This little dog is full of energy!īody: The neck is long and the back straight, short-coupled with well-sprung ribs. The Cavalier King Charles Spaniel's build is fine and delicate. For its part, the World Canine Organisation (FCI) recognised the breed definitively in 1955. The Cavalier King Charles Spaniel (old type) was first recognised by The Kennel Club as a breed in its own right in 1945. And thus emerged the separation between the two breeds. Consequently, the word "Cavalier" was used to distinguish the "old-type" King Charles Spaniel from the new, flatter-faced type known simply as the King Charles. Some breeders lamented the decline in popularity of the slightly larger, longer-faced spaniel, which retained its sporting instinct. This led to crossbreeds between the Pekingese, King Charles Spaniel, and Pug breeds, and the King Charles Spaniel began to lose its slightly longer muzzle and flatter skull. The history of the two breeds is identical until the late 19th century when, with the arrival of the Pug and the Pekingese from China, it became the fashion for toy breeds to display a shorter muzzle. It is descended from the smaller King Charles Spaniel, popularised by King Charles II. The origins of the breed date back to at least the 16th Century.
