I love to see Cavalier vids and we have one of these amazing dogs as well, ours is free at all times, my heart doesn't even let me to put them in a cage. They are so soft hearted, know how to communicate and express themselves that if you pay atention to them, you know what they want, the only limitation they need is FOOD. They are Gourmands, they love to eat and are picky about food but they are angels in everything you can wish for.
Why would 3 of the younger dogs be in 1 crate? There’s plenty of room in the kitchen Why would the 10 year old not have a bed? I ask this as someone who currently has 4 rescues (2 XL & 2 small).
Love your cavies. I have 5 now since Bettys litter was born 1/1/24 . Thrilled you can get them not to bark in the crates i only have one barker. Taylor only barks for food, when I leave or return home, lol
I love all your cavvys. I've got 2 right now. One is 14 years old and my other girl is 1 year old. I've had a total of 5 cavvys in my life and I absolutely adore them. They are the light of my life. Cavvys are such easy, sweet, loving dogs and so easy to care for. I've never met one I didn't like. I've never crated my girls. I always felt they were too confining, but your girls seem not to mind at all. I can see how much you love and care for your girls. They are well taken care of. There is nothing like the love of a cavalier. ❤❤❤❤
King Charles are my ultimate breed when it comes to dog beauty! I became a first time dog owner two years ago on my 50th birthday. I have a beautiful shorkie (that sometimes gets confused with King Charles spaniel) and I've never looked back.
6 months into most precious puppy mill momma rescue. I’ve learned alot watching your videos and love to watch the different personalities. I see a lot of my Miriam in them. Just hoping she doesn’t start to meow as she has 6 kitty siblings, they are all larger than her but love to snuggle. I thank you for taking the time to show us your beauties!
Ohhhh My Heart~~ 💓💓💓 💓💓 I've recently lost my mother, my brother and then, my twin sissy all in the last 2 years. 💔👭💔 My only daughter recently moved away to start college so, it's just me now. I've always wanted one of these sweet, loving, beautiful cavs~ You and they are, sooooo lucky and sooooo very blessed! 💛💛💛💛💛
your dogs are beautiful!! I have 2 cavs, one is always sleeping (like me, mum, but i also got her a therapy dog with depression so maybe picked up on my habits at the time ) and the other is so high energy, steals stuff and loud (mum is my sister) definitely reaching the dog is like the owner stereotype lovely to see so many cavs together! Wish I could have more
Thanks for sharing loved it, My Bronte is also aware of time and routine and lets me know that it meal time and sits watching me {prepare her meal first then mine } on the couch and she gets to sleep on the bed after watching a little tv.
With our yard, they all get plenty of exercise running around. We try to take them out, especially to a store where they can meet people, but with our numbers, they don't get to do that as often as we'd like.
❤we LOVE each and every one of your 4 paw 🐾 family members. We’ve been parents to 6 ourselves. We have a wonderful Black and Tan (Sadie) and a Ruby Rescue (Baxter). We use snoods at feeding time as you do. Which brings us to our question. Could you let me know where you get your snoods from? Thank you for All your informative videos and the LOVE ❤ we share for this wonderfully special loving breed. Again ThankYou and hope to hear back regarding your feeding time snoods. 🐶 Keith
We get our snoods from a friend who makes them by hand and sells them at dog shows. If you go to a Cavalier specialty show, you might find one. However, the easiest way to get a nice snood is to find a handmade one on a site like etsy.com. Enter "dog snood cavalier" in the etsy search bar.
Love this! How do you get them to love their crates so much? We have a 14 wk old ruby who is happy to go in her crate when sleepy and “guided” in, but never chooses to go in herself. We are having treat times in there during the day, so maybe this will come?? Thanks!
They eat every meal in the crate, and they get a treat whenever we have to put them into a crate. We also use crate training for housebreaking, so the Cavaliers we bred will have been exposed to crates from the age of 8 weeks.
I crate my Cavaliers when I leave the house. They get excited when I am leaving and run in their crates because I give them a treat. They will often just go lay in their crate when I am home. I also feed them in their crates.
We get ours from a friend who makes them by hand and sells them at Cavalier dog shows. The best ones are handmade, and you can find plenty of them by going to etsy.com and searching for "snoods for dogs."
I always add warm water to the kibble for my adult Cavaliers, not so much to soften it as for other reasons. The water aids in digestion, and it also helps to bring out the aroma that they find appetizing. Dogs have a much more sensitive sense of smell than taste, so the warm water helps make it more appetizing to them. For young puppies, I use hot water to soften the kibble, by letting it sit for 5-10 minutes, since their teeth are not yet fully developed, and their digestive tracts are much smaller.
They get a small treat in the morning, but only one meal, which we give in the evening. Most of the adults get about 3/4 cup of Royal Canin Small Breed kibble with a little warm water. That keeps them at the right weight.
