I never realized how special Cavalier King Charles Spaniels were until I got one. Now she is without a doubt my best buddy. Loves to sit in my lap, follows me wherever I go and hates it when I leave the house and shes always the first to greet me at the door. :) They truly are a great breed of dog.

I'm glad you pointed out how stubborn Cavaliers are! They may be super cute and affectionate, but if you try to tell them to do anything they don't want to do, there's only going to be one winner and it's them 😂

My Blenheim boy died early July this year, he was 13 years 7 months old. Thank you for being with me for over 13 years with such fun time and incredible memories. I am still miss him very much.😭

My very first dog was a Cavalier King Charles. She was absolutely so precious, and what a beautiful character and personality! I still miss my little Sophie to this day.

Worst thing for me was when I lost her. News years day. Ten wonderful years I had with my little girl. Best thing was no matter what day I had she was always there waiting for me excited to see me everytime. Iv had a few different breeds before but the cav was just pure magic. I will give it some time and then I will be getting another one. Just a lovely breed. Life just isn't complete with out a pooch in it 🐕❤🌍

Yes I agree with the commentary. I got a King Charles like 6 months ago. My boyfriend gave her to me. I love her so much I’ve had other dongs but they were not as attached to me. I didn’t think I’d like it but she keeps me warm, so affectionate, and lots of empathy when upsets. I wouldn’t have it any other way. Her name is cinnamon bun and they always try to steal her at the vets. She is awesome!

Daisy is such a daddy’s girl! You have beautiful affectionate dogs. I have 2, Missy and Waffle and I live for them both. I have severe depression and they just know when I’m struggling. I lost my Blenheim 2 years ago, she would have been 13 today. Thank you for this lovely video.

You absolutely hit the nail on the head about Cavaliers. Like you we got our first two the past couple of years. We've had a number of other breeds but the way these two have filled our lives is unbelievable. Like you, we don't want to go anywhere without them. Our 2 are similar in their different personalities as well.

Spot on. I found it helps to have two cavalier king charles at the same time. They are literally love sponges. I always was a large dog type of person but found myself loving our CKC. You need to enjoy every moment of it as they have a short lifespan, which can be shortened even further if they have a heart issue.

You have totally won my heart. I'm going to need some help getting one but I do believe this is the therapy dog I need.

I was very lucky to have been around them through a close friend of mine to know what they are like before eventually getting mine this year. If anyone is considering getting one, but don’t know much about them it’s very important to first do your homework, they are definitely NOT like any other dog breed. But it was the best thing I ever did, and only reason I could is because of the pandemic I’m permanently working from home, because I knew you can’t leave them alone. They are wonderful little bundles of pure love 💙

These videos give me so much serotonin

Great video guys!

We have a wonderful and loving Cavalier too. He is almost seventeen which is a bit unusual given their propensity for heart problems. He has been on heart medicine for three years and is still going. It is always tough to give these little guys up when the time comes.

This was a beautifully done review and precisely parallels my experience with these lovely dogs. Your love and sincerity come through immediately!

My Ruby Cavalier, Shelby was the sweetest little baby. Such a good smart girl!! She passed away in 2018 from heart failure. I am still devastated after 4 years. I am getting my puppy Cavalier October 1st, I can not wait❤️❤️ Enjoy your videos!

And they shed like crazy❤❤❤

I agree with everything! My Cav has to be lifted on the bed, off the bed… 😂😂😂 I call her “baby dog” and those big, brown eyes. 🐶💕

I love my Cavalier Hudson!! He makes me smile and laugh EVERY day!! Your video is spot on about the things a person needs to know though before they bring one of these loving dogs into there life and home! I'm so blessed that my granddaughters decided they didn't want their grandpa to be alone so when their dogs had puppies they wanted me to have one. I've been in households with dogs and shared caring for them but it's ALLOT different when it's just you doing everything and so suggestions and advise is appreciated for sure!! I can tell you love your dogs and like me life will never be the same in a very positive way, enjoy your videos, thank you!!! Brad

My 7 month old puppy really does love to jump around. Unfortunately, he broke his elbow after falling off the couch when he was alone at home :-( he had surgery and is doing well. Hope he will recover fully. I love him to bits! He is the sweetest, very friendly and gentle.

I got my first Cavalier in 2005, and I fell in love. Won’t have another breed of dog, will only have Cavaliers now. Have two at the moment, Ace and Clara. Can’t not love them.

I'm with you. Described my pup exactly!

