Questions & Answers
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are beloved companions known for their loving disposition and playful spirit. Here are a few fun facts about them: These loyal pups have the distinction of being the only toy breed to have been created for the specific purpose of being a companion pet. They have a very long history, dating back to the 1600s. They have one of the most recognizable silhouettes, with long, silky flat fur and a large plumed tail. They have a very relaxed, gentle, and playful temperament which helps them fit into almost any home.
While some people may be sensitive to certain dog breeds, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are generally considered non-hypoallergenic. This means they will still produce dander and other proteins, which could cause allergy symptoms in certain people. However, it is much less likely that a Cavalier will trigger allergies in comparison to other breeds. If you are concerned about allergies, it is beneficial to meet with a Cavalier in person along with spending some time around them so you can assess if your allergies will be triggered.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels have special dietary requirements due to their delicate digestive system and small size. As a result, it's important to feed them a balanced, nutritional meal each day. A good diet for your Cavalier King Charles Spaniel should consist of high-quality dry food that is specific to their size, specifically tailored to their age and activity level. It's also beneficial to add some fresh fruits and vegetables, as well as heart-healthy fats such as salmon oil, to their meals.
It is important to properly prepare for your new Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. To begin, research the breed and the needs of a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel so you understand the characteristics of the breed, such as temperament and activity level. You'll also need to consider any special needs your dog might have such as needing to be groomed regularly or having special dietary considerations. Visit your veterinarian, and make sure all of his vaccinations and vet visits are up to date in order to keep your pet healthy and happy.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels come in three different sizes: Toy, which is under 8" tall; Ruby, which is 11-13" tall; and Blenheim, which is 13-15" tall. All three size types are recognized by the American Kennel Club and the English Kennel Club. While they were originally bred to be smaller, the larger sizes were added in the 1930s to gain favor in the show ring. The smallest size, Toy, is most often seen as a house pet as they do best in smaller areas.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are an active breed and need a good amount of exercise to remain healthy. Generally, they should be walked for at least 30 minutes a day to get the proper amount of exercise. If possible, take your Cavalier for two walks a day and mix in playtime in a secure area for regular bursts of energy. Keep in mind, the shorter face of the breed makes it less tolerant of heat and humidity, so exercise outdoors should take place in cool and comfortable temps. Make sure to closely monitor them when out and about as they can be prone to overheating.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels (CKCS) are known for their outgoing and friendly personalities, which make them an ideal addition to any family. These loving, sociable dogs are great with children and make excellent companions for both young and old. CKCS's can be taught to obey commands and perform tricks, which is why they are such great family pets. CKCS's require plenty of exercise, attention and love, making them a great fit for those who are willing to give themselves in equal measure.
Training a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is achievable with dedication, consistency and positive reinforcement. This breed of dog is known to be an intelligent and loyal companion and can be easily trained given the right amount of attention. That said, it's important to bear in mind that they are not a naturally obedient breed, so unexpected responses can occasionally occur when training. If you remain patient and consistent in your approach, over time you will be able to shape your Cavalier's behaviour and teach them the commands that you choose.