@@chaskat35 I have 2 cavs, they only get one meal a day, and a few treats during the day. when we tried feeding them morning and evening they wouldnt really eat each meal. I find this way they eat what they need in the evenings and are happy with a few treats during the day. but that could be my dogs
😢 why are they in such tiny little cages with no pillows I don’t understand. It’s almost heartbreaking to watch how many Cavaliers are in one little miniature cage I’m sorry I just would never do that to my cavalier. We love watching your show.
I've said this many times, but pardon me for saying it one more time. Dogs go back to a den animal background. Their anscestors lived in packs and found warmth, safety, and comfort in cuddling together in tight spaces. That instinct lives on in today's dogs. We leave several small and medium sized crates open in our living space, and the dogs voluntarily choose to rest in the crates, even though there is a comfy sofa and easy chair wide open for them. Right at this moment, as I check where my 4 dogs are, one is on the sofa, and the other 3 are in crates. Two of them are in the same small crate, even though there are two other bigger ones available. This is where they choose on their own to rest, not where I put them. As far as pillows and cushions go, most of our crates do have them inside, but the dogs almost always push them aside and crunch them up in the corners of the crate, allowing themselves to sleep on the bare crate floor. We often attribute our own human preferences to our pets, but dogs have their own instincts and preferences. I prefer to allow the dogs to have what they themselves want, as opposed to what I as a human being would want.
They do fine if you leave them for a few hours, but be prepared for a BIG welcome home when you return. Ours are crate trained from when they are young puppies, so they do well in a crate. Generally, I will put the younger ones (2 years and younger) in crates, but trust the older ones to be free in a single room.
Two reasons: 1. They have different personalities - Boo loves to sleep next to us, but Tag is a bit more of a loner, and often seeks out an empty crate to sleep in. 2. My wife Katie developed a strong bond with Boo, and the two of them are pretty much inseparable. It's just as well it worked out this way, since we only have a queen size bed, and there really isn't enough room for more than one dog!
We simply don't have room for the two of us and all the dogs - it's just a queen size bed. Boo is the best bed dog of them all, so she gets the privilege.
I just got a 15 week old King Charles puppy I’m trying to train him to not chase nor bark after my cat but only does so if my cat hisses at him I have them separated they can see each other is there anything I can do to help? Will it just take time for them to get used to each other? Cat isn’t used to having a dog in house either
They usually adapt very quickly - however, if the cat isn't very accepting of the puppy, it will take more time. Try to make it more pleasant for the two of them to be together; maybe give little treats when they are near each other.
I find it a little disturbing to see them confined to a cage so much. I have had 2 Cavies and Neither spent time in a cage once they began sleeping on the bed! I dislike confining them to a cage! I Love them Free Roaming and being with Me Everywhere for Everything!
We only give the older adults freedom to move around while we are asleep, which kind of limits us to Boo and Tag. Tag prefers to sleep in a crate - I often find her napping there during the day. So Boo gets the special privelege.
What a sweet video. I just have two comments - one, that you show three dogs coming out of one crate. Assuming they were in there all night, this is borderline abuse, because the crate should be big enough for the (one) dog to move around and lie comfortably. As a Cavalier owner for over 20 years, I am very knowledgeable about the breed. Two, you seem to feed them once a day. Most veterinarians recommend feed small dogs like them twice a day because otherwise they stay hungry to too long. Just some advice. Please don't be offended. I have no desire to insult, just to make sure your pups are well taken care of. I saw ribbons - what do your 'kids' compete in?
Thanks for your comments. Please understand that dogs are pack animals, and naturally like to gather in a den setting. We leave crates open during the day, and most of the time our dogs choose to sleep in what they perceive as a safe space in one of the crates, rather than to hop up on the sofa or lie on the floor. Many times, 2 or 3 dogs will choose to occupy the same crate together, even though there are others empty and available to them. The crate you saw 3 dogs in is a larger size than what we mostly use for a single dogs. At bedtime, they go into it voluntarily, and they are quite comfortable. Our feeding schedule came about when both of us were working, and only had time for a prepared meal once a day. Of course, when they are puppies, they go from 3 or 4 meals a day, down to 2 per day when they are older, and eventually to just one "regular" meal in the evening. They do get treats in the morning, so their appetite is satisfied. Multiple feedings for adult dogs are actually far more important for larger breeds than for smaller dogs like Cavaliers. As far as competition is concerned, we have been active members of the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Club USA for nearly 40 years, and we show our dogs at their specialty shows regularly. Since AKC brought Cavaliers in as a recognized breed in the 1990s, we also exhibit our dogs in those shows as well. In addition, we have successfully competed in Obedience, Agility, and Trick Dog competitions. There are several dog show videos on my channel, so you can see what goes on there.
