Meet the breeder

I'm Theresa O., the breeder behind Heartland Cavaliers located in Otsego, MN. We breed and raise quality Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. They are loved and cuddled daily by my husband and I and our 5 children! We strive to raise puppies that are healthy and happy. We treasure each puppy and give them constant love and affection! Each of our dogs are a part of the family!

Q. & A. with Theresa

  • Why did you start breeding?

    Ever since I left the veterinary field I missed taking care of clients pets. I came to the realization that I still could do that from my home and with my children, but in just a different kind of way! By giving puppies a good start and sending them off to loving homes.

  • What makes your program special?

    I strive to provide happy healthy puppies! We do all the recommended health testing. But above all I think our dogs truly have the best life! We live on a farm with lots of room to run and play and go on daily golf cart rides!:) And in the summer we love to spend most of our time at the cabin! To play at the beach and go for long wilderness walks! Our dogs are very happy…and they are so lovable!❤️

  • 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.
