get brushed and bathed and no trimming. Good daily brushing in between, nails and ears.
I have trimmed feet on them even tho the show dogs do not get trimmed feet. Owners were horrified, but loved it later. I did it because they never kept her feet brushed out. So when she got older I trimmed up her feet nicely like a Springer Spaniel.
Poodles types, clipped and bathed every 4-6 weeks and daily brushing. Nails and ears of course. As far as what type of haircut? Ask the groomer and look at pics.
Google grooming the breeds names and see what you find. To much for me to type.
