Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Dog Breed Guide | Dogs 101 - Cavalier King Charles Spaniel

Hard for me to own any other breed. Lost my 1rst Cav to the symptoms of a prolonged heart murmur at 10+ years of age. Had to put him down as his episodic falls were increasing in frequency. Can still hear his crying as I would have to pick him up after falling. He had an innate sense it was time and he wanted to sleep on my bed the night before doing so. Took it harder than any previous loss in my life.

He was the epitome of an Alpha Dog and regret not pursuing agility training with him. He would have excelled at it with a great teacher.

I also own a female (will turn 9 in 3 months) in great health. She is the poster child for their nickname “The Love Sponge.” She prefers humans over other dogs. You could say she tolerates other dogs. :-)

Mine loved to ride in the automobile and gladly so, as I did many long trips (10+ hours) with no issues. Ideally, if you can swing owning 2 at once, that lessens separation anxiety should you have to be away for an extended period.


Glad I took and continue to take many pictures of candid moments. They are a blessing!

I have spina bifida and PTSD. Do these dogs require a lot of long walks?

Mein Cavalier leidet an Syringomyeli und Chiari malformation. Bitte überlegt euch gut, ob ihr diese Qualzuchten weiterhin durch einen Kauf unterstützen wollt. Es sind viele Hunde dieser entzückender Rasse betroffen.:(

They are simply the best

Great guide. Thumbs up from a fellow creator 😅
