Questions & Answers
The Cavalier King Charles is a breed of spaniel originating in the United Kingdom. With their friendly and lively personalities, they make excellent lap dogs, as well as being great companions for people of all ages. They are small in size, with a silky coat of fur that comes in a variety of colors, including Blenheim, Tricolor, Ruby, and Black and Tan. The breed typically exhibits a gentle demeanor and loyalty to their family. It is important to note that the breed's floppy ears may require specific grooming or cleaning to maintain good ear health.
Yes, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are considered to be good non-shedding breeds of dogs. However, some individuals may still produce some shedding, depending on the individual's coat. To reduce shedding, regular grooming is important. Grooming sessions should include regular brushing and clipping. Regularly brushing and combing the coat promotes general health of the coat, removing dead or excess hair while distributing natural oils throughout the coat. Furthermore, regular bathing-no more than once a month-is recommended to reduce shedding, as frequent shampooing can strip the natural oils from the skin and coat.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels mostly enjoy a diet of dry kibble and wet food with fresh ingredients. They also appreciate occasional treats like fruits and vegetables, which are both safe for them to consume. Nutrition specialists recommend high-quality protein sources such as chicken, beef, and fish in their balanced diet. It's also important to give them appropriate amounts of fatty acids like omega-3 and -6, as these promote a healthy coat and joints. In addition to these basics, many experts suggest rotating between a few food kinds to make sure they get all the nutrition they need.
Before getting a Cavalier King Charles, you will want to make sure you have the right supplies and materials on hand. This includes a comfy dog bed, bowls for water and food, collar with ID tags, a leash, toys, and puppy pads. Additionally, you may want to look into purchasing a dog crate and ensuring that your home is "pet-proof" with any electrical cords covered as well as any other hazardous house hold items out of reach. You'll also want to invest in some training materials so you can start teaching your new pet obedience and good behavior.
While there is significant variation among individual Cavaliers, in general, the breed is divided into three size categories: Toy (under 12 lbs.), Miniature (12-15 lbs.), and Standard (15-20 lbs.). Toy and Miniature categories are the smallest of the breed and can fit into your lap. Standard Cavaliers are the largest and usually weigh between 15-20 lbs. Depending on their diet, some dogs may end up larger or smaller than the norm for their size category. Looking at adults can help one to guess at their size but you may want to ask the breeder for specifics.
Absolutely! Exercise is very important for the overall health and well-being of your Cavalier King Charles. It is best to start with short, slow walks and gradually add time and pace as your puppy's energy and stamina improve. Be sure to check with your veterinarian if you are unsure that your pup is of good enough health to begin running. Make sure you provide your pup with plenty of breaks during your runs and as long as your pup appears comfortable and healthy, they should be completely safe to take on runs.
Absolutely! Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are one of the most affectionate breeds, making them an excellent choice for families with children. Their sweet, patient and even-tempered personalities make them wonderful companions for all ages. They're also highly social and tend to quickly become an integrated member of the family. Their intelligence and eagerness to please also adds to their appeal. They tend to do well with other animals as well, making them ideal for multi-pet households.
