The Cavalier King Charles is a toy breed of spaniel. It is known for being a friendly and loyal companion dog that is affectionate and sociable.

Undemanding and adaptable, the breed is low maintenance and would be equally as suitable for those with a large garden as those living in a city apartment. They are moderately intelligent and eager to please, which makes them easily trainable.

Being easy-going and low maintenance makes the King Charles a great dog for a first time owner.
