Find A Cavalier King Charles Spaniels Puppy

By Diane Perry


Nothing can make your home becoming instantly warmer and cozier as bringing a new puppy in can. Dogs are amazing, clever, loyal and unconditionally devoted, and it does not matter how big they are or which breed you personally prefer. If you come home with one Cavalier King Charles Spaniels puppy in your arms, your whole family will certainly appreciate it.

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.

They can be active and sporting, or simply enjoy cuddling up on your lap, perfectly adapting to your lifestyle. If you are a highly active person, this little dog will enjoy when you take her to a long walk. She will appreciate having an opportunity to chase birds or any other moving objects outside, but she will also be perfectly satisfied staying at home on her favorite cushion, as long as she is somewhere near to you.

There are no many differences between this particular breed and the one called King Charles Spaniel. The later is smaller, with domed skull and shorter muzzle length, while Cavaliers have flat skull and the weight is 10 to 18 pounds in average. Both breeds are equally affectionate, friendly and beautiful, as well as highly popular, and they both make perfect pets.

There are four accepted and recognized color variations. The most recognizable one is so called Blenheim, with chestnut markings on silky, pearl-white coats. This variation sometimes has the characteristic 'Duchess thumb', or 'Blenheim spot', but this is not required. If they have it, the spot should be on the center of their forehead.

Black and tan variety has black body with tan highlights, usually on the eyebrows, legs, cheeks and on the area beneath the tail. So called Tricolor variety comes in three colors, white, black and tan, and there is another variety called Ruby. Ruby should be uniformly chestnut, although there might be some areas, usually on their ears and slippers, where the color might be slightly lighter.

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.

These low maintenance dogs really aren't demanding. One brush a week will be quite enough to keep their lovely coats in perfect condition. They don't need trimming either. Even so, if you make the hair on their slippers shorter, it will be easier to clean them after taking a walk. Clean their ears regularly, but don't give them a bath unless it is really necessary. Good dog food twice a day and you will have a happy little dog.
