Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is a breed that is known for its low-shedding coat. They are not considered to be a completely hypoallergenic breed, but they do not shed at the same level as other breeds. Their coat does require regular brushing and limited bathing, however, in order to remain healthy.

Yes, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels typically have special dietary needs in comparison to other purebred dogs. Pet owners must ensure that their four-legged friends get the correct nutrition from the right type of food. Generally, these dogs need high quality kibble that is specially formulated for small breeds. It should be rich in protein and vitamins and should have added sources of fatty acids, such as fish oil, which will help to reduce inflammation and keep their coat looking healthy.

As a companion dog, they should also have regular exercise especially as they mature and ample socialization, as this breed typically loves human interaction. Their diet should also be monitored, as they can put on weight easily and sometimes suffer from allergies. In addition, Cavalier King Charles should receive regular veterinary check-ups, as dehydration and heart problems are two common issues with this breed.

They tend to be slightly longer than they are tall, giving them an elegant, yet compact, look.

The amount of time you should walk your Cavalier King Charles on a daily basis depends on several factors, such as your pup's age and current level of fitness. Generally speaking, puppies need around 10 minutes of walking a day. However, adults may need more. A good rule of thumb is to aim for about 30 minutes per day, but up to an hour is ideal for adult dogs. Be sure to increase walking slowly – especially when your pup is a puppy – as going too fast can cause serious joint issues.
Generally speaking, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are excellent with children, as they tend to be gentle and affectionate by nature. They are excellent companions, provided they have been socialized during the puppy stage. As with any breed, the amount of ease and comfort with children that any individual dog might have is determined by how they have been raised and trained. If socialized properly with children, Cavaliers are very tolerant and patient and are certain to bring joy and companionship to any family.

Generally, 15-20 minutes per day of structured activities that include behaviors like leash walking, recalls, and commands is recommended. Further training time should then be allotted for varied activities like agility, obedience, and socialization. Additionally, it's important to spend plenty of unstructured time with your canine best friend as this allows them to bond with their owner, build trust, and practice good behaviors.
