Cavaliers King Charles Spaniels are pleasing pups that have been known for their good-natured attitude, affinity for cuddles, and loving disposition. However, many wonder if these dogs are non-shedding. The truth is that all breeds of dogs shed to varying degrees. While Cavaliers do have a silky and beautiful coat, it may tend to shed more than other breeds. Cavalier owners can reduce the amount of fur that their pet produces by providing a healthy and balanced diet, grooming regularly, and brushing their dog's coat at least on a weekly basis.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are known to be big foodies and love the taste of most food. As a small breed, they require high-quality food that's specifically designed for dogs of their size. The diet of a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel should typically include a combination of wet and dry kibble to ensure they get all of the nutrients they need. A high-quality dry kibble with lean meat and complex carbohydrates like oats, barley and potatoes is important for Cavalier King Charles Spaniels since they are prone to being overweight due to their smaller body size.
Becoming the best puppy parent while waiting for your Cavalier King Charles Spaniel starts with doing your homework! Do research and read up on the breed so you can better understand the physical, mental and activity needs of the pup. Talk with trusted and experienced breeders and pet owners to learn more and make sure you're committed to providing the Cavalier with a loving and healthy home environment. It's also important to create a routine so that your pup can easily adjust to regular daily activities, such as going for walks and playing games.
Generally speaking, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels reach a height of about 12-13 inches and a weight of between 13-19 pounds when fully grown.

They are considered to be on the smaller size compared to other breeds of dogs. Additionally, since they have long, silky coats, their actual size may seem bigger than it is.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are an active breed and need daily exercise to stay healthy and happy. While the exact amount of exercise varies from pup to pup, on average this breed should get about an hour of exercise each day. This could include a combination of structured activities such as walking, playing fetch, agility training, and other interactive activities as well as some unstructured activities such as running around in the backyard. Ideally, owners should also provide 15-20 minutes of mental stimulation in the form of puzzles, training, and other interactive games.
Absolutely! Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are excellent dogs for families due to their gentle, loving and friendly temperaments. They are very tolerant with children, as well as other animals, and so make a great addition to any household.

The breed is known to be very gentle and intelligent, so they’re relatively easy to train. Additionally, they love to be with their owners and play games, so they keep your family engaged.
Training your Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is a relatively simple task! Start by socializing your new pup.

Start in a quiet area, use treats as a reward for good behavior, and most importantly, be patient and consistent in your training. As your pup gets more comfortable with commands, you can move to an outside location with more distractions.
