About the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel
The Cavalier King Charles Spaniel descends from toy spaniels popular in royal courts from the 16th century, particularly during the reigns of Charles I and II. Originally, these dogs had longer muzzles and flatter skulls, retaining some sporting instincts. A group of dedicated breeders worked to revive this older type, distinguishing it from the shorter-faced King Charles Spaniel, leading to Kennel Club recognition in 1945. This charming breed is known for its gentle nature and makes a delightful household companion.