Where are you? Are you back East or in California? Are your Cavaliers free from mitral valve disease? They are all adorable, I had a Cavalier King Charles And just September had to let her go to Rainbow Bridge🌈 she was only 11 and 3 months but we were Traumatized by someone that triggered her Heart and then it was down hill from there. I first thought her symptoms were all from trauma until I knew something wasn’t right. My heart is so broken , she had a Murmur but it was just a2 but never showed any symptoms of anything. Trauma does a #on any mammal! I want to get another girl but I need to grieve my Angel she was my service dog and the best ever, we were together 24/7 her whole life and what a blessing she was ❤😢. If your still breeding and you don’t have problems with mitral valve disease I would love to talk to you. Are you a member of Westminster kennel club dog shows or the club at all? Do all Cavaliers have issues with loosing teeth? How old is the oldest Cavalier you have had? Thank you for sharing your beautiful Angels 😇 with me . I love these dogs so much 🥰❤️🐶🫶🙏
We are in New York, on Long Island. I don't believe any Cavalier is free of heart disease, but if we can delay the onset of symptoms by careful breeding, they can live a good, long, healthy life. The oldest we ever had was Murphy, who lived to 16 1/2 years old. We are members of the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Club USA, and we also show our dogs in AKC, including Westminster.
@@chaskat35 Thank you 🙏🏻 that’s what I want is for my girl to live a good long life and I must move back to New England where I’m from and live in a suburb where it’s more country 😊🙏🏻✨
Dogs are pack animals, and come from a history of sleeping in dens. They are very comfortable cuddling up tight with each other, whether it's in a confined space like a crate, or on the bed with us.
We put it in about 9 years ago, because I couldn't keep a nice grass lawn with all the wear and tear from the dogs. It cost a small fortune, but it has been more than worth it. No maintenance, always looks good, excellent drainage, and the poops are easy to pick up.
Our property is absolutely securely fenced, so that the dogs can run freely, which they prefer to being walked on lead. The fenced yard is plenty big enough to allow them to get lots of exercise, and take care of their potty needs when necessary. We have a doggie door, which allows them to go outside whenever they want, and it's open to them at all times, unless we are not home and available to supervise them. They do benefit from the socialization they get on little "field trips" to places like shopping at Home Depot, walking around our village, or attending a local dog show. That's something we do regularly - not for exercise, but for making sure that they know how to interact with strangers and new situations.
I don’t understand why Boots gets a treat and his own big comfy bed and the other dogs are stuffed in those way to tiny crates with barely any padding? 😢
Tag is the one who gets the crate all by herself - she is 10 years old, and suffers from mild heart disease. The other 3 are young, and their crate is considerably larger than the one Tag is in. They like to be cuddled up together, because dogs are descended from pack animals that normally sleep in a cramped den.
They actually have a very large room - plus a nice yard - to spend their time in. They are only in crates for their own safety when we can't supervise them, which is a minority of the time.
Dogs are pack animals, and they feel safe when they are cuddled together in a small space. During the day, we leave those crates open, and we always find one or two of them sleeping in one of those “small” crates.
Nein überhaupt nicht. Hunde haben einen Hintergrund als Höhlentiere - sie kuscheln gerne in kleinen Räumen und fühlen sich sicher. Tagsüber lasse ich die Türen der Boxen offen und es gibt immer wieder Hunde, die freiwillig in die Box gehen, um ein Nickerchen zu machen. Auch wenn ich nicht zu Hause bin oder die jungen Hunde nicht beaufsichtigen kann, schützt ein kurzer Aufenthalt in der Box sie davor, in Dinge zu geraten, in die sie nicht hineingehen sollten. Es wäre unverantwortlich von mir, einem jungen Hund zu erlauben, frei im Haus herumzulaufen, wenn ich nicht da sein kann, um ihn zu beschützen.
Not at all. I don't know what your experience is, but I have 40 years with dogs, and I know what they like. They are pack animals, and they feel comfortable and safe in a den-like environment. Please don't criticize unless you have experience and facts to back up your opinions.
Why you keep them in those cages all night long?? Shame!!😠..👎😠 Cavaliers are the MOST sensitive, gentle, and everybody loving dogs! You should treat them better! ❣️❣️❣️❣️
they are adorable and so well trained! I have a ruby cav (2nd cav) and she is so beautiful. I only wish the lean puppy look would last a little longer. I do not think there is ANYTHING as adorable as a cavalier puppy.
So lovely. There's only 1 thing better than having a Cavalier around the home, and that's having FIVE of them!
I don't think the 5th one is his, but STILL! EXTREMELY CUTE!

