Q. & A. with Connie
Why did you start breeding?
I became interested in Cavalier King Charles Spaniels a decade ago, and after acquiring a beautiful bitch from European lines, began breeding them 2 years later. My puppies are beloved in their homes, both as companion dogs, and also successful show dogs.
What makes your program special?
My puppies are whelped raised in my home, in a mini-pack environment. They are well socialized, fed a raw food diet for optimal health, nurtured for emotional and physical wellbeing, and carefully observed for personality traits to enhance placement into their new families.
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.
