Health Information

Congenital and Genetic Conditions found with greater than average frequency in the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel (point to name for description):
This is presented solely as a starting point for you to learn and ask questions about the breed. This information is NOT to be used to diagnose, evaluate, or treat any condition whatsoever. For specific information, consult your veterinarian. The above diseases and conditions are found with a higher-than-average frequency in the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. These conditions may or may not be severe, and may or may not be hereditary. Some conditions may actually be "normal" for the breed, such as alopecia in the hairless breeds; some may be intrinsic to the breed due to its physiology, such as skin fold dermatitis in the Pug, Bulldog, and Shar-Pei; some may be related to care and nutrition; and some may be strictly genetic.
The best source of additional and more detailed information on these conditions is a veterinarian, breed club, or knowledgeable breeder.
