Annie J.

Breeder of Cavalier King Charles Spaniels

Meet the breeder

I'm Annie J., the breeder behind Jones Grove Puppies located in Walnut Grove, MO. We are a small, in-home breeding program where we prioritize giving each dog and puppy the best care that we can. We cherish our parents as pets and want to share the love of a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel with others. We train and evaluate our puppies from birth to be the best for you!

Q. & A. with Annie

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My family bred and trained bird dogs for hunting my whole childhood. This is where I fell in love with Spaniels - but then I met the Cavalier King Charles. Those sweet dispositions and those eyes! When I found out that they make excellent therapy dogs, but they have some health problems (like all purebred doggos) I wanted to breed them to be the absolute healthiest possible. So, that's what I do.

  • What makes your program special?

    We do more health testing than is necessary, but what really sets us apart is the fact that we train from day 3 of their little lives. We use puppy curriculum to make them the best, most ready for your family. We also do temperament tests so that when you choose your puppy, you can know you have the one most aligned with what you're looking for. We wait to place until we know their personalities.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies are ruby. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

Parent health testing

Breeder-Reported Testing

Excellent level

Jones Grove Puppies 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).
