Questions & Answers
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are a small breed of dog originally from England. They have a friendly, outgoing personality and a long, silky coat of fur. These dogs are not high energy, but they do need plenty of exercise. In fact, they were originally bred to accompany their owners on horseback hunting trips. Fun facts about this breed include the fact that they have an average lifespan of between nine and fifteen years, which is on the longer side for small breeds. They have a strong affinity for cuddling, and are incredibly loyal companions.
The answer is no. Unfortunately, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are not hypoallergenic dogs. This is due to their thick, long coats which tend to hold more allergens and dander than a more lightweight breed might. However, the breed is known for being very low shedding, which can be beneficial for those with minor allergies to dogs. In addition to their coat, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are gentle and affectionate dogs, making them a great fit for people with minor allergies who want a furry companion.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, like many other dogs, thrive on a diet of a premium, high-quality kibble supplemented with fresh meats, vegetables and fruits. So that healthier options are included in their diet, be sure to opt for grain-free kibble and feed your Cavalier King Charles Spaniel a variety of cooked and raw proteins, healthy fats and complex carbohydrates. Additionally, to meet your pet's daily nutrient requirements and best of all, offer them plenty of hydration from fresh, clean water.
Preparing your home for a new Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is an important step in ensuring your dog gets off to a great start in your home. First, be sure to puppy-proof your home to prevent any injury. Remove any items that can be chewed on or ingested, such as cords and small objects. Consider setting up your home with designated areas to establish training boundaries from the beginning. Secure all windows and access points to outside to prevent digging or escape attempts. Lastly, purchase items you'll need for your new pet such as a bed, toys, food bowl and collar.
The size of your Cavalier King Charles Spaniel puppy will depend on a few factors, including its sex, age, and nutrition. Generally, females weigh between 12-18 pounds and grow to be 11-13 inches tall, while males fall between 13-18 pounds and reach up to 12-13 inches in height. It's important to note that these sizes are mere estimates, as puppies can vary in size depending on their individual growth rate. Nevertheless, over time your puppy will likely fill out, reaching its full and proper size by the time it's 1-2 years old.
Generally speaking, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels require 30-60 minutes of exercise per day, depending on their age and activity level. To keep your pup healthy and fit, aim to walk your pup for at least 30 minutes every day. Of course, if your pup needs more activity, it's perfectly fine to offer them more frequent, shorter walks, or even more strenuous exercises such as fetching and swimming. Additionally, providing mental stimulation through puzzles, playtime, and socializing activities can help your Spaniel stay active and alert.
