Cavalier King Charles Spaniel

Born companions, the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is an ideal mix of sporty and cuddly.

They are incredibly easy-going and sweet natured.

More About The Breed

Cavaliers come in four distinct color patters: black & tan, tricolor, blenheim, and ruby. In rare cases, they may also be chocolate or all-black.

Cavaliers are one most people-pleasing breeds you’ll find. Because of this, consistent, positive reinforcement is the most useful training technique. Harsh tones will only hurt during the training process, as they are sensitive to the mood of the people around them.

This breed is highly adaptable and fits well into almost any environment. They’re a great fit for apartment dwellers. They do not like being alone, however, so you will want to make sure they have plenty to do and plenty of company. If you can, take them with you when you have to leave.

Cavaliers are generally healthy dogs who live to be 9-14 years old. They may be susceptible to certain diseases, including mitral valve disease, syringomyelia, patellar luxation, and hip dysplasia. The health history of their parents, along with their diet and exercise play a large role in the health of the Cavalier.

Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are very intelligent, so they learn fairly quickly. With their intelligence, gentle nature, and drive to please their owner, they are a good fit for dog owners of any experience level. They are sensitive and gentle with a soft personality, so training should be positive and reward-focused. Raised voices or negative feedback can send these sensitive pups into hiding or into a sulk.

Cavaliers are easy to maintain. Their coats should be brushed once a week or so. Many Cavalier owners find that their dogs love nothing more than a good brush. For them, it’s like a full-body massage. In addition to their coats, their ears should be checked regularly for signs of infection, their nails trimmed monthly, and their teeth brushed a few times per week.

Cavaliers adapt well to their owner’s lifestyle. They were bed to be a lapdog but they love moderate exercise and outdoor activities. Just don’t let them off the leash outdoors - their hunting instincts mean they might run off on the trail of a small animal or scent.

A Cavalier King Charles Spaniel will typically stand between 12 to 13 inches at the shoulder and weigh between 10 and 18 pounds.

This dog breed generally lives from 9 to 15 years.

The Cavalier King Charles Spaniel got its name from King Charles I of Britain because it was his favorite dog breed.
