Cavachon Puppy Apricot & Cream Boy | Mini Size - 18 or so (???) Pounds Grown

Fletcher Hayes arrived in this world with two things in abundance: big feet and an old soul. The feet are immediately obvious — gloriously oversized, charmingly clumsy, the kind of paws that seem to show up long before he enters the room 😂

The old soul reveals itself more quietly, in the moments he’s not romping in normal puppy style, the way he gazes somberly at you with those chocolate brown eyes of his. Just being certain that you know he thinks you’re the center of his small universe, and in case you’d forgotten, he loves you more than even his most favorite stuffed crocodile.

Ah, but let the little people arrive, and he puts on entirely a new puppy hat, the dignified gentleman takes a brief sabbatical, and in his place appears a gallumping, ears-flopping force of nature that is Fletcher Hayes in full joyful flight! Gallump, Gallump, Gallump —across the floor, around the corner, and into the heart of every child in the room.

He doesn't run so much as commit, those spectacular feet hitting the floor with the kind of enthusiastic percussion that makes kids shriek with laughter and adults grab their coffee mugs. He is the world's most distinguished puppy by day and the greatest playmate in the known universe on demand. He’s more than happy to morph into whatever the moment calls for; he’s that kind of puppy guy.

Fletcher Hayes is the puppy for the family that needs both — the snuggly, settled companion who anchors the quiet evenings by the fire, and the cheerful chaos agent who makes sure the kids are properly worn out before bed. He will eventually grow into a handsome, soulful Cavachon gentleman, those legendary feet finally — finally — growing into their destiny. Families who find their way to Fletcher Hayes tend to feel, almost immediately, that he was always supposed to be theirs. He has that effect on people. Old souls usually do. 🐾
