#16 Since the breed was bred as companion dogs, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels perfectly fit the image of a family friend.
They are affectionate to all family members, but they choose one owner for themselves. It is important to immediately confirm his authority and leadership, then you will not have problems with the four-legged pupil. Teach children the correct behavior with a small dog, because usually, a non-aggressive toddler can bite in response to a careless attitude. He most of all strives for the presence of a person nearby, therefore even a short separation painfully experiences.
#17 Most of the characteristic diseases of the Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are located on the dog’s head – these are hydrocephalus and epilepsy, hanging tongue syndrome and various eye problems, ear infections.
Watch if the baby's eyelid is curled inward - thin eyelashes can irritate the eyeball. He does not have a very strong musculoskeletal system, so problems with intervertebral discs and dislocation of the patella are common. Also, the dog may suffer from a chronic insufficiency of the heart valves.
#18 Despite the long coat, caring for a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel poses fewer problems than it might seem at first glance.
Regular brushing is a standard requirement for pet dog grooming. Such a pet is bathed once every two weeks or less, using a special mild shampoo. Do not use a hairdryer to quickly dry a fluffy baby - the hot air can injure his skin. Cavalier King - Charles - Spaniels are domestic dogs in the full sense of the word, therefore they should live next to the owner.
