Cavalier King Charles
Spaniels
Toy Dog Breed
In
1997, the
American Cavalier King Charles
Spaniels Club prepared a "breed standard" at the time the American
Kennel Club first recognized the
Cavalier Spaniel breed.
The breed standard describes what ideal Cavalier
King Charles Spaniels should look like. It forms the basis for
judging conformation at dog show competitions.
Many families are looking for a
loyal canine companion, rather than a dog show champion, and are
somewhat less concerned about finding a "perfect" pet.
All the
same,
having a breed standard gives Cavalier King Charles Spaniel breeders a
guideline as to the traits and characteristics they hope to foster in
their kennel's lineage.
You can review the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel breed
standard here.
There are four
distinct Cavalier King Charles colors
for this small toy dog breed.
