Meet the breeder

I'm Sam G., the breeder behind CaliCavaliers located in Fresno, CA. We decided to start breeding to share the best possible puppies with excellent personalities, temperament, and most of all health! Each of our dogs has brought so much happiness to us throughout their lives. We want to do our part to produce wonderful, healthy dogs that can bring other people joy as well, and we strive to provide each of our puppies with loving homes where they can live happy lives. All of our adults have been health screened and live happy, healthy lives in our home in the California Valley.

Q. & A. with Sam

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We have been breeding for 18 years, growing up around animals and a huge network of friendships within the dog showing world. We decided to have a litter of puppies the first time to keep a pup back and from there we were hooked! We take pride in producing healthy puppies for selected families to enjoy.
  • What makes your program special?

    Health is upmost important to us, breeding from only healthy and happy well tempered and mannered dogs with the future of the breed at our focus.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include blenheim, ruby, black and tan, and tri-color. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
