My one is five years old and she always has been a bit whiny when we go for walks, until we get about halfway round the walk, then she quietens down as she knows she's on the homeward bit.
Is it common in this breed?
Answers:
It sounds like she is making noise because she is excited.
Some dogs do make a lot of noise. Generally, if you respond to their vocal expressions, they rely on them more. The fact that she was hand raised may have contributed to this as the person caring for her probably responded to her whines!
She just has a lot to say about the park!!
No it's not. You really should see your vet.
Cavalier king charles spaniels do suffer with a cranium abnormality which constrict the cerebellum and triggers a disease called: syringomyelia (look for it in wikipedia). This is responsible for chronic neck pain and makes a number of individual of that breed fairly whiny. Pain-killers may be administered. In any way, it isnt normal and you should consult a vet and explain your problem.
Good luck

this breed of dog is not generally any more whiny than other dogs this size. the hesitation and whining could be from a time when you may have not taken the whole walk when she whined. if she does it all the time you may want to take her for a vet visit and get her hips legs and paws checked out. if she only does it on a specific season it could be that she is cold in the winter or the road may be too hot in the summer.
not at all,,, it seems she wasn't socialized properly as a pup and gets way over excited.. keep at it bring her everywhere and get her used to different surroundings
Not generally. I have 2 (aged 4) and the girl is alittle winey if we take time crossing the road but thats it. Maybe she just prefers to be at home. Have you tried her on different walks ??? If you walk her at the same place something migt have scared at before and she remembers it.
Alots of cavs are home lovers and just prefer being at home in familiar surroundings
This is more to the fact that she's just excited about going for her walk and it isn't a trait of her breed or because she was hand raised.
