Questions & Answers
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are a breed of toy spaniels whose popularity dates back to the 1600s in Britain. They are an intelligent, affectionate, and loyal breed of dog that make wonderful family companions. Cavaliers are known for needing close companionship and need plenty of attention and exercise. These little dogs have uniquely beautiful coats and come in four recognized colors in the US: ruby, black and tan, blenheim, and tricolor. The average lifespan of a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is about 12-15 years, depending on their health and activity level.
The Cavalier King Charles Spaniel has an eye-catching coat that usually comes in shades of Blenheim (chestnut and white) or ruby red. The breed has a flat and silky coat with a moderate length. The undercoat is soft and should be kept short and conditioned. Fur is evenly distributed throughout and should hang so that the body is covered evenly. The fur should neither be too long nor wiry. The Cavalier King Charles also has a pronounced 'feathering' along with a slight curl on the hindquarters and belly. Its face should have lush hair as well.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are not picky eaters, but what they eat is very important for their health and wellbeing. Quality kibble in small portions and fresh meat is the best diet for a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. They are particularly fond of fresh fruits and vegetables as a treat. While cooked legumes and grains are accepted as part of the diet, they should always be given in moderation. Raw meat is also encouraged as long as it is properly prepared.
Before bringing home your Cavalier King Charles, it's essential to have some basic items to ensure a safe and comfortable transition. Things such as bowls and dishes to hold food and water, a soft bed with comfortable cushioning, appropriate-sized collar and leash for walks, crate and toys for play time, grooming brushes, ear cleaner, and nail clippers are all necessary to keep your pup healthy and happy.
Yes, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are traditionally considered a "toy" breed, and are typically smaller in size and statue. They generally weigh between 10-18 pounds and stand between 12 to 13 inches high. Though they are small in size, they are big on personality and energy. However, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels have a docile and playful nature making them a popular choice for people who want a smaller dog to bring energy and companionship into their home.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels have moderate exercise needs and are well matched to an active family who can provide regular walks, play sessions, and other opportunities to stay active. Generally, thirty minutes of walk or play per day should be sufficient to meet their exercise needs. However, if your pup is especially energetic, they may require longer exercise sessions. To keep them healthy and ward off potential weight gain, it’s important to keep up with your pet’s exercise needs and also ensure they stay within a healthy weight range.
Absolutely! Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are very well-suited to new owners, as they are loyal, highly affectionate, and have a sweet, gentle personality. They are generally good natured and get along well with children, other dogs, and unfamiliar people. Because they are small and not particularly active, they don't need as much exercise as larger breeds and their grooming needs are also fairly minimal.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels (CKCS) are in fact quite intelligent. They can learn a wide array of commands and tricks, and are very eager to please their owners. Their intelligence is such that it can make training relatively easy but they do require regular reinforcement in order to truly master commands. They are also very intuitive, and are often able to pick up on their owners' moods as well as recognize who is a friend and who is not. CKCSs are very sociable and respond very well to positive reinforcement. This makes them an ideal companion for many households.
