Questions & Answers
A Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is a breed of small-sized spaniel that is classified as a toy breed. It is a breed that is known for its small size, friendly temperament, and those lustrous silky ears. They were developed and named after King Charles II who was very fond of the breed. The breed was originally developed and bred as a lapdog and a companion, making it a perfect companion pet. They have a hereditary predisposition to be outgoing and enduring, making them very lovable and obedient.
Although most people associate Cavalier King Charles Spaniels with being non-shedding, the breed does still have a low level of shedding that may require some grooming and maintenance. These dogs have fur that needs to be kept groomed and trimmed, and it will still shed at least a small amount and require weekly brushing. While the shedding may be minimal, it will occur, so regular attention is needed to keep their fur healthy, soft, and free from loose hairs. Additionally, some cavs do have slight fur allergies which can cause them to shed more than others.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are highly intelligent, loyal, and loving dogs that need proper nutrition and care for a long and healthy life. When it comes to what to feed your Cavalier, look for a high-quality, nutritionally-balanced dog food. It's important to know your dog's specific dietary requirements, as nutrient levels differ from one dog to the next, and switch-ups in diet can lead to digestive issues.
Learning as much as you can about the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is the first step to becoming the best puppy parent possible. Familiarize yourself with the breed's physical traits, characteristics, and common health issues. Research the diet that is best for your puppy and be aware of which medical treatments may be necessary depending on the age of your furry friend. Make sure you have all the necessary supplies, such as a leash, collar, kennel, food bowls, and appropriate toys. When your puppy arrives, be patient and remember that consistency is key with training.
The size of a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel puppy varies depending on its individual genetics, but on average, you can expect your pup to reach a height of between 12 to 13 inches and a weight of anywhere between 12 to 18 pounds when fully-grown. Your puppy may be a bit larger or smaller than these averages, though, so it’s important to give your new pet plenty of love and nutrition so that it can develop properly. Remember, this breed is a small dog already, so you must take extra care of its health and wellbeing.
The amount of time you should walk your Cavalier King Charles Spaniel each day depends on the individual pup’s age, health, and level of energy. Generally, it’s recommended that you provide at least 30 minutes of physical activity to your pup every day. This can include exploration in the backyard, a brisk walk, or a game of fetch. With regular physical activity, a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel should be able to meet their daily exercise needs in 30-45 minutes a day, however, some may need up to an hour.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are excellent family dogs! They are very loyal, loving, and affectionate companions and are known for their intelligence and playfulness. They get along very well with children and make great playmates, and they also get along with other pets. Their sweet, gentle disposition makes them a good fit for any family. Cavaliers do not require a lot of exercise, but they still need plenty of activity and stimulation. They love going for walks and playing, and are perfect for novice dog owners who want a companion that is easy to train and maintain.
Training a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, or any dog for that matter, can be as difficult or as easy depending on a mix of factors, such as the individual dog's temperament, age, experience, and the owner's level of patience and commitment. These lovely dogs are known to be loyal and eager to please, which can make them highly trainable. It's important to remember to use positive reinforcement when training, as rewards can encourage desired behaviours faster than punishments.