Beautiful dogs. They have a great life.
We feed our cav breakfast and dinner and he goes out after each meal to “do his business”. He gets to sleep in the bed too 😄🐶
What a lovely life they all have!

Night night babies, bless you all X
Precious!
They are so cute.
Awww your dogs are beautiful!! This was such a fun day in the life video to watch❤️
Thanks for sharing! Where did you get your snoods from?
The only good snoods are handmade. We have a friend who sews them, but if you search on Etsy, you'll find several sources for Cavalier-sized snoods.
Hi o yes they can tell the time. Mine knows tablet time, 5 times a day. Wakes us up for 4am tab. You have beautiful dogs. X
Hi i love your puppies ❤️❤️!!😘
Aw!!! In love!!!
very cute😍😍😍💕💕💕
I’m so in love w Etta and rest of gang! ❤
3 Cavalier-shaped blurs go flying out!
You feed them once a day? Sweet cuties.
Yes - just a small treat in the morning, and a full meal in the evening.
Great to see them so cared for . I notice that there is no outside walk in their day.
Any CKC that I knew were great on less walkers
With our yard, they all get plenty of exercise running around. We try to take them out, especially to a store where they can meet people, but with our numbers, they don't get to do that as often as we'd like.

Would you recommend softening the kibble my cavalier isnt a big eater ? I'm worried about his teeth if he goes to soft
I always add warm water to the kibble for my adult Cavaliers, not so much to soften it as for other reasons. The water aids in digestion, and it also helps to bring out the aroma that they find appetizing.

