Questions & Answers
A Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is a smallto medium-sized dog breed that is characterized by its long, silky coat and large, rounded eyes. They have a gentle and friendly disposition and make great companions for children or adults. The average lifespan for a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is between nine and fourteen years, and they are generally healthy and relatively low maintenance when cared for properly. They do require regular brushing and grooming, however, as they have long hair. Additionally, they need proper socialization, as they are known to be sensitive to loud noises and stressful situations.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are classified as a low shedding breed, however they are not completely non-shedding. While they may still shed a small amount, it is much less than most other breeds. Unlike non-shedding breeds, such as the poodle or poodle mix, the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel will not require frequent trips to the groomer to maintain its appearance. Grooming should be done on a regular basis to help control big shedding bouts, and to keep their fur soft and smooth.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are typically very healthy dogs that require balanced nutrition to stay in peak condition. You should look for food specifically designed for small/medium-sized breeds, avoiding any food that contains corn or wheat. Look for options that contain quality proteins, essential vitamins and minerals, and good fats like Omega-3 fatty acids. It's important to choose a food that is tailored to your pup's individual needs, which could mean looking into the senior, large breed, or non-grain based options.
To prepare your home for your new Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, it's important to puppy-proof the area and ensure your pup will be safe and comfortable as they explore their new home. Make sure you remove toxic plants, store hazardous items out of reach, block off access to stairs, and secure any cords or fragiles. Additionally, it's beneficial to have items such as an appropriately sized crate, safe chew toys, a comfortable bed, and a space for them to play.
The size of your Cavalier King Charles Spaniel puppy will depend on their parentage. On average, the breed standard states that the adult weight for a male should range between 13-18 pounds and for a female, 12-17 pounds. However, depending on the genetic traits that were passed down from the parents, puppies can be larger or smaller than this range. When grown, these puppies are typically 11-12 inches in height at the shoulder. It is important to note, however, that puppies often look much larger than their mature size when they are young.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels need a moderate amount of exercise roughly 15 to 20 minutes of daily physical activity, such as going on walks, playing fetch, or engaging in interactive playtime. Additionally, they should receive an additional 20-30 minutes of exercise per day, preferably in an fenced off area where they can run around and expend some energy. Generally, they should be walked every day, but it is also important to engage them mentally with toys and puzzle games. Longer walks or hikes should be taken a couple of times per week to keep your pup in physical shape.
Absolutely! Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are renowned for being one of the best family dogs. They exhibit a loving, gentle demeanor with all members of the family and will create a strong bond with each. Not only are they highly affectionate, but these dogs have a moderate energy level, making them enjoyable companions for households of all sizes and activity levels. Their cheerful and loyal personalities also make them great playmates for children and help to keep everyone entertained. As a bonus, Cavaliers are known for being particularly low-shedding and mild-mannered, making them relatively low maintenance canine friends.
Training a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel can be a rewarding and fun experience. Establish a routine that consists of rewards-based training. Begin with basic commands that all dogs should know such as sit and stay, then progress to advanced commands like coming when called. Be consistent with your expectations and don't allow lapses. Provide positive reinforcements such as treats and verbal praise when your pup obeys. Before teaching any trick, break it into smaller tasks and reward each successful attempt.
