I'm Carol Lynn J., the breeder behind Bella Fleur Cavaliers located in Caledonia, MI. With only having a few litters a year, we keep a waiting list for our puppies as we are extremely selective in our breeding program. Due to concentrating on pedigrees with generations of health testing and longevity, many of our Cavaliers are imported.
While our Cavaliers are actively shown in AKC conformation, they are treasured members of our family and sleep in our beds at night.
Q. & A. with Carol Lynn
Why did you start breeding?
Dogs have always been a part of my life since childhood. I have been showing in AKC since I was 7 years old. Our Cavaliers are cherished members of our family and valued bed warmers.
What makes your program special?
Our Cavaliers carry all clearances required by the Cavalier parent club for an OFA CHIC, as well as MRI and heart echo's. We are extremely selective in our breeding program. Our Cavaliers are imported or carry generations of pedigrees that reflect our stringent clearance requirements.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are blenheim. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
