Questions & Answers
Cavalier King Charles Spaniel dogs are one of the oldest known breeds of small spaniel-type dogs. Although they were originally bred in the 1600s, their exact origin remains unknown. Fun facts about Cavalier King Charles include their devotion to their owners, remarkable intelligence, and their love of snuggling. Although still considered a toy breed, they are active, athletic, and eager to please. One of the unique characteristics of the breed is the natural and gentle expression of their large, round eyes.
The Cavalier King Charles is a small, gentle breed, with a lovely, tousled, silky coat. The breed is a mix of four distinct colors: Blenheim, which is a mixture of reddish-brown and white; Ruby, which is rich red-brown; Black and Tan, which is black with tan markings; and King Charles, also known as Tricolor, which is a combination of black, tan, and white.
Yes, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels have special dietary needs due to their genetic makeup. Their diet should typically include quality, highly digestible ingredients that contain minerals and vitamins specifically formulated for the breed. Additionally, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels should be given a nutrient-rich diet with balanced levels of protein, fat, and fiber; while limiting the intake of sodium, phosphorus, and other potentially dangerous chemicals. Ideally, an expense should be taken to monitor their food intake for optimal growth and health, as they are prone to weight gain.
Preparation is key to ensuring a smooth transition for you and your Cavalier King Charles. First, make sure the physical space you are providing for your pet is ready: put out supplies like food, water, bedding, a collar and leash, and toys. Additionally, be sure to research or discuss with a vet about proper nutrition and health care for your pet. Spending time familiarizing yourself with dog-friendly activities, such as walks and interactive play, can help ensure your bond is strong and can give you common activities to enjoy together.
A Cavalier King Charles puppy will likely grow to be between 12 and 13 inches tall when fully grown, and can weigh anywhere from 13 to 18 pounds. Keep in mind that the size and weight of any puppy can be influenced by many factors including its gender, diet, exercise and genetics. It is difficult to predict the exact size your puppy may be as an adult, however you can rest assured that it will most likely be within the breed's average size range.
Cavalier King Charles spaniels usually need at least 30 minutes of physical activity every day, including walks. How many minutes you should walk your dog will largely depend on your dog's age, health, and activity level. Generally speaking, for adult Cavalier King Charles spaniels, a walk of between 30 and 60 minutes per day should be sufficient. Puppies will need shorter, more frequent walks, since they tend to tire more easily. If your dog is particularly active, then you may need to extend your walks beyond 60 minutes.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are usually very friendly and get along with other pets, provided they are properly socialized when they are young. They also tend to be quite social and do well when kept in a multi-pet household. Proper introduction of the pets is important, and introducing the other pets slowly can help to ensure that there is not too much excitement for the Cavalier King Charles. Furthermore, having a routine and introducing positive reinforcement can also help in developing a healthy relationship with the other pets.
Training a Cavalier King Charles is relatively easy, however diligence and consistency are key. The breed is very eager to please and learns basic commands quickly. To set your pup up for success, start with your puppy basics such as proper crate training. From there, you can move to basic commands such as sit and down. Incorporate lots of positive reinforcement and rewards in tandem with consistent repetition of the desired behavior. Additionally, keeping a Cavalier King Charles socially engaged will help shape desirable behaviors.
