Managing allergies with Cavalier King Charles dogs should involve creating a low-allergen environment. You should vacuum regularly, avoid carpets, and regularly groom and brush your dog to remove excess fur and dander.

Therefore, owners should aim to provide their dog a diet with whole-food ingredients that are free of additives and fillers. Some of the items that should not be fed to this breed are onions and garlic, as they can cause anemia and create additional health problems. Chocolate is also toxic and should never be given to any kind of canine.
Yes, Cavalier King Charles have some special requirements. As a small breed with a long coat, they need plenty of daily exercise, regular brushing and combing to keep their coat in top condition. They will need to visit the vet at least once a year for a check-up and vaccinations. They may also need additional routine vaccinations depending on where you live and activities that your pet is undertaking. In addition, Cavalier King Charles can be prone to certain genetic conditions, so regular health checkups with your vet are highly recommended.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels (Cavaliers) are considered moderate in size, typically between 12-13 inches tall at the shoulder and weighing up to 18 pounds. That being said, they are not the smallest of dogs, so although they can be accommodated in smaller spaces, they don't fit into the 'toy' size range. In comparison to other small breeds, Cavaliers are a bit larger and many would classify them as 'big' for small dogs. But, given their overall moderate size, they would not be considered 'big' in comparison to many other dog breeds.
Yes, you can take your Cavalier King Charles running depending on the age of your dog. Young puppies should not be taken running; however, once your Cavalier King Charles is fully grown, he or she should be okay to go on light runs. When taking your dog running, it is very important to be aware of the temperature outside. It is not safe for any dog to run during extreme weather conditions, like when it is very hot or very cold. Therefore, it is best to be mindful of the temperature and your dog's reaction to running.
Cavalier King Charles' can make great, loyal companions for first-time owners. They are an adaptable breed, friendlier towards children and adults than some other breeds, with excellent intelligence that can be tapped into through training and commands. For apartment-living, the breed does not need much exercise and does not occupy much room, making them great choices for those who have limited living or outdoor space.
To successfully train a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, the amount of minutes dedicated to training each day can vary greatly depending on the individual dog. The breed itself is known to be naturally obedient and trainable; however, consistent and dedicated training is key for successful results. Generally, working with your Cavalier King Charles for at least 15 minutes per day is important for reinforcing desired behaviors and socializing. When you have more time, it's best to break the daily sessions into smaller segments so that your pet stays focused and can more easily retain what they've learned.
