Q. & A. with Aubrey

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My journey with the cavalier began at a young age, growing up alongside this extraordinary breed and developing a lifelong appreciation for their beauty, companionship, and character. As the need for responsible preservation breeders continues to grow, my goal is to honor the breed through ethical practices, health testing, and producing cavaliers that represent the qualities we cherish.
  • What makes your program special?

    What makes our program special is our dedication to preserving the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel through ethical, thoughtful breeding. We focus on health, temperament, structure, and breed type, with show evaluation, MRI screening for Syringomyelia, and active involvement in the breed community. Our goal is to produce Cavaliers that honor the past and protect the future of this treasured breed.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

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

    They live in my home.

Getting a puppy from Aubrey

Aubrey has been certified by Good Dog’s screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you’re ready, reach out to ask about the puppies or anything else on your mind. You’ll get to know each other through messaging, phone, or video and pay securely, all on Good Dog.

Aubrey partners with buyers to find the best match as the puppies develop and their personalities take shape. Typically, matches are finalized when the puppies reach about 9 weeks old.

“As a preservation-focused show breeder, I reserve the right to first pick of each litter to evaluate puppies as they mature and determine which puppy best fits our breeding program. Because structure, temperament, and overall quality develop over time, pet families will be matched after evaluations are complete. We appreciate your patience as we make thoughtful placements that are best for each puppy.”

Breeder-Reported Testing

Excellent level

Cavaliers of House Northup reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for Cavalier King Charles Spaniels.

  • Hip Dysplasia

    Hip testing reduces the chance of passing down hip dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause hip pain and the eventual loss of the function of the hip joint.

  • Eye Certification (CAER, registered with OFA)

    Eye testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide range of hereditary eye illnesses including retinal dysplasia, lens luxation, and glaucoma, which can cause impared vision or blindness.

  • Cardiac Evaluation (registered with OFA)

    Heart testing reduces the chance of passing down congenital heart disease, which can cause a range of symptoms ranging from trouble exercising to heart failure.

  • Patellar Luxation

    Knee testing reduces the chance of passing down Patellar Luxation, which results in the kneecap becoming displaced or dislocated and can cause mild to severe joint pain.

  • Syringomyelia (MRI)

    A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.

  • DNA Disease Panel

    Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