It's called a snood. The good ones are handmade - look on Etsy, and search for Cavalier snoods.
@@chaskat35 thank you.
Hello, How would a Cavalier cope if you leave for a few hours? Is it best to crate or dog pen train them? Beautiful dogs.
They do fine if you leave them for a few hours, but be prepared for a BIG welcome home when you return. Ours are crate trained from when they are young puppies, so they do well in a crate. Generally, I will put the younger ones (2 years and younger) in crates, but trust the older ones to be free in a single room.
Just curious why Boo gets the bed but Tag the kennel? Your Cavaliers are all beautiful!
Two reasons: 1. They have different personalities - Boo loves to sleep next to us, but Tag is a bit more of a loner, and often seeks out an empty crate to sleep in. 2. My wife Katie developed a strong bond with Boo, and the two of them are pretty much inseparable.
It's just as well it worked out this way, since we only have a queen size bed, and there really isn't enough room for more than one dog!
I suppose only battery hens would appreciate the ampleness of those crates.
You should watch this: czcams.com/video/1wyzFv7vzhY/video.html
Just curious, why does that one dog get a treat and gets to sleep on your bed but not the others?
We simply don't have room for the two of us and all the dogs - it's just a queen size bed. Boo is the best bed dog of them all, so she gets the privilege.

Multiple dogs in a crate? Wow.

Peppoli did learn the left hind kick from Auntie Bootsie!
Did Peppoli also learn to tell when it's dinner time?
When can I move in 😂

I understand your feeling, but there are lots of good reasons why we use crates. Watch this video: czcams.com/video/1wyzFv7vzhY/video.html
Did Etta and Jamba spend some time together? How is Jamba doing? I know you’ve mentioned Bella and not so much of Jamba.
We haven't gotten to bring Etta over to see Jamba yet - I've been a bit under the weather. Perhaps this weekend we can do it.
How come Boo gets to sleep on the bed? Love all ur pups so cute 😍
We only give the older adults freedom to move around while we are asleep, which kind of limits us to Boo and Tag. Tag prefers to sleep in a crate - I often find her napping there during the day. So Boo gets the special privelege.

Where are you? Are you back East or in California? Are your Cavaliers free from mitral valve disease? They are all adorable, I had a Cavalier King Charles And just September had to let her go to Rainbow Bridge🌈 she was only 11 and 3 months but we were Traumatized by someone that triggered her Heart and then it was down hill from there. I first thought her symptoms were all from trauma until I knew something wasn’t right. My heart is so broken , she had a Murmur but it was just a2 but never showed any symptoms of anything. Trauma does a #on any mammal! I want to get another girl but I need to grieve my Angel she was my service dog and the best ever, we were together 24/7 her whole life and what a blessing she was ❤😢. If your still breeding and you don’t have problems with mitral valve disease I would love to talk to you. Are you a member of Westminster kennel club dog shows or the club at all?
Do all Cavaliers have issues with loosing teeth? How old is the oldest Cavalier you have had?
Thank you for sharing your beautiful Angels 😇 with me . I love these dogs so much 🥰❤️🐶🫶🙏
We are in New York, on Long Island. I don't believe any Cavalier is free of heart disease, but if we can delay the onset of symptoms by careful breeding, they can live a good, long, healthy life. The oldest we ever had was Murphy, who lived to 16 1/2 years old.
We are members of the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Club USA, and we also show our dogs in AKC, including Westminster.

