Breed Information

Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are delightfully affectionate, playful and intelligent little dogs that repay their owners with an endearing devotion.

Cavaliers make excellent pets as they are very happy, loving and devoted dogs. It would be difficult to find a small dog with a more wonderful temperament. As a pet and companion, the Cavalier has NO equal!

Cavaliers have a natural coat that requires no trimming, long silky ears, and large, soulful eyes that can melt a heart of stone! More than one person has described them as looking like puppies all of their lives!

As a breeder of these lovely dogs, you can imagine the stories I have heard along with the many requests for color and sex of a new puppy.

The most popular request for a puppy goes something like this.....
"We want a female"
I in turn reply, "were you planning on breeding your girl?"
No, but we only want a female.
I ask, "Why"
"I don't know we have always had females."

Does this sound familiar? If so, I feel as a breeder it is some what my responsibility to help to educate the average pet owner that "Little Boys Make Great Pets too!!"

While I love my girls, my boys have always been the first ones for attention and the last ones to leave. Over the years people have been under the impression that male dogs display "Alpha" behaviors such as humping or lifting their legs, and that females are easier to get along with and less work. I find this amusing and sad at the same time.

These are such sweet little dogs, but at times dominance problems do arise. This is mainly between the girls. There is always a Queen "B" as I affectionately call her. All bow down to her even my boys. When another female tries to show any type of dominance, intervention is needed. The thing about females is they never forget!

Cavaliers are available in four colors:

  • Blenheim - red and white
  • Tri - black and white with tan highlights
  • Black and Tan - mostly black with tan markings
  • Ruby - solid red