I love this video. I just got my first Cavalier (Leo) in August as an anniversary gift/my daughter went to college and I was a bit sad without her here/ I work from home and needed a companion. And he has fulfilled everything I hoped for and more. He sits on my lap while I am working, he snuggles with us in bed, and I have a health condition that has me down sometimes and he is just so sweet and affectionate when I am having a hard day. He loves the sunshine so we go out regularly and I die a little when he smells flowers or chases butterflies. My husband and I got married 2 years ago and decided not to have more children together, but we joke that he is the baby we never had because he is more like a little person than a dog. Truly the best

I used to have 2 cavaliers but sadly had to Put one down I miss her so much but I am in love with this breed it’s the best breed to get their super loving for sure

I totally agree. My boy is everything to us and I just hate leaving him even for a moment. Now I only go to places where they will accept dogs . If my boy is not welcome I feel like I am not welcome.

It was so nice meeting you here at the dog beach, Trucker was my dog 😍

I’m getting a cav in a few weeks. I’m so happy I have found this channel. I watch so many videos just to prepare for my sweet little boy cooper that I’m going to get soon. THANK YOU

I have a Blenheim girl and she's the sweetest, most affectionate dog I've ever known. I love her to bits.

Love all the cavalier videos! We just picked up our new ruby cavalier named Ralphie. Watching from Canada😀

My cavalier barked while watching this XD

My heart is melting 😍

Well done. A vid from the heart, with practical content also.

I have kept cavalier king Charles spaniels for over 30 year's. I wouldn't own any other breed. They are a lap dog, and constant companion. I've had 8 in my time never had one on its own. They love to give you love, and be loved and pampered. Be warned though, they have no road sense what so ever, always keep them on a lead, if walking out by traffic, as if they see something on the other side of the road, they will be gone, to investigate!

Daisy is a sweet name! My cavalier is named Poppy. Training…. I have had to trained my partner to be firmer. But yeah… they really do ‘choose’ to obey. Lol 😂

I just had my 4th and final child and I have adored having babies but 4 is a good number of kids to have and spend time with. However! I know I am going to be hit with the baby blues once my youngest is about 3 so I am already planning on adopting a CKCS to love and I know s/he will be given lots of cuddles by the 6 of us. They seem like the sweetest family dog!

Yes each cavalier has its own personality

My girl was extremely easy to train. She did fetch on her own. She does need to be constantly held and picked up. Even when asleep. She will purposely refuse unless there’s a treat. Won’t go outside in the rain and sometimes fake a pee because she wants to run in fast for a meal. My girl is not afraid of anything. Not even traffic. I walked her as a puppy and large trucks didn’t even bother her. She will sleep on her bed at the door till I come home. Never moving for 7-8 hours. I would never want another breed.

Spot on 😍

Just got a little dude bro four months old - I’m hearing everything your saying 😎

Daisy looks exactly as our Canela, cute, shy, but adorable😍

Such a nice video and you are such a lovely person with your beautiful doggies!

So gorgeous little baby dog aww 💜🧡💙💚💝💛❣️♥️💞💗💓❤️💖

My cavi boy stole my heart, then grandma's. She insisted they be buried together, and so they are together in heaven now :)

We have a Black and Tan Cavalier King Charles. This is our second Cavalier. The first one was not bred well and he died at 7 from heart disease. We named him Windsor. Everyone heard Winston, so no big deal. Call him what you want. The one we have now is well bred and I did a lot of research before going to Dallas to pick him up. Yes, that was several states away from us, but they bred Cavaliers for dog shows. We named this one Churchill because I knew no one would forget that name. He hates cats, cars and boats. But, we take him anyway because he would rather be with us than at the Vet's office for boarding. He is so affectionate and loves our grown children, too. We take in cats and Churchill does not like him. God created dogs and then He must have said.....Let me create an animal that is opposite from a dog. Ha Ha. I love cats so much, too.

I love how you explain this You’re just as sweet!

I have two Toy Australian Sheppards, one 13 and one 3 yrs old. I love them as you do yours and know the feeling about needing attention, especially my 6 pound little girl Chicklet, (Chickie) for short. She’s the epitome of a lap dog and the cutest lover ever! ❤️

Hi Ryan! I'm a cavalier owner and the best thing I bought after having my cavalier Nelson, is a i- robot. It collects all the fur Nelson products!

I love love love my Ruby, Sir Oliver!! They are the sweetest dogs!!! ❤

They are so adorable 🥰

Lmao, I am a Cavalier owner too and Phoebe is my 2nd Cavalier. Yours have you trained. My 1st Bailey also had me wrapped around his paw. He insisted on being hand fed until I learned better and broke him of that habit. They will train you to please them if you let them but if you are firm & gentle they will do their best to please you.

They definitely love being "babied". I love him!

I wished I could get one but my mum is terrified of dogs but I love em 🥺

My Cav is nothing but chaos and we still Keanu. He will either be completely passed out one moment or he will try to take my tissues or destroy a toilet paper roll.

