Cavalier King Charles Spaniels come in two sizes: toy and full-size. The toy size is smaller, typically weighing between 8 and 12 pounds as adults. The full size averages between 13 and 18 pounds as adults. There may be breeders who breed for even larger dogs, but these are not considered standards for the breed. Keep in mind that even with the two sizes, each dog is an individual, so even two dogs of the same size may be different sizes depending on their parentage.
A Cavalier King Charles should do at least 30 minutes of moderate physical exercise per day. Depending on your pup's energy level, walking can be a great way to help them stay healthy and fit. Generally, two 15-minute brisk walks are sufficient but you may want to give your pup a little more exercise by splitting the walks into shorter (5 10 minute) spurts throughout the day, or even taking them for a jog if your pup is more active.
