Cavalier King Charles Spaniel History

History:Cavalier King Charles Spaniels origins are from the King Charles Spaniel, who through selective breeding from the Toy Spaniel was produced to have a more exaggerated head with a great dome and flatter face, possible from the Pug though it is uncertain. Cavaliers were a crossing of the King Charles and the Cocker Spaniel. Their name is from King Charles II who kept a large number of Toy Spaniels. They were a favorite of the aristocracy in the early nineteenth century. A dog called Ann's Son became the model for the first breed standard and in 1945 the Kennel Club granted the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel separate breed registration.
