Cavalier King Charles Spaniel puppies for sale across Canada

Breed history

The Cavalier King Charles Spaniel has a royal and storied past, with roots tracing back to the 16th century in England. This breed was beloved by King Charles II, who was known for his deep affection for small spaniels, which is reflected in the breed’s name. Originally bred as a companion dog, Cavaliers were often seen by the sides of nobility and aristocracy. Their graceful appearance, affectionate nature, and ability to adapt to their owner’s lifestyle made them highly sought after. Over the years, their physical characteristics have evolved from their larger, toy spaniel ancestors into the smaller, more refined version we see today. Despite changes over time, their role as a devoted companion has remained constant.
