Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Health Information:
Like any breed of dog, the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is subject to a variety of health concerns. Your best bet is, when deciding to choose a new Cav puppy, check around with several breeders and ask about the various health issues that can affect these beautiful dogs. A reputable breeder should be well-versed in the health concerns and should be able to give you more details, as well as showing you the sire and dam of your potential puppy. Some of the health problems that can affect Cavalier King Charles Spaniels include:
Mitral valve disease Elbow dysplasia Episodic falling Syringomyelia
Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Exercise Information:
Unlike many of the Spaniel dogs, the Cavalier requires little physical exercise. Happy with the occasional walk and opportunity to do his business outside, he is the perfect lapdog and, accordingly, tends to be better suited for loafing around.
Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Grooming Needs:
It's important to get your Cavalier King Charles Spaniel puppy used to regular grooming at a young age - it's also a good habit for you. While the Cavie does not require the time consuming and costly primp of many other breeds, it is important to comb out his hair on a daily basis (particularly his ears), thereby avoiding snarls which can lead to painful mats. Additionally, this hands-on attention is good for your dog's physical and psychological health and it's a known fact that it's good for the human's health as well!
