I would be reluctant to sell to a couple that worked very long hours As puppies need to have feeds in the middle of the day and I would think get terribly bored alone all day Yes some will just sleep the day away others will learn to bark and become a nuisance to their owners and neighbours

1. What is my relationship with the breed? (ie breeder, first time owner etc) I am a breeder / exhibitor of 10 years but have owned the breed for 24 years 2. Where and why was the breed first developed? The breed was first developed in the UK and they were bred to be a companion dog 3. How common is it in Australia? The Cavalier is very common in Australia I think tothe breeds detriment in some cases 4. What is the average lifespan? 10 - 15 yrs of age though sadly due to MVD quite a few die before they reach this age 5. What is the general temperament/personality? They are a happy friendly and loving breed very affectionate , they shouldnt show any aggression or be timid 6. How much daily exercise is needed for the average adult? Like humans this can vary some are real couch potaoes and others love going for a long run 7. Is it a breed that a first time dog owner could easily cope with? Yes I think they are perfect for a first time dog owner 8. Can solo dogs of this breed easily occupy themselves for long periods? They can however I would recommend if your dog is going to be alone for long periods that you get two rather then one to keep it company 9. How much grooming is required? A brush a couple of times a week with particular attention paid to just behind the ears 10. Is it too boisterous for very small children or for infirm people (unless the dog is well trained)? No they arent too boisterous , Children should be watched with any dog regardless of breed . 11. Are there any common hereditary problems a puppy buyer should be aware of? MVD is the most prevalent , patellas, Syringomyelia (SM) is not common here in Australia, Eyes ( cataracts) 12. When buying a puppy, what are the things you should ask of the breeder? (eg what health tests have been done (if applicable) and what is an acceptable result to those tests so the buyer has an idea of what the result should be) Heart testing of parents of the puppy by Cardiologist would be a must to ask for with no murmur being detected, An Opthamoligist can check eyes and certify the parents to be clear of eye problems ( generally not done annually as not needed for the problem that Cavaliers are most prone to i.e cataracts) Patellas are checked by a vet and there is no certification for this
