 | (continued) ... throughout the 16th and 17th centuries, the King Charles Spaniel began to deviate in type with breedings to imported dogs such as the Japanese Chin and the Pug. In the 1920s a prize was offered to the breeder who produced the closest example to the original King Charles Spaniel. The resulting foundation dogs were bred for type, and eventually termed the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel to distinguish them from their ancestors. They were named for Charles II, because that was the period in which they were so popular as to appear in almost every royal portrait.
The Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is 12-13 inches high at the withers and weighs 13-18 lbs. They come in a number of colors, the oldest of which is known as the Blenheim, for the presence of dogs with the same pattern on the grounds of Blenheim Palace, several hundred years ago. This is a chestnut brown and white dog, with a specific distribution of color, particularly on the ears, and with a white blaze up the face where it is desirable to have a “kiss” or “Blenheim spot” in the center of the forehead. Other patterns include tri-color, ruby, or black and tan.
An engaging and sociable companion, the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel not only gets along well with people, they require lots of attention to satisfy their need to be with humans. Leaving them alone all day is not good for this kind of dog that craves company. Eager to please, they are easy to train in obedience, and to do small tricks. However their hunting instinct can mean that they will pursue things that attract their attention, even if it is a butterfly, while ignoring a return command. They are best kept on a leash when out of your yard. © DogDecor.com | | | | |
