Laura K.

Breeder of Cavalier King Charles Spaniels

Meet the breeder

I'm Laura K., the breeder behind Killian's Kennels LLC located in Wisconsin. We just adore this breed and can't wait to share our love for them with you! We are passionate breeders and are dedicated to maintaining responsible breeding practices. We do all that we can to make sure our pups get the best care and go to the best homes!

Q. & A. with Laura

  • Why did you start breeding?

    There have been breeding pairs of dogs in my home since childhood. I personally started breeding my own Black Labs over 20 years ago. After our last breeding Female crossed the rainbow bridge, I made the move to the Cavalier King Charles. I knew I always loved this breed but never knew just how much love they give back.

  • What makes your program special?

    I test all my breeding dogs for genetic diseases, and chose my breeding pairs accordingly.

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

    Our puppies include ruby and black and tan. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

Breeder-Reported Testing

Excellent level

Killian's Kennels LLC 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 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.

  • 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).
