ETA: 8-10 years is average because of the serious health problems that the breed is prone to exhibit due to inbreeding. Heart defects (MVD) alone can drastically reduce life expectancy (even with aggressive treatment) to 5-6 years. The breed is susceptible to syringomyelia, which is a very painful neurological condition. Congenital deafness and arthritis are also common problems of the breed. Because of the statistical likelihood of these serious health problems, the life expectancy of the CKCS is reduced on average to 8-10 years.
Is the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel a good breed for inexperienced dog owners to own?
Generally, the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is a good breed for inexperienced dog owners to own if they are looking for a small dog that is friendly and affectionate.
The Cavalier's small size makes it an excellent apartment pet as long as it is taken for a walk daily. Its exercise requirement is adaptable, and is content with long walks too.
The Cavalier is also a dog that is friendly and gentle-natured, so it is suitable as a companion animal for children and families as long as they are handled in the right way. It also gets along with other dogs and animals well. *
This breed is also eager to please, easy to train and is an attentive learner. It is very responsive to both commands and praise. *
Besides, the Cavalier is a very affectionate dog. It's a tail wagging, happy creature that is happy to snuggle with you any day. Its small size and soft coat also makes it nice to cuddle. *
Moreover, the Cavalier is a beautiful dog with a sleek coat that comes in many colours. Its feathering gives its appearance a nice touch, and this breed has bright, large, intelligent-looking eyes.
Of course, the Cavalier is not for everyone. If you are not committed to brushing your dog regularly, then this is not the right breed for you as its longhaired coat needs maintenance. The Cavalier is also a heavy shedder and may not be suitable for people allergic to dogs.
The Cavalier is also prone to separation anxiety, which may lead to destructiveness and barking when left alone. A Cavalier that is from bad lines or is not socialised enough may also be timid or shy around people. This breed also has strong chasing instincts and needs to be fenced in or kept on a leash.
The Cavalier can also suffer from serious health problems and a number of genetic defects, which will lead to a shorter life span. So if you're buying a Cavalier from a breeder, it is important to check whether it comes from lines with genetic defects.
* Dogs of the same breed can have very different temperaments. The temperament description is only based on what a majority of Afghan Hounds are like.
Are cavalier king Charles spaniels good with rabbits and other small animals.?
Almost all dogs have no problem with any other animal, so long as they are raised together. It's when you introduce strange or different animals to the settled pack...the collection of humans and animals which have existed to the dog for a long time, for the life of the dog. There are many individual factors that have to do with dog and cat adjustment. It's is an individual sort of thing, unless you start them all off together, or are very careful with the introduction of one to the other. It, when they are older, depends on the lifestyles of the two, the cat and the dog, and lastly the human being.
