Questions & Answers
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are a very loyal and loving companion, who are also perfect for being around children. These dogs are outgoing and friendly, but also docile and non-aggressive. They get along well with other animals, but can be prone to barking if not trained properly. They have a moderate amount of exercise needs, however they can tire quickly, so a walk once a day is generally recommended. Grooming needs are also moderate, and they should be brushed and cared for frequently.
Contrary to popular belief, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are not hypoallergenic. They shed year round, and have a moderate to heavy shedding coat. While there are some allergy-friendly breeds like the poodle, bichon frise, and shih tzu, the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is not one of them. However, they make fantastic family pets and have an undeniable charm that is sure to win the hearts of those looking for an energetic, good-natured companion.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, like other breeds, can have specific dietary needs depending on their age, activity level, and overall health. Generally, these dogs need a diet that contains high quality protein and carbohydrates to keep them healthy and active. Healthy fats, fruits, and vegetables should also be included to provide essential vitamins and minerals. A balanced diet of wet or canned food, as well as a specially formulated dry food, can ensure they receive adequate nutrition. Some Cavalier King Charles Spaniels may require additional dietary supplements. Consult your veterinarian to determine the correct diet for your pup.
Preparing for a new Cavalier King Charles Spaniel can seem overwhelming at first, but it doesn't have to be! To get properly prepared for your new pup, first consider purchasing the necessary items such as a food and water bowl, a collar, a leash, and proper pet identification. Next, plan to take your pup to the vet once you adopt them to make sure they are in the best of health.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels typically have a height range of 12 to 13 inches and a weight range of about 13 to 18 pounds, though some can exceed 18 pounds. They generally have a long, silky coat and usually come in shades of black and tan, tricolor (black, white, and tan), and ruby or blenheim (red and white). The breed is considered a medium-sized spaniel, making them a good-sized companion who won't take up too much space in the home.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels need a moderate amount of exercise to stay healthy, happy, and fit. Daily walks and active play are essential for these dogs. They are well-suited for apartment living, but still need regular opportunities for daily physical activity. Approximately 30 minutes of exercise each day is typically recommended for this breed. Letting your Cavalier explore and sniff during your walk also offers mental stimulation as well. Trying out interactive toys, such as puzzles and balls, can also provide needed exercise and mental stimulation.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are friendly, gentle, and loving companions that make wonderful family dogs. They get along well with children, seniors, and other pets, and enjoy having plenty of attention from people. Cavaliers can be quite adaptable and are able to keep up with the daily routines of a family. Their small size makes them easy to housebreak, and they don't need a large yard for exercise. Although they can become quite attached to their people, their naturally gentle disposition makes them quite tolerant of handling.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are considered to be a very smart breed of dog. Their intelligence is based on their ability to learn very quickly, remember commands and retrieve items. They are generally eager to please and are sensitive to their owners' commands, making them surprisingly adept learners. Additionally, socializing them from a young age can help them become confident and trusting of their owners. They also have an excellent memory, so training them can often be quite easy. All in all, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are an intelligent breed for many different reasons.
