Flash News!!! We are also expecting a Blenheim litter in early May. Both sire and dam are AKC Champion sired. Further information and photos of parents available upon request.
| I have owned Cavaliers since 1982 and have been showing and breeding blenheim and tricolor Cavaliers exclusively since 1990. My emphasis is on breeding for elegance and substance, with special attention to maintaining the lovely temperaments that are so closely associated with this old breed. Few breeders today remember the elegance and beauty of the English Cavaliers of the 1980's, which is what I am striving to maintain. Board certified heart and eye health testing is performed annually on all breeding stock. The maternal line of my Cavaliers has enjoyed good health into their 'teens. I offer a health guarantee on all puppies, who are vaccinated and dewormed appropriately, well socialized and veterinarian checked before leaving home. Puppies are eligible for AKC registration, and they are sold with a health certificate and booklet of care and breed information. I am committed to my puppies throughout their lifetime and offer my support and advice whenever needed.
Below you will find examples of my Cavaliers, present and past. I specialize in tricolors, however often I have a beautiful blenheim or wholecolor puppy available. I breed to show my own, and am very particular as to who I keep for my show and breeding program. The other puppies are offered as pets on spay/neuter agreements to responsible, caring families. I sometimes place show prospects. Potential show owners are screened carefully to ensure that my bloodlines and those of the people who have entrusted me with theirs, will be used responsibly and ethically. |

***Royal Rebellion’s puppies have been placed***
The photos above: Blenheim male puppy with lozenge by Shenandoah Rain Dance and Shenandoah Royal Rebellion. Photos below: Godiva with her litter, and they are sired by Sebastian (a son of Shenandoah Midnight Cowboy). Godiva has one of the prettiest faces I've ever seen on a Cavalier and Sebastian is equally handsome. Some of Godiva’s puppies are still available and ready to go!! A Blenheim girl, Blenheim boy and a show potential tricolor boy are still available. See photos at the top of this web page.

There are several retired Cavaliers who I would like to place in the near future.
A questionnaire, personal interview and visit are required before I decide to place them.

Caprine News!! We had twelve goatlings this past January, 2012. Kidding is so much easier than whelping puppies ;) This is one of our lovely pastures with my new Nubian babies and their mothers from last spring. Below is one of my 2012 bucklings available. I have registered Nubian bucklings and does/doelings for sale from excellent milking and show lines.

Gold Sovereign is now done with his siring and is now living the grand life with another Cavalier in Northern Virginia. His best buddy is a wonderful owner who takes him everywhere. Here are photos of "Jesse", or Gold Sovereign, playing in the snow. |

Other News... I am currently feeding Purina Pro Plan for the present. Some of my dogs are on a raw diet. I am also feeding NuVet Vitamins. It has been a big change for us but the results are worth it. I will change my web site pages to reflect this. My Cavaliers are healthy, happy and the puppies do well on raw food also. I did feed Royal Canin dry food to some of my dogs this winter but I was very disappointed with the results. I intend to stick with my current regimen and add Fromm Salmon dry dog food. I will update this web site with more information on feeding in the near future. In the meantime, go to www.dogsstuff.com to see a list of approved dog food brands. This list is constantly being updated by a knowledgeable pet food store owner. Read her web site thoroughly and familiarize yourself with the dangers of ethoxyquin, a dangerous chemical antioxidant found in fish meal. Know that the FDA does not require pet food makers to list ethoxyquin as an ingredient when the pet food maker buys the fish meal containing ethoxyquin already in it. BEWARE and be sure you are buying a quality food that will not harm your pet. |
