Questions & Answers
A Cavalier King Charles is a small breed of toy spaniel. The breed originated in England during the reign of King Charles II, hence the breed's name. The Cavalier King Charles is characterized by its silky, medium-length coat, large ears, and "melting" eyes. Its coat colors include ruby (a chestnut red), blenheim (chestnut and white) and tricolor (black, white, and tan). The breed is also known for its friendly, devoted nature, as well as its resilience and athletic temperament.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels have a moderate to low hypoallergenic rating. Although there is no guarantee that a Cavalier King Charles will not cause an allergic reaction due to their shedding, they are generally considered to be a good choice for people with mild allergies. As an owner, it is important to be aware of the risks and monitor any reactions that a person may experience when interacting with the pet. Grooming should be done regularly to reduce airborne allergens and it may be necessary to vacuum and dust more frequently.
It is important to ensure that you do not feed Cavalier King Charles Spaniels human foods that contain ingredients that can be potentially dangerous for them or items that are not suitable for them. It is recommended that you avoid feeding them any dairy products, chocolate, grapes, raisins, currants, onions, garlic, chives, anything with caffeine, sugary or high-salt foods, and fatty foods as they can be harmful to their health. You should also be cautious with bones, as they can splinter and cause internal damage.
Before getting a Cavalier King Charles, you should make sure you have the proper essentials. A few of the most important items include a bed or crate, collar and leash, toys, bowls, food, and regular vet visits. You should also make sure you have adequate supplies on hand for grooming, nail trimming, teeth brushing, and ear cleaning. Additionally, make sure your house is safe for a Cavalier King Charles, as they are curious and need to be kept away from items that may harm them.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels (CKCS) are generally considered to be a small breed of dog. Depending on the metric used, they have a minimum shoulder height of 12-13 inches (30-33cm), and a max weight of 18-19 pounds (8-9kg). This makes them a middle-ground breed between very small companion dogs and larger breeds. CKCS have a pleasant demeanor and are easy to care for, making them well-suited to first-time dog owners, families, and retired individuals alike.
Yes, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels enjoy swimming though some may take time to build confidence in the water. Many owners use special equipment such as pool steps or a pool ramp to make it easier for the dog to get in and out. With the right amount of patient guidance and practice, all Cavaliers can learn to love the water. These dogs have a strong breed heritage to swim and take well to the activity once they are comfortable with the water. Depending on the individual, some Cavaliers may enjoy swimming in a pool, a lake, or even a river.
Generally, Cavalier King Charles Spaniel dogs tend to get along well with other pets in the home, especially if they are introduced from a young age and have had the chance to properly socialize. They are active and playful, so they thrive when given the opportunity to play and interact with other dogs and animals. As long as all of the pets in the house are properly cared for and encouraged to interact in healthy ways, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels should be able to enjoy being around other animals.
Training a Cavalier King Charles is a bit more involved than with many other breeds, due to their social, independent nature. That said, it is possible to train a Cavalier King Charles if you are willing to invest the time and resources needed. First and foremost, set firm rules around behavior from the beginning, and be consistent about enforcing those rules. Teaching your dog commands such as 'sit,' 'stay,' 'come,' and 'heel' is a good foundational start. Consider positive reinforcement like food rewards and verbal praise for correct behavior, and avoid punishment or negative reinforcement.
