Questions & Answers
The Cavalier King Charles is a toy or lap dog that was developed in the U.K. in the 18th century. It's a small spaniel that measures an average 12-14 inches tall at the shoulders and weighs just 13-18 pounds. It has a silky, medium-length coat that may be one or any combination of four different colors. The Cavalier King Charles is known for its gentle, loyal, and playful personality while remaining resistant to getting over-excited. It enjoys being around people and is easily adaptable to living in an apartment or larger home.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are low-shedding dogs, meaning they don't shed a significant amount of fur, making them ideal for many potential pet owners looking to minimize the amount of fur and allergens in their home. The breed, however, is not considered hypoallergenic as it will still shed some dander and fur. As with any dog, regular grooming and brushing will help keep shedding to a minimum. With regular grooming, Cavaliers are known to be an adaptable breed that will thrive in a variety of home settings.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels should not be fed things like chocolate, avocados, onions, grapes, raisins, macadamia nuts, alcohol, or any form of sugar. These foods can all be very toxic to them, leading to dizziness, dehydration, digestive upset, and in severe cases, even death. Table scraps, raw meats, and raw eggs have been linked to the spreading of bacteria and food-borne illnesses. Instead, Cavaliers should have a healthy balanced diet that consists of high-quality dry dog food.
To ensure your Cavalier King Charles receives the best care possible, it's important to provide lots of exercise, quality nutrition, regular grooming, and plenty of love and companionship. Be sure to feed your pup a diet that is suited to their breed, size, and activity level. Frequent veterinarian visits are also essential for keeping your pup healthy and up to date on vaccinations and preventative care. Additionally, it's important to practice positive training and reward desirable behaviors with treats and verbal praise. Spend quality time playing and interacting with your pup to develop a strong bond.
The size of your Cavalier King Charles puppy can vary considerably. Typically, these spaniel-type dogs grow to be approximately 12 to 13 inches in height, and weigh 12 to 18 pounds when fully grown. However, the size of your puppy may depend on its parentage and genetics, so its size cannot be predicted with absolute certainty. That said, your veterinarian will be able to monitor the growth of your Cavalier King Charles puppy to ensure it is developing properly.
The amount of time you should walk your Cavalier King Charles each day really depends on your pet's age, size, and activity level. Generally, young dogs should have at least 30-60 minutes of exercise everyday to keep their bodies and minds healthy. For an adult, at least an hour of walking is recommended in addition to any other activities they may be involved with. However, if you have an older Cavalier, short walks of 10-15 minutes multiple times a day might work better due to their age and decrease in physical activity.
Generally speaking, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels get along very well with children, as they are known to be sweet-tempered and loving. A Cavalier should never be aggressive or shy around children. Rather, they are known to be great companions to children of all ages. With the right amount of socialization and proper care, a Cavalier should be more than happy to be around children. With their calm and gentle nature, they can make great playmates and loving companions for kids and families alike.
Training a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel depends on the dog's life stage. Puppies benefit from 3-4 short sessions a day totaling 10-15 minutes; while adult dogs may require more time or longer sessions. It is important to provide mental stimulation as well as physical exercise. Mental stimulation can include activities such as hide and seek, obedience practice, games, training, and other activities. Depending on your needs, you should allocate between 30-60 minutes per day to training a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, as they are usually eager to please and learn new things.
