Questions & Answers
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are loving, gentle, and affectionate little lap dogs. They are easily recognizable by their long ears and wavy coat and are considered the quintessential companion dog. They tend to have an endearing expression and a good nature that is highly regarded. Cavaliers thrive with human companionship and generally do not do well if left alone for extended periods of time. They need daily exercising and enjoy participating in activities with their owner. This breed usually gets along well with other animals and children as long as they are handled with patience and kindness.
No, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are not considered hypoallergenic. While these dogs do not shed heavily and produce less dander than some breeds, they are not considered hypoallergenic and may still cause allergies in people who are sensitive to them. Most experts agree that those who suffer from allergies should consider allergy-friendly breeds or male dogs from breeds deemed hypoallergenic by the AKC, such as the Bichon Frise or the Kerry Blue Terrier.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels need a high-quality dry food that is tailored to their age, lifestyle, and size. To ensure they receive the proper nutrition, try to look for food made with real meat, whole grains, and vegetables. Look for a food that is specifically designed for small dog breeds and/or Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. Additionally, make sure to include healthy treats and snacks in your pet's diet that have limited ingredients and added vitamins and minerals. Depending on your pet's needs and preferences, you can consider incorporating wet foods in your pet's routine, too.
Becoming the best puppy parent for a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel involves research, patience, and preparing for your pet's arrival. Start by researching the breed and the specific needs of your future pup. This can help you be prepared for the arrival of your pet and make you knowledgeable in terms of its nutritional and health needs as well as its personality traits. Get the proper gear ahead of time including bowls, crates, toys and a leash. Make sure you set up a special area for your pup and practice positive reinforcement training.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels come in two different sized variations. The two sizes are commonly referred to as the “Toy” or “Tiny” variety and the “Medium” variety. The Toy variety is typically between 8-12 inches at the highest point of the shoulder and the Medium variety is typically between 12-13 inches at the highest point of the shoulder. Adult Cavaliers can weigh anywhere from 10-20 pounds, although some individuals can reach weight of up to 25 pounds.
The amount of time and exercise that a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel needs each day depends on their age, overall health, activity level, and weather. Generally, they should get between 30 minutes to an hour of exercise every day, with at least 30 minutes of brisk walking. Although this recommendation is the same for all breeds, specific breeds may need more or less. To keep a healthy, happy and active lifestyle, it is best to keep the daily walks relatively consistent, aiming for at least half an hour of walking each day for your Cavalier King Charles Spaniel.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are wonderful family dogs! Bred to be companion animals, they are very affectionate, loyal and gentle and make great additions to any home or family. They are naturally friendly and social, meaning they love to spend time around people, and their small size makes them an excellent choice for small households, apartments, and city living. Their even-temperaments mean that, for the most part, they won't experience severe mood swings and will always remain good-natured around children.
Training a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel can be an enjoyable experience for both humans and dogs alike, however it does take patience and consistency to ensure success. Generally, these dogs are easy to train as they are eager to please. They are also very intelligent, making them willing learners. However, as with all dogs, there will be moments during the training process that require more reinforcement and patience. Being consistent with your commands and rewarding them with treats and praise when they are successful will help to ensure your training experience is successful.
