Questions & Answers
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are the perfect combination of affectionate and playful. While they are ideal lap dogs, they still love to take part in outdoor activities like fetch or trampoline jumping. They come in four different colors; ruby, black and tan, tri-color, and blenheim. These dogs have an incredibly long lifespan, with many living well over 10 years, and some even up to 16 years! Cavalier King Charles Spaniels have royal roots, being a favorite of many kings and queens of England throughout the 17th century.
No, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are not hypoallergenic dogs. They have a moderate to heavy shedding coat which often releases pet dander into the air, making them a poor choice for individuals with allergies. Despite their shedding, their coats provide insulation as they are double coats composed of a silky outer coat and a tufted undercoat. Brushing can help keep their coats healthy and minimize shedding, but not completely eliminate it.
Your Cavalier King Charles Spaniel will need a diet that is rich in animal proteins, complex carbohydrates, and beneficial fats. Feed them a high-quality diet that is specifically designed for this breed, as a diet rich in nutrients is essential to keep them in good health. Your pup should be fed 2 to 3 meals a day that are split into smaller portions so they don’t become overweight. Give them plenty of fresh, clean water throughout the day, as well. Eating special treats should be kept to a minimum, as they are not a substitute for a healthy, balanced diet.
Becoming the best puppy parent before your Cavalier King Charles Spaniel arrives requires hard work and dedication. Start by researching the breed and its specific needs, so you can create an environment that allows your puppy to thrive. Additionally, create a schedule for potty training, feeding, and other important routines early on. This will make the transition into your home much smoother. Ensure you have all the necessary supplies, including quality food, chew toys, a comfortable crate, and a leash.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels come in the same size as most other spaniels, which is approximately 12-13 inches at the shoulder and 18-19 pounds at its fullest growth. They typically range in color from Blenheim (white and chestnut), Ruby (rich chestnut red), Black and Tan, and Tri-color (white, chestnut, and black). While smaller-sized dogs experiencing growth problems can sometimes exist, most adults reach their full size at around 12 months of age.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels need a good amount of exercise in order to stay healthy and happy. They are a moderately active breed, so about 60 minutes of exercise daily is ideal for a fully grown adult. This can be made up of regular walks and/or playing in a safely enclosed area, such as a fenced-in yard or park. Physical activity will help to keep your dog's weight in check and allow them to burn off excess energy. Additionally, it will help them stay mentally stimulated, as they have a high need for companionship and love to be around their humans.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels make wonderful family dogs! They are incredibly affectionate and loyal companions, often forming incredibly strong bonds with the people they love. Being intelligent and eager to please, they are great companions to both children and adults alike. Cavaliers have a moderate activity level and typically get along well with other household pets. They require exercise and mental stimulation, so steps should be taken to ensure your Cavalier is getting the necessary amount of physical and mental activities for a healthy and well-balanced life.
Training your Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is an important and enjoyable part of being a pet parent. To get started, you will need plenty of patience and positive reinforcement. Begin with simple commands like sit, stay and come. Once your pup masters these commands, gradually add more challenging commands. Be sure to reward your puppy with a treat and lots of praise when he gets it right. As he gets more advanced, use reward-based training techniques, such as clicker-training.
