Questions & Answers
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels have a long history, with the breed originating over 400 years ago in England. The breed was popularized by King Charles II who enjoyed their cheerful demeanor. Another interesting fun fact is that Cavaliers have a lifespan that is typically longer than most other dog breeds, aging up to 14 years or more. These dogs have been known to be very friendly and patient with children, and make for great family companions. Additionally, the breed is also known to be alert and have excellent hearing, often serving as a watchdog for families.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels have a very low dander, which is the primary cause of allergies, so they are more likely than other breeds to cause fewer allergic reactions. However, every dog is different and some people may still have a reaction. It is generally suggested that someone who is highly allergic to dogs should avoid owning a Cavalier King Charles, regardless of the low dander, as there is still the chance of experiencing an allergic reaction.
For Cavaliers King Charles Spaniels, the best dog food is one that is designed for small breeds and contains a higher ratio of protein and fat to carbohydrates. Higher-quality food, in general, will also have fewer fillers and artificial ingredients. Look for foods that are formulated specifically for the needs of small breed dogs and are free of ingredients like artificial colors, flavors, and preservatives. Additionally, look for dog foods that have higher-quality proteins like real chicken or salmon, as well as sources of healthy fat such as flaxseed, fish oil, and coconut oil.
Before getting a Cavalier King Charles, it is essential to have the necessary items they will need. These include a collar and leash, food and water dishes, food for the specific breed, dog bed or dog padding for comfort and warmth, grooming supplies such as brushes, nail trimmers and toothbrushes, toys and treats for play and training, and dedicated time for play and exercise. Additionally, it is essential to make sure the necessary safety precautions are in place, such as secure fencing for outdoor areas and puppy proofing inside the home.
The size of a Cavalier King Charles varies depending on the gender and lineage, though generally they are considered small dogs. However, while their size is considered 'small', the breed has been known to retain many of the same characteristics of their larger relative, the King Charles Spaniel. Despite their small stature, Cavaliers can have a large feel and presence due to their thick, luxurious coat and loyal personality. While Cavaliers do not fit into the 'big dog' category, they definitely have a royal, majestic presence that can make them feel bigger than they really are.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels have moderate exercise needs that vary depending on age, size, and health. Generally, an hour or two of moderate activity daily, such as a walk or a game of fetch, should be enough to keep them healthy and fit. However, if you have a larger yard or an off-leash area for them to run and play, they may require more exercise.
Yes, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels can get along with the youngest kids. These dogs are social, highly affectionate, and adaptable, making them great family pets. Not only are they good with children, they are also usually patient and gentle with other animals too. This breed does well with moderate exercise and can learn basic commands and tricks easily. Plus, they can get along well in new surroundings with both people and other animals. However, if you have young children, be sure to supervise and provide guidance on appropriate pet etiquette to ensure your Cavalier King Charles remains safe and healthy.
Training your Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is an important step in having a well-behaved pup. To get the best results, it’s important to start early and be consistent in teaching your dog. It’s best to break training down into manageable chunks, focusing on one command at a time. With positive reinforcement such as treats, your puppy will be motivated to learn what is demanded of them. Keep sessions short and always end on a positive note with a reward. When you’re first introducing commands, don’t expect your pup to get it right away.