We have 8 CKC,2 off each colour, all girls but have had boys in the past. There are characteristic differences in the colours. In our experience we find that black n tans are loyal , protective and pack leaders. Blenhiems, are love sponges and know how beautiful they are, divas!. Rubies are lovable but a bit silly and stubborn. Tri colours are crazy, adventurist and want to make you laugh. But all of them steal your heart. By far the best dogs on this planet.

What cuties you all are! 🥰

I wish I'd known how much they snore. Good luck if you're in a studio or something because I could hear my Grace from different floors of the house! Otherwise yes, so much personality in such a small package. Your Daisy looks a lot like Grace but has the opposite personality; Grace was the kind of dog who would go nuts when someone knocked on the door and throw herself into their arms! Miss that girl, cherish every moment with yours. They look like such sweeties!

I could not stop at 1 and now I have five of this love bugs.❤️

Boy I sure do want one❤️

Hi Ryan, I thought my dog wanted to be picked up to get on the bed and the sofa all the time too because she would whine to get on. I recently learned the reason she won't jump on and off the couch anymore is because she has a knee problem. Not saying that's the problem with your dog, but you may want to get her knees x-rayed.

My cav actually escorts me to the door, when I want to leave for something. It's not that she loves being alone, but she's getting a treat she's only allowed to take when I'm leaving. So, she really wants me gone so she can eat it. She also was pretty easy to train, at least most things (some took years, like sniffing...). She just wanted to please and that makes all cavs easy to train. But because they want to please, they clown around as well... Also, there's no dog greeting me when I get home... But, her hearing never was the best. And if she's sleeping... well... She won't wake up easily... What I really experienced as being totally different from other dogs: My cav is so full of trust in the world. That there's nothing bad. That everyone just loves everyone else - because that's how she feels. Humans are the best, dogs coming in a long way after that on second place. (or, maybe third after food) I really have to take care to not let her endanger herself with her trust (moving cars? Growling dogs? Fast bycicles? you name it...). If something bad happens, you can just see how her world shatters. She's mostly quick to going back to what she was like before (1-2 weeks), but, yeah... But it also teaches you a lot. Her being friendly with just everyone and every dog, you just realize how far friendliness get's you. There's hardly any human (or dog!) that doesn't like her. She's having male dogs following her. She's having everyone giving her treats, bringing treats just for her etc. Just because she's friendly. (and yeah, I try not to fall for her ways too much and she knows.) But, at least mommy's still the best. While she loves all humans, her own human still comes way before everyone else :)

I love them 😊

I've had Cavalier's since 1993.

Agree with all your points, they are a fantastice breed, loyal, affectionate and lots of fun. They love their walks but please be careful in woods as they are hunters and will chase squirrels out of sight. They are stubborn and will only obey if treats are involved! (Bit like me).

Babies, but mine learns quickly. So tolerant of children carrying, playing etc. I can't say best bc I've loved all my past babies, too.

Going to get my baby this weekend ! I’m so excited

Just picked up my puppy today, excited but nervous been awhile since I've had a puppy. Wish me luck!

I have a cocker spaniel and he’s very special and has a mind of his own. He is one of three Spaniel I have owned and all were very affectionate.

I love it! My baby is coming here Wednesday! She looks like Daisy

Greetings ✨From Florida 🐬 You nailed it 🎯 I have 2/ KCC 🐶 🐶 Thank You 🙏for Sharing 💕

I am considering getting one in a couple of months after having lost my 12-year-old JackChi. I’ve always wanted one but was afraid about the health risk. I know it would be perfect for my lifestyle as a mental healthcare professional because I take my dog to work with me everyday and I work from home a few days through each month.

I lost my corgi cross 9 1/2 years ago. It's only now that I am starting to consider the possibility of having another dog, we have four cats currently. Have been researching breeds and particularly looking for one that's good with cats. Have met Cavs in the past, and always just loved their affection, gentleness and they just have so much love to give. Started to fall in love with the breed… Then went to see some friends last week, and their friend had breeding cabbies. I always wanted to get an adult, and one of her breeders she may be retiring in about six months. So now I am thinking and praying about whether I should get another dog or not. Been thinking of the lifestyle we lead, we both work from home, we both live in a small town on the west coast of the North Island of New Zealand, and we take walks a lot, go to the beach, go for car rides, go to the Arboretum about 40 minutes drive away where you can take your dog on a lead, all these sorts of things. So in other words if I did get a cab, that dog would never be left alone… Very rarely anyway. Because I do voluntary work outside the home, but my partner is pretty much always home, so if I'm not with doggy, then he will be. There are so many things to consider when getting a dog. So many practical issues, financial issues… It is a huge responsibility. But I know now that I definitely want a cab. And they are purported to be good with cats which is a bonus in our house. So yes… Thinking and praying about it and looking at my situation objectively and seeing whether it is feasible for me to get another dog. But the good thing is, for the first time in 9 1/2 years, I am ready in myself for it even if I decide that I'm not practically ready yet. What I do know is yes, I want an adult dog because that seems to work better for me and it has in the past, but I definitely want a cab. So thanks for this video, pretty much stuff I was already aware of. But I can definitely say… They will steal your heart. I haven't stopped thinking about this little dog I met last week. And wondering whether… When she is retired from breeding… She might end up with us! It would be so neat to do all the things we do and have a best friend by your side to share them with.

