Meet the breeder

I'm Kristen K., the breeder behind Kelley Cavaliers located in Plymouth, WI. Health, Temperament and Structure are my main focuses of my kennel. All Dogs live in house and are raised with puppy culture. Cavaliers are my passion, and I am deeply committed to the mission of preserving this beloved breed while continually improving its overall health, temperament, and breed type.

Q. & A. with Kristen

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I always knew this was what I wanted to do. After my service in the Army, I welcomed my first Cavalier. Although he was not a breeding dog, he was instrumental in helping me learn and develop my skills as both a groomer and trainer.
  • What makes your program special?

    I am dedicated to setting puppies up for success from the very beginning, with early potty training, grooming introduction, and crate training. My dogs are fully health tested and proven in AKC conformation.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

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

    They live in my home.

    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.

    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.

  • Degenerative Myelopathy (DM; SOD1A), Episodic Falling Syndrome (EFS), Dry Eye Curly Coat Syndrome (CKSID)
