Cavalier King Charles Spaniels

Weighing in at over 14 pounds, the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is larger than the typical breed of toy dog. They usually have spots of brown, black, tan, or white. They are extremely affectionate and tend to be well-behaved. For this reason and because of their size does not make them overly delicate, they tend to be good family pets. They aim to please their owners making them relatively easy to train. They originated in the United Kingdom and were originally used as hunting dogs. They are prone to some heart and eye conditions so it is a good idea to see a prospective puppy's parent's health records before making a purchase.
