Is a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Puppy a good fit for Dug?

Two things decide this, and neither is the breed itself: what the housing looks like and what the weather does. Most homes in Dug come with their own ground, so a medium-sized breed is comfortable in the space a town home usually offers. And since summers are long and intense, so heat management is the single biggest priority, the daily routine ends up mattering more than the floor space. A light summer trim (for double-coated breeds, never shave to the skin) helps comfort.

Which kind of pet suits Dug

The purchase price is the smaller part of the commitment. Budget for vaccination boosters, routine vet visits, food, grooming and occasional treatment.
