Peta is urging King Charles to publicly disown the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel breed, arguing its royal ties fuel irresponsible breeding and cause severe health issues like paralysis and skull-brain mismatches. While the breed’s history with royalty spans centuries — even named after King Charles II — the current monarch prefers Jack Russells and has rehomed two of them. Critics, including MP Sir John Hayes and the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Club, reject the call, insisting the breed’s popularity doesn’t equate to harm and that many Cavaliers live healthy, long lives.
