Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Breeders

Cavalier King Charles Spaniel

In the 1920s, Roswell Eldridge offered prize money at Cruft's Dog Show in London to anyone exhibiting these Spaniels with a longer nose, as they had appeared in King Charles II paintings. By the 1940s, these dogs were classified as a unique breed given the prefix "Cavalier" to differentiate them from their forebears. They are great family dogs, willing to lay around with you or accompany you on walks and liking both. When selecting one of these dogs, it is important to check the medical history of several previous generations because of the possibility of overbreeding due to their popularity. They are easy to train and get along with other dogs. They require lots of grooming. Small in stature, they typically weigh 12 to 18 lbs. and stand 12-13" at the shoulders.
