We raise the Cavapoo, as per the ethical breeding practices based on trials and studies done on minimizing the genetic defects in dogs through breeding strategies from the scientists at the University of Edinburgh’s Roslin Institut from their recommendations which have reviewed the various approaches to minimize potential defects in dogs, and especially for breeds like the *purebred* Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and the need for out-crossing to unrelated dogs for diversity and health, while still maintaining a family line  to retain predictability of traits, and sustainability of health and type.  The Roslin Institute's review is published in Canine Genetics and Epidemiology.  You can read more on the link box below:
