Questions & Answers
A Cavalier King Charles is a breed of toy dog that originated in England during the 17th century. It is a small, compact, and well-balanced dog with a friendly, gentle, and sweet-natured temperament. The Cavalier has a noble, graceful, and aristocratic bearing, and is generally classified in the Toy Group by most kennel clubs. The breed averages 13 to 18 pounds (5.9 to 8.2 kg) in weight and 12 to 13 inches (30.5 to 33 cm) in height at the withers.
The Cavalier King Charles Spaniel has an adorable appearance due to their silky, long, and wavy coat. Coat colors vary from Blenheim (a mix of mahogany and white), Tricolor (black/white/tan), Ruby (deep mahogany red), Black and Tan, and also a Blenheim mix that includes tan markings known as "Duo". All these varieties of coat colors have dense and silky fur that is also abundant and fine. The coat does not need to be clipped and requires regular brushing and trimming.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are beautiful dogs that require a balanced and nutrient-rich diet to stay healthy. The best dog food for them is one formulated for small-breed dogs that contains real meat as the primary ingredient. It should also include omega-3 fatty acids, chelated minerals, and probiotics to meet their nutritional needs. The food should be high in proteins to support their active lifestyle and carbohydrates to provide them with enough energy. Avoid foods that contain fillers, artificial dyes, flavors, and preservatives, as these can put their health at risk and cause digestive issues.
Before getting an Cavalier King Charles, you should ensure you have the essentials to provide a comfortable and safe environment. Purchase food suitable for a small breed, along with food and water bowls and appropriate treats. Ensure your house is puppy-proof by hiding cables and dangerous objects, investing in puppy pads or puppy playpen so they can have a safe spot to explore. You'll also need grooming tools such as a brush, nail clippers, toothbrush and chew toys. Finally, it's a good idea to have a pet first aid kit on hand.
