Questions & Answers
A Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is a small-sized, friendly, and social breed of dog.

Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are technically not considered to be non-shedding dogs, but they do have a reputation for being low shedding. Some owners will report that their Cavalier shedded very little, while others report more regular shedding. Because the amount of hair shed is typically minimal, daily brushing and combing are recommended which will help to minimize the amount of excess shedding. Taking a Cavalier for regular baths and hair trims may also be beneficial in controlling the amount of shedding and in aiding the appearance of the coat.
It's important to feed your Cavalier King Charles Spaniel a well-balanced, nutritious diet. This includes making sure that your pup gets plenty of quality proteins and carbohydrates, along with omega fatty acids, vitamins and minerals. It's best to stick to commercially produced food or home-cooked meals specifically tailored for a Cavalier, such as ground meat and fresh veggies. Make sure each meal contains a proper balance of fresh and frozen ingredients, while avoiding foods with artificial preservatives, additives, and sodium. Smaller meals throughout the day help to ensure a healthy metabolism and reduce bloating and gas.
