Questions & Answers
A Cavalier King Charles is a small, affectionate dog breed with a regal, noble look that is often chosen as a beloved pet. Originating from the United Kingdom, this breed has a warm and loving personality, and is known to be quite intuitive. They are intelligent and are often easily trained, particularly when it comes to housebreaking and basic commands.
The Cavalier King Charles Spaniel coat is typically medium length and silky in texture. They have a slightly wavy feathering on the ears, legs, chest and tail that give the breed its distinctive look. The fur is also generally dense and smooth in texture, and colors such as Blenheim, Tri-Color and Ruby are common. A Cavalier's coat should be kept well-groomed to ensure good health for the dog and optimal appearance for the discerning owner.
Cavaliers are a popular breed of dog that require high quality nutrition for their energy and activity levels. The best dog food for Cavaliers is one that is rich in protein and low in carbohydrates. It should contain all the necessary vitamins and minerals to keep your Cavalier in the best of health. It should be specifically formulated for small breed dogs and preferably include glucosamine and omega-3 fatty acids. Look for a dog food that has an adequate amount of real, recognizable meat as the first ingredient and minimal fillers like corn, wheat or soy.
Before getting a Cavalier King Charles, it is important to stock up on all the essentials they may need. This includes a high-quality food for your pup, a comfortable and properly-sized bed, a variety of toys that both stimulate their minds and give them the opportunity to burn off energy, a crate with a liner to enable a safe place to rest, doggy waste bags, grooming supplies such as nail clippers and a toothbrush, and a collar or harness.
It really varies based on the specific puppy you get. Generally speaking, full-grown Cavalier King Charles Spaniel adults range from 12 to 13 inches tall at the shoulder and may weight between 13 and 18 pounds. As a puppy, though, you can expect its size to grow until it reaches about one year of age. At that age, most of the growth is complete and you will be able to get a good indication for what the adult size will be. Keep in mind that the exact size of your puppy may vary depending on the particular breed and even the exact pedigree.
The amount of exercise that is best for your Cavalier King Charles will depend on a few factors, such as their age, overall health and physical abilities. Generally, an adult Cavalier King Charles should get at least 60 minutes of exercise each day, and puppies should get at least 30 minutes. During these windows of daily exercise, it is ideal that at least some of the time is spent walking. This could range from 30 minutes for very young or elderly puppers up to 60 minutes or more for healthy and active dogs.
Absolutely! Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are some of the most good-natured and great-tempered small dog breeds. They get along incredibly well with children, playing with them and loving the extra attention they're given. These gentle and loving dogs love spending time with people, especially when they receive lots of love, belly rubs, and pats. On top of that, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are gentle enough that they won't accidentally hurt a child, meaning they can be handled without fear.
Training your Cavalier King Charles should begin as soon as possible so they can learn the basics such as how to obey commands and basic etiquette. Start by teaching basic commands such as sit, stay, come, and leave it. Also, it can be helpful to use positive reinforcement whenever they do the right thing. Reward them with verbal praise, treats, and love. Socialization with other animals and people is also vital for them to become well-adjusted. Some other important tips include having a consistent routine, not over exercising them, and providing plenty of mental stimulation through interactive toys.
