Questions & Answers
One of the most interesting things about the Cavalier King Charles is that they are one of the oldest of all the toy breeds. This breed has been in existence for more than 300 years and is one of the few breeds that has not changed greatly in appearance since it was first developed. The breed's look is often described as regal, with their long flowing coats, gentle eyes and typically wagging tails. Not only do they have a distinctive appearance, they are also known for being extremely loyal and affectionate companions, making them an excellent family pet.
The Cavalier King Charles Spaniel has a distinctive coat. It is medium-long and silky in texture, with feathering on the ears, chest, legs, feet, and tail. Generally, the coat is quite flat, and the colors vary; they can be white with black, white with tan, black and tan, tricolor, and ruby. The coat may require occasional brushing in order to keep it healthy and tangle-free. However, these dogs don't need a professional clipping or trimming just regular brushing and combing.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels do generally have special dietary needs. While their diets should include high-quality proteins and fats, it's important to ensure that their diet is well balanced and includes appropriate levels of vitamins and minerals. Many Cavaliers also require a higher calorie intake than other dog breeds because of their active lifestyle. However, it is important to speak with a veterinarian to determine the individual caloric needs for your Cavalier as all dogs have different dietary preferences and may require extra supplements to meet particular health needs.
Before bringing your new Cavalier King Charles home, it is important to ensure your home is properly prepared to welcome your new pup. Start by puppy-proofing the house cover cords, block off staircases, and keep delicate items out of reach. Make sure every room your puppy will access has enough safe, chewable toys to occupy them (but be sure to rotate toys regularly). Provide a comfortable, quiet spot for rest, such as a pet bed, blanket, or cushion with toys.
Generally speaking, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are considered a small dog breed. Cavaliers typically weigh between 8 and 18 pounds, with an overall length that could range between 12 and 13 inches, estimating the average size of the breed and perhaps making them the smallest of the Toy breeds group. This type of breed is known for having a beautiful sweet nature, an incredibly gentle character, and an insatiable love for humans. They typically have an elegant and regal demeanor and full manes of silky curls.
Yes, you can take your Cavalier King Charles running, however it is important to remember that these dogs are not as strong as some of the larger breeds. If you take them running, it is important to pay attention to the temperature and your pace so as not to tire them out or put them in danger. Start by taking your Cavalier King Charles on shorter runs, and gradually increase the length and speed of the run over time. Your dog should be feeling strong and not strain during the run.
Absolutely! Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are loving, gentle, and loyal companions making them an ideal choice for first-time owners. Despite their small size, they normally have a lot of energy and need plenty of love and care to keep them happy. A daily walk and plenty of playtime is great for these active little pups. They are also quite intelligent and respond easily to basic commands making them great for people who are just starting out with dog ownership.
The amount of minutes per day you should train your Cavalier King Charles largely depends on the individual's age and activity level. Generally speaking, puppies should have about 15 minutes of training per day, and they should be given time to play as well as just socialize and adapt to new environments. Adult Cavaliers should have at least 30 minutes of dedicated training time per day. For more active breeds, the amount of training can be increased up to 45 minutes a day. The key is to interact with your pet in a positive way and not to overtrain.
