Questions & Answers
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are a small breed of dog that have been favored by European royalty for centuries. Though often known for their gentle and friendly nature, they are actually descended from ancient hunting dogs and are quite efficent hunters. Not only that, but they are often alert and watchful, and will bark to alert their owners when something is amiss. Unlike many of their other canine relatives, Cavaliers are more likely to bark out of happiness rather than fear or aggression.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are not considered non-shedding, but they do have a low-shedding coat that only needs minimal upkeep. They have a medium-length, soft fur that requires some daily brushing and occasional professional grooming. Their outer coat is often kept long and wavy, which can lead to some shedding throughout the year but is manageable for the average pet owner. They may shed more heavily during certain seasons but their friendly and cheerful personality, as well as their loyal and affectionate nature, make them a great pet for many homes.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels should be fed a balanced diet that is specifically designed to meet the dietary needs and nutritional requirements for the breed. A high-quality dry kibble, supplemented with wet canned food, is typically recommended. Additionally, adding a tiny bit of healthy vegetables to their diet is beneficial. Be sure to follow the package instructions when it comes to serving sizes and frequency so your Cavalier companion can benefit from the quality nutrition it deserves. Be mindful that this breed is prone to obesity, so portion size and frequency should be closely monitored.
To prepare for your new Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, it is important to start with the basics. Make sure to invest in a quality food tailored to the specific needs of a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, as well as a comfortable bed, collar, leash, appropriate toys, a grooming brush and any other items you may need for their well-being. Researching and consulting with a veterinarian is necessary in order to assess any individual health concerns or dietary needs your pup may have.
The size of your Cavalier King Charles Spaniel puppy will be determined by a variety of factors. Generally, when fully grown, the breed typically stands between 12 and 13 inches in height and can weigh between 13 and 18 pounds. If your puppy's parents were larger, it could reach up to 20 pounds. As puppies, they usually grow quickly during their first few months, adding about a pound per month until they hit the six-month mark. Keep in mind, the exact size of your puppy can be affected by diet, exercise, and other genetic factors.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are indeed active dogs. These toy-sized pooches have a lot of energy for their small size, which can make them a great fit for an active family or individual. They love to walk, whether it is a quick jaunt around the block or a longer hike with their humans. They also enjoy playing, running around, and going to doggy daycare to socialize and tire themselves out. Although activity level can vary from dog to dog, almost all Cavaliers need physical and mental exercise to keep them stimulated and healthy.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are very friendly, loving and affectionate dogs and have a tendency to form strong emotional bonds with their family, including children. They are incredibly patient and gentle dogs that are easily adaptable and are great with children. They tend to be emotional and sensitive which means they will take great pleasure in playing with and cuddling with young children. They are easy to train, so learning their boundaries and instilling good habits with children is a great way to ensure a loving, happy relationship between them.
Training a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel requires consistency, patience, and a great deal of positive reinforcement. Start by teaching the dog basic commands such as sit, stay and come; once he masters these commands, move on to more advanced training. Obedience-based activities such as agility and Rally are great ways to build the bond between you and your dog and help create a calm, consistent, and secure living environment. Be sure to reward your dog's progress with praise and treats.
