Re: Advice Needed! ( Cavalier King Charles exercise)


Don't know obviously why you're thinking of a ckc if you know a breeder or have seen one in rescue then you might have your heart set on one but that sounds more like a springer lifestyle than a ckc to be honest. I've never owned a ckc but have quite a bit of experience with springers and cockers, a ckc would propably go and go but be knackered the rest of the time whereas springers, and working cockers actually, will just carry on and on and on.... You say your existing dog is exercise mad which will be the breed so another high octane breed would easily be able to keep up, a springer would thrive on all that exercise. Other people will have different opinions of course and there might be people that own ckc on here that can disprove all the things I've said about them!

Re: Advice Needed! ( Cavalier King Charles exercise)


Well thanks everyone for your help and advice, we've replaced the cycling in our fitness regime with a nice long walk to make things a little more cav friendly, it also means we have more time to socialize with dogs and owners

We've also been looking at rescue places etc and have managed to find a new addition to the family...............allow me to introduce Olly He's 6 months old and is a super active bundle of fun. He needs a little bit of training, which should keep us all busy!

Anyway time for some pics of the little chap!




And here he is with our other dog, Sophie who he is maybe a little TOO fond of!!

Re: Advice Needed! ( Cavalier King Charles exercise)


Well done on rescuing a Cavalier.

Please remember that he is still a puppy when going walking & keep to the 5 minutes per month of age rule. He will be quite willing to go forever, but could end up with joint & growth problems if he has too much walking etc before he has finished growing

My 20 month Cavalier loves my BC puppy & plays for ages with her & my Mr Wu(who is my next youngest BC)
