Summary
About German Spaniel (Wachtelhund)
Medium, robust German hunting spaniel built for dense cover, with a thick, weather‑resistant coat in brown or brown-white. Very loyal, often one-person focused yet family friendly. Highly energetic, driven working gundog that needs intensive exercise and meaningful tasks; still uncommon outside Germany.
About Cavachon
The Cavachon is a small, sturdy Cavalier–Bichon cross with a soft, low‑shedding coat needing regular grooming. Friendly and people‑oriented, it suits families, apartments, and moderate exercise. Intelligent yet sensitive, it dislikes long solitude and thrives on gentle training and companionship.
