Questions & Answers
The Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is a toy breed of dog known for its gentle and friendly temperament. Often described as having a regal bearing, the Cavalier King Charles stands between 12 and 13 inches tall and weighs between 13 and 18 pounds. Their glossy coat comes in four colors: Blenheim (chestnut and white), Black and Tan, Tricolor (black, white and tan) and Ruby, and the distinctive feathering on their legs and ears adds a unique charm to successive generations of puppies.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are generally known for being low-shedding and hypoallergenic dogs. While their coats produce some amount of shedding, it's far less than that of many other breeds. Their coats require regular brushing to remove any dead or loose hair and prevent matting, but typically regrow quickly, making them a good choice for those looking for a low-maintenance breed.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, like all dogs, should not be fed chocolate, raisins, grapes, avocados, or any type of processed food. Their sensitive digestive systems are not able to process food with large amounts of sugar, salt, or fat. They may also become ill from consuming anything with caffeine, onions, and garlic. Additionally, foods that may contain artificial sweeteners, including sugar-free candy, gum, and baked goods, may be toxic.
Before getting a Cavalier King Charles, it's important to acquire some essentials to ensure the dog is safe, comfortable, and happy. A soft bed dedicated to the dog, a set of food and treats, leashes and collars, bowls, grooming supplies, toys, and a crate are all essential items for any pet owner. It's also useful to invest in some pet insurance in case of any unexpected emergency and advice from a vet to ensure the dog is living a healthy lifestyle.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniel dogs are often considered to be reasonably sized, which generally falls in between small and large. Depending on their weight and full grown size, which averages around 13-18 pounds and 12-13 inches tall, they are considered to be a medium-sized breed. They possess a grace and dignified look about them that can make them look larger than they are, but these pups are usually considered to be a perfect companion size and suitable for almost any living arrangement.
Absolutely! Taking your Cavalier King Charles on runs offers a great way for the two of you to bond while providing the mental and physical stimulation they need. While keeping your pup safe should always be a priority, the breed is known for being an active and energetic one. Ensure that you bring plenty of water for them to drink along the way and plan for short rest periods to make sure they don't overdo it. Pay attention to your Cavalier's stamina and energy levels during the run and respond accordingly.
Generally, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are very easy-going and sociable dogs. Although there is no guarantee your Cavalier will get along with every other pet in your family, with proper socialization and training, they tend to get along with other animals and can even become good friends. They usually have a strong bond with their owners, but are friendly to strangers as well. It is important to introduce your Cavalier slowly and carefully to other pets and monitor their interactions to ensure all household animals remain safe and comfortable with each other.
Training your Cavalier King Charles should be a fun and rewarding experience! Like all dogs, Cavaliers benefit from consistent, positive reinforcement training. Start by teaching basic commands such as sit, stay, come and down. Be sure to reward your dog for good behavior. Remember, positive reinforcement should always be used when teaching. Training sessions should be kept relatively short and you should always end the session while your pet is still having a good time. Other activities you can do with your Cavalier include agility training and teaching them how to recognize and follow hand signals.
