Cavalier King Charles Spaniels (CKC) are typically considered small to medium in size by breed standards, but they can range from a petite 10 pounds to a plump 20 pounds.

Most people, however, view them as a small to medium breed, which means that they do not take up a lot of space, have a low grooming need, and have a mild energy level.