Thank you 🙏🏻 that’s what I want is for my girl to live a good long life and I must move back to New England where I’m from and live in a suburb where it’s more country 😊🙏🏻✨
I am sorry for your loss.
I am wondering if a Cavalier King Charles would make a great diabetic service dog?
Etta is a good girl
Doesnt the other dogs get jealous when they see boo on bed? How do u solve that problem?
Dogs are pack animals, and come from a history of sleeping in dens. They are very comfortable cuddling up tight with each other, whether it's in a confined space like a crate, or on the bed with us.
Do you have artificial turf? Do you like it?
We put it in about 9 years ago, because I couldn't keep a nice grass lawn with all the wear and tear from the dogs. It cost a small fortune, but it has been more than worth it. No maintenance, always looks good, excellent drainage, and the poops are easy to pick up.
do they not have to go for walks?
Our property is absolutely securely fenced, so that the dogs can run freely, which they prefer to being walked on lead. The fenced yard is plenty big enough to allow them to get lots of exercise, and take care of their potty needs when necessary. We have a doggie door, which allows them to go outside whenever they want, and it's open to them at all times, unless we are not home and available to supervise them.
They do benefit from the socialization they get on little "field trips" to places like shopping at Home Depot, walking around our village, or attending a local dog show. That's something we do regularly - not for exercise, but for making sure that they know how to interact with strangers and new situations.
Please dont forgot to drink them some water
They always have free access to fresh, clean water.
I don’t understand why Boots gets a treat and his own big comfy bed and the other dogs are stuffed in those way to tiny crates with barely any padding? 😢
Tag is the one who gets the crate all by herself - she is 10 years old, and suffers from mild heart disease. The other 3 are young, and their crate is considerably larger than the one Tag is in. They like to be cuddled up together, because dogs are descended from pack animals that normally sleep in a cramped den.
Una pregunta por qué Boo no duerme con los demás , es simple curiosidad?😘😘
En nuestra cama solo hay espacio para un perro, y Boo es el más confiable de todos para estar suelto durante la noche.
@@chaskat35 I love Boo and I also love how you tell everything.🥰🐶
Please, if possible, provide a small room for them and avoid keeping them in small cages. They are adults and well-behaved.
They actually have a very large room - plus a nice yard - to spend their time in. They are only in crates for their own safety when we can't supervise them, which is a minority of the time.
Those crates are far too small it's just cruel. 😮
Dogs are pack animals, and they feel safe when they are cuddled together in a small space. During the day, we leave those crates open, and we always find one or two of them sleeping in one of those “small” crates.
Entschuldigung; finden Sie den Käfig nicht zu klein??? KATASTROPHE
Nein überhaupt nicht. Hunde haben einen Hintergrund als Höhlentiere - sie kuscheln gerne in kleinen Räumen und fühlen sich sicher. Tagsüber lasse ich die Türen der Boxen offen und es gibt immer wieder Hunde, die freiwillig in die Box gehen, um ein Nickerchen zu machen.
Auch wenn ich nicht zu Hause bin oder die jungen Hunde nicht beaufsichtigen kann, schützt ein kurzer Aufenthalt in der Box sie davor, in Dinge zu geraten, in die sie nicht hineingehen sollten. Es wäre unverantwortlich von mir, einem jungen Hund zu erlauben, frei im Haus herumzulaufen, wenn ich nicht da sein kann, um ihn zu beschützen.
to much dogs in a same cage: terrible Sir ! Terrible!
Not at all. I don't know what your experience is, but I have 40 years with dogs, and I know what they like. They are pack animals, and they feel comfortable and safe in a den-like environment. Please don't criticize unless you have experience and facts to back up your opinions.
Why are they in crates soo much??? Poor dogs

Dogs in cage????!!!! 😢😢😢😢
That’s where they feel most comfortable.
Il cane non si tiene in gabbia😠
Il trasportino viene utilizzato solo quando non possiamo supervisionare direttamente i cani. È per la loro protezione.
Why you keep them in those cages all night long?? Shame!!😠..👎😠 Cavaliers are the MOST sensitive, gentle, and everybody loving dogs! You should treat them better! ❣️❣️❣️❣️

『p』『r』『o』『m』『o』『s』『m』 😢
they are adorable and so well trained! I have a ruby cav (2nd cav) and she is so beautiful. I only wish the lean puppy look would last a little longer. I do not think there is ANYTHING as adorable as a cavalier puppy.
