English Toy Spaniel
English Toy Spaniels are the ultimate lap dogs, as they love to sit by their owners’ side. They are sweet, shy, easygoing and affectionate to their owners and those they are familiar with. They make a wonderful companion for the elderly.
The King Charles Spaniel is a small, sturdy, square breed with a deep, pug nose that is black with very well open nostrils, a well-defined stop, and dome-shaped skull. The teeth should be slightly undershot. The have large, dark round eyes with a sweet expression.
Their soft, silky coat is well feathered and comes in four colors varieties: King Charles (black & tan), Ruby (solid red, sometimes with a few white hairs or small white patch on the chest), Blenheim (white with red markings, often with a red “thumb print” centered on the top of the head), and Prince Charles (tri-color: white with black & tan markings). The tail is customarily docked.
