Find A Cavalier King Charles Spaniels Puppy

By Diane Perry


Dog is the man's best friend, and that's one of those things you can really trust. Small or big, dogs are always loyal, faithful and beautiful and they make the world a more beautiful place. And your home becomes more comfortable and warmer if one of these four-legged, hairy pets lives in it, especially when it's Cavalier King Charles Spaniels puppy.

These beautiful and clever little dogs are immensely friendly, always ready to play or to cuddle on your lap. Their patience and sweet nature make them suitable for large families with children, but also for anyone who'll appreciate their beauty and numerous qualities, including elderly people. They can easily live in a very small apartment, but also in a large house with a yard, but they prefer to be close to their owners all the time.

Another great characteristic of these adorable little dogs is their ability to adapt to virtually any situation. They will be perfectly satisfied in some small apartment in the city, but equally happy living in the country house, as long as they have someone to spend time with. If you give them a chance to run, they will do it happily. If you stay home, they will sleep on the cushion. It doesn't really matter, as long as you are there.

If we exclude the difference in size, there are no major differences between Cavalier King Charles and King Charles breeds. The first one is is slightly bigger, with ten to eighteen pounds weight. The ears are set just a little bit higher, and the skull is flat. Both breeds are really affectionate and friendly, and you won't make a mistake choosing any of them for your pet.

There are four officially recognized color varieties. Blenheim is probably the most popular one. This irresistible combination of pearly white coats and warm chestnut markings is equally adorable on puppies as it's on adult doggies. So called Blenheim spot in the middle of the forehead is highly appreciated, although not obligatory.

Another variety is called simply Black and Tan. The coat is black, with tan areas placed mostly on their eyebrows, cheeks and legs, as well as on the area just beneath their tails. Tricolor has the combination of black, tan and white, while the fourth variation, so called Ruby, has uniform chestnut color, and it is not so rare that this color is slightly lighter on their slippers or maybe on their ears.

Purebreds usually have some characteristic health issues. In this case, dogs might have problems with their ears, eyes and hips. Mitral valve disease is a genetic disease Cavaliers might have as well, and buying your puppy from a reputable breeder is a chance to learn more about it, and to avoid buying the dog that is not healthy.

Cavalier doesn't require too much maintenance. One good weekly brush will take care of her lovely coat, and no trimming is required. Although, most owners usually trim their slippers anyway, simply to clean them easier. Give your dog a bath only when it is necessary, and use some mild, good quality shampoo for this purpose. Feed her twice a day, with good quality dog food.
