A: Averages at 9-11 years but many live into their teens. A: They want to please you most of all which makes then generally very easy to train. This breed is highly intelligent which is also a plus for training! Cavaliers Enjoy anything as long as they are doing it with you, obedience training Included. A: A few essentials, like a leash, brush, collar, name tag, soft bed, feeding dishes and don't forget, some safe puppy toys! Grooming Needs: Bathing, Brushing and Nail Clipping are about all there is to meeting your Cavalier's Grooming needs. Proper Ear Care is very important. Ears need to be dried well after baths or swimming, or the moistness can become a breeding ground for yeast and other infections.
