Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Training

Do you have a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel that needs some training help? Natalie from Crazy Kind Calm dog training can help!

With over 900 dogs trained across the Macedon Ranges, Natalie understands the unique personality and needs that come with this wonderful breed.

Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are gentle, graceful dogs bred purely for companionship. They're sweet-natured and adaptable, thriving on human connection — but their sensitive temperament means they need thoughtful handling.

Common Cavalier King Charles Spaniel traits and training needs

  • Prone to separation anxiety — they were bred to be lap dogs and take that job seriously
  • Can be fearful or anxious in new situations, with unfamiliar people, or loud environments
  • Soft temperament that shuts down quickly with firm corrections
  • May develop resource guarding, particularly of their owner's attention
  • Chase instinct can be triggered by small animals, birds, and even butterflies
  • Prone to submissive urination when excited or nervous

Cavalier owners adore their dog's gentle, loving nature — and rightly so. They're the ultimate companion dog who wants nothing more than to be near you. But if your Cavalier panics when you leave, trembles at loud noises, or has become clingy to the point of distress, that's the sensitivity of the breed showing through. They respond beautifully to calm, positive training that builds their confidence gradually.