I honestly thought this video was going to be a very basic video about dogs not specific to the breed But I have one and I definitely agree with what you said! They are definitely not dogs you can leave at home for long periods of time and they are very loving and my dog LOVES everyone and anything he will cry and bark and flip out when he can't do love and lick everyone he sees and smell all the dogs but he is also still a puppy (8 months)

Another thing you could have said is how once you have one you normally get another one haha!

What a nice video. Nice pooches and hansom guy! Hello to you all from Johnny B Goud- the best Cavalier in a whole world!)

We got Stevie when we both retired.It took a yr to potty train him.We argued for the full yr as we kept blaming each other whose training is not working.

Best breed. Loved you video.

I've been watching my daughters 2 cavaliers (sisters) and they have been my shadow for the past week. They've very good but they do want us to pick them up all the time, which I'm reluctant to do since I have significant balance and nerve issues. They're good size pups and are used to being picked up all the time. Gorgeous pups but totally untrained and spoiled rotten. Not leash trained at all- I almost killed myself trying to take them for a walk...So many smells!! So many dogs! So many people! They were like 2 toddlers that had been locked up for 2 years and were suddenly let loose in a playground...

So true.

We have two, with same disposition you described in yours. The more adventurous one, with selective hearing, raises her tail and keeps trotting away despite our calls. We call it her f…u…tail. 😊

I’m getting a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel in 10 days and this video really helped me.

#6 they want to lick you constantly, keep your mouth closed if you're holding them🫢 #7 they can think they are mountain goats and somehow manage to climb up on top of a grand piano. But how I love them!

Cavaliers are addictive!

They’re great dogs! I laughed when you said they can sleep funny. They’re the middle aged women of the dog world lol!

You have beautiful babies!

Get a cavie and you’ll never want another breed. It’s true.

Hi Ryan. I love cavaliers. They are small dogs but it would be the biggest dog I will have. Marie

If you are considering this beautiful breed then insurance is a must because 99% of all cavaliers are effected by mitral valve disease. The most important thing is to buy from a breeder that tests the parents and grandparents.. the breeders need to give you medical proof that testing has been done. They also suffer from ciari malformation (brain to big for skull) this is my breed of choice but you need to be aware of the severity of their illnesses. Norway has banned any breeding of cavaliers for this reason calling it cruelty to the breed.

I love it how you didn't realize your dog would need love from you everyday. Dogs aren't plants

My Cavalier Jesse is the best. He shows me great affection & I love him more than anyone I have ever known. As I tell people who compliment him Jesse is even nicer than he is pretty.

How do you suggest finding an expert, totally into the Cavalier King Charles 😊pups. I’ve raised one that ended up being sick or needing another surgery & so on. I loved her soooo much that it became heartbreaking. She was the best little precious friend & dog I’ve ever had. She was easy to train-never complained, loving I could go on & on. I’m ready to have another baby but have been trying for the last two months to try to talk myself into not getting a Cavalier. I don’t think I could ever have another breed. If I could have her back I would. I just have to make sure this one is from a reputable-TOTALLY reputable breeder. I now know my AddieRose was not. I’d really appreciate any help I can get. Thank you and MERRY CHRISTMAS!

I’m thinking of getting one. I have spina bifida, so long walks are out. But I do have a big fenced in back yard and I can do indoor activities. I’m looking into a cavalier as an emotional support pet. I’ve had an American cocker spaniel previously, but I thought someone smaller for me would be better. I don’t mind brushing as long as the puppy doesn’t. Bentley didn’t like to be brushed, but he always seemed happiest when he was groomed. I don’t have a problem being around them all the time. I wouldn’t want to leave him/her alone. Can anyone give me any tips visa vie what to look for in a groomer or a specific gender or variety of cavalier King Charles? I’ve heard males are better lap dogs and, like humans (lol), the girls tend to be more independent and have you figured out in a second. The boys are more codependent from what I understand. What should I look for so I don’t get conned by a breeder? Thanks!

I just met my Cavalier grand puppy and it was instant love❣️

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Everything you talk about reminds me of my cocker spaniel.

❤

You darlings are so beautiful 💕💕💕

My Cav is the best dog I have ever had.

New here and been looking for a small dog now that my recent dog passed.

Bro u made me cry 😭 why u gotta finish the video that way!!!!

characteristics 1, 2, 5: There are also people like that. I wish people knew that about people.
