Questions & Answers
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are incredibly affectionate, friendly and loyal. They're one of the most popular breeds of dog in America. A truly iconic breed, they have a long history. They originated as small lap dogs for European royal houses and have been adored by royalty and plebeians for more than 400 years. They're not the most active of dogs, but they are surprisingly well suited for agility. They're also a great family pet, as they don't shed much and are generally docile. They are also known for their long, silky coats.
It's possible that a Cavalier King Charles could cause allergies, however, it's not a guarantee. Most allergies are caused by the dander, saliva, and urine of a pet, and a Cavalier King Charles does not produce any more or any less of these than any other breed. If you're allergic to pets, it's highly recommended that you speak to your doctor before making a commitment to adopt one, as there are other breeds which may be better suited to your allergies.
The Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is a small breed of dog known for its lively and cheerful personality. This breed has a special diet that must include healthy, nutrient-rich food such as lean proteins, whole grains, and vegetables. High-quality kibble tailored to their specific size and energy requirements is a great option for the breed. In addition, small amounts of human-grade wet food, such as canned fish or meat, can be given as a supplemental food once or twice per week.
If you're getting a Cavalier King Charles for your home, there are a few things you should do to prepare for its arrival. First, you'll want to puppy-proof your home by clearing away any small items your pet can swallow or injure itself with, putting away any hazardous cleaning supplies, and moving any and all cords, wires, or electrical devices that could be chewed on. Next, secure your home by checking your fencing or any gates in your yard to make sure your pet can't escape and won't get hurt.
The size of your Cavalier King Charles puppy can vary depending on the puppy's ancestry and gender, but on average they grow to be anywhere from 12 to 13 inches tall and typically weigh between 13 and 18 pounds. Of course, every pup is unique, and some can be slightly larger. You can ask the breeder for more information about your puppy's potential size, or do some research on your pup's parents and their size to get a better idea.
The amount of walking that your Cavalier King Charles requires depends on their age, physical condition, and other factors. As a general rule, your pup should get at least 45 minutes to an hour of physical activity each day. A good rule of thumb when walking your Cavalier King Charles is to break it up into two to three sessions of 15 to 20 minutes each. This will give your pet the exercise it needs while also ensuring that it's not too exhausting.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels can make excellent pets for first-time owners. As a friendly, companionable breed, they are highly social and loving when given proper training and attention. They are relatively low energy and relatively easy to house train, making them an ideal addition to a first-time owner's family. As with all breeds, consistent and positive interaction with humans and other pets, combined with the proper amount of exercise and nutrition, will help to create a bond between owner and pet.
Training a Cavalier King Charles is a rewarding experience, though it may require a bit of patience. Every dog is different, of course, and some may require more or less intensive training and different approaches. Dedicating time to a consistent plan and setting boundaries early will result in a well-mannered and happy pup. Positive reinforcement in the form of treats and praise can be very helpful, as will breaking down commands into bitesize pieces that are easy for the pup to understand.
