Questions & Answers
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are a small breed of spaniel originating in England. They are most commonly known for their soft, silky fur, keen sense of smell, and long floppy ears. They are loyal, gentle, and affectionate, making them an excellent choice for families with children. One thing to keep in mind about Cavalier King Charles Spaniels is that they need lots of exercise and love to be part of family activities. When properly trained, they can fit right into a social lifestyle and make excellent companions.
The Cavalier King Charles Spaniel has a long, silky coat with a smooth, glossy finish that comes in four colors: Blenheim (a chestnut-red and white combination), Ruby (a solid ruby or mahogany red), Black & Tan (a black and deep tan combo) and Tri-color (black, tan, and white). The shoulder area and underparts of the dog are often lighter than other areas. The tail and legs have feathering, fur that is a little longer and fluffier than the body fur.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels require a diet made up of specialized nutrition and compatible with the needs of a toy breed and therefore it is important to avoid feeding them certain foods. Table scraps, human food, and especially processed goodies such as chips and candy should be off limits as they are not nutritionally appropriate for the breed and can cause digestive issues and obesity. Bones, both cooked and uncooked, can also be dangerous for Cavaliers as they can cause obstructions and pose a choking hazard.
The best way to become a great puppy parent for your Cavalier King Charles is to provide them with love and attention, as well as consistent and positive reinforcement. Set up a daily schedule for walks, physical and mental stimulation, and training. Additionally, it is important to feed your Cavalier King Charles a well-balanced, nutritional diet and be pro-active with preventative vet care, such as vaccinations and regular check-ups. Keeping your puppy's environment safe and secure is also vital.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are not generally considered "big" dogs. They are a small breed, typically ranging in height from 12-13 inches tall and weighing 13-20 pounds. However, they inhabit a medium-sized frame that gives them an incredibly regal and elegant look. Most people think that they are a larger breed due to this appearance, despite their relatively small size. They are highly affectionate and loving companions that are great for people of all ages and lifestyles.
Generally speaking, exercising a Cavalier King Charles with aerobic activities like running is not recommended due to its small, compact body. While many pet owners choose to take their smaller breed of dogs for a casual walk, these types of dogs often struggle to keep up with higher impact activities like running. It is important to keep in mind that forcing a Cavalier King Charles to participate in running activities can be hazardous and it is best to stick to low-impact activities like leisurely walks. To keep them healthy and happy, an appropriate and supervised amount of playtime is recommended.
Cavalier King Charles are generally known as loving, social dogs that typically get along well with other household pets. While their friendly nature can sometimes cause them to be overly enthusiastic when interacting with smaller pets, socialization while they’re young can go a long way in teaching them to be relaxed and submissive. When introduced to other animals that they’re familiar with, Cavalier King Charles tend to be respectful and tolerant. With proper guidance and training, these dogs can be wonderful members of a multi-pet household.
