Our Happy Clients!
Here are just a few words directly from our clients!
These folks are very open and informative. I had a very great experience. We were offered delivery but decided to pick our puppy up personally. They are very polite and explain everything very well. Highly recommend this breeder. My puppy is doing great, he is coping with us really well and is catching up pretty fast.
Thank you! 🙂
Wonderful experience!

I’m way more happy with the breeder, the service, transportation. Our covapoo Bella arrived on time scheduled, healthy and happy.. We only deposit little amount then paid the remaining balance when you see your puppy. The other story of mine before I found this breeder. Be honest, I got scammed, unfortunately 🥲..
Thanks Rhonda again and again. Bella is a lovely gift for our daughter birthday 💝💝.
I’m highly recommend this breeder family to all the family who’s a dogs lover 🥰😇.
I’m way more happy with

Caring For Your New Puppy
Thank you for considering Hickory Lane Paws! Here are a few tips for taking care of a brand new pup.
Feeding
Feed a good quality dog food like Nutri-Source, Royal Canine, Eucanuba or a quality brand you trust. We feed Nutri-Source, so if you want to transition to something else, mix your provided sample bag to whatever brand you decide on. Keep food and fresh water available at all times until your puppy is 12-16 weeks old.
Training
Pads are a great way to train your puppy. Place a pad in an area away from your puppy's bed and food. Put your puppy on the pad until he or she uses it. Make sure to give your puppy lots of praise and a treat if he/she does use it. Once they get in a routine you can move the pad outdoors to encourage them to go to outside.
Grooming
Brush your puppy daily. You may want to have your puppy groomed approximately every 6 weeks. Bath your puppy as needed.
Vaccination
Take your new puppy to the vet along with the shot records so your vet can continue with the vaccination program.
Our Breeds
Cavapoo
The Cavapoo is a designer breed — a cross between the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and Poodle dog breeds. Outgoing, playful, and curious, these pups inherit some of the best traits from both of their parents.
Cavapoo coats can be a variety of colors, including cream, fawn, chocolate, gold, chestnut, and white. They can sometimes be solid colors, but often they are chestnut and white, or they can even be tri-colored.
Cavapoos usually have short, soft, and wavy or curly coats. They require weekly brushing; although, they are somewhat less prone to shedding, which is why some allergy sufferers do well with them.
The Cavapoo loves everyone in the family and generally enjoys romping around with kids. That said, they are small and can be injured by children who play aggressively. Children should always be supervised with dogs and instructed on how to play safely.
French Bulldog
The French Bulldog has enjoyed a long history as a companion dog. Created in England to be a miniature Bulldog, they accompanied English lacemakers to France, where they acquired their “Frenchie” moniker.
Bat-eared but oddly beautiful, the French Bulldog has a unique appeal. Aesthetically, other breeds undeniably are more glamorous and showy, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder and what many behold in the French Bulldog are the attributes that make this breed one of the best companion dogs in the world today.
The French Bulldog is small but substantial in build with a powerful muscular body. He sports a short easy-care coat to accompany his easygoing personality. The Frenchie likes to play, but he also enjoys spending his days relaxing on the sofa.
Frenchies are loving companions who thrive on human contact. If you want an outdoor dog who can be left alone for long periods, the Frenchie is not the breed for you. This is a dog who enjoys lavishing love on his human companions as much as he loves the same treatment in return. They generally get along well with everyone, including children.
