Questions & Answers
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are a delightful, loving breed of small, yet sturdy, dogs. They are often very companionable, making them great family pets. These dogs sport a beautiful silky, long coat of colors consisting of black and tan, ruby and blenheim though the blenheim is the most common. They are also quite intelligent and learn quickly, but can occasionally be stubborn or independent. Cavaliers can be slightly sensitive, and so it's important to handle, train and discipline them with a soft hand.
There is no definitive answer as to whether or not Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are hypoallergenic. While their short and non-shedding coats are likely to produce less of an allergenic reaction in the average person, individuals with pet allergies may still experience a reaction when interacting with a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. Additionally, genetics, environment, and individual human reactions to fur and dander all contribute to the degree to which a person's allergies will be triggered.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are small and energetic dogs with hearty appetites. To keep them healthy and active, the best food for your Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is one formulated for their size and age. Puppy formulas for small breeds are best for puppies, and regular adult formulas are good for adult dogs. Meals should have a balance of both protein and carbohydrates, with healthy fats as well as essential vitamins, minerals, and amino acids. Avoid inexpensive, bulk-filled foods, like corn and wheat, as they can cause long-term health problems.
To ensure your home is properly prepared for your new Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, begin by puppy-proofing. Block off any areas that could pose a risk such as stairs, balconies, and areas where electrical cords are present. Stock up on chew toys to discourage your pup from chewing furniture; dog biscuits, treats and food for nutritional needs; and a collar with a tag for safety. Also consider investing in a crate, which should be the pup's safe haven and a positive place to retreat.
Generally, Cavaliers King Charles Spaniel puppies reach their full adult size by the time they are 9 to 12 months old. At that age, a male may weigh 13 to 18 pounds, while a female may weigh 12 to 17 pounds. However, size will vary slightly depending on the lineage, food consumption, and exercise habits. While full size is achieved by 1 year of age, Cavaliers will continue to mature throughout their lifespan, so they may gradually gain some weight as they age.
The amount of exercise a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel needs can vary depending on their age and energy level. Generally speaking, these dogs require moderate to regular exercise around 20 to 30 minutes of activity a day. Older or less active Cavalier King Charles Spaniels may not need as much physical activity, while more energetic or active dogs should have longer walks or playtime. To keep your pup healthy and happy, it is important to find an exercise routine that suits his individual needs.
