I'm cavalier l., the breeder behind Kristin’s cavaliers located in Lincoln, CA. I raise all of my dogs with love in my home. I have high expectations for my pups and strive to put each one into a loving family. My goal is to produce quality puppies that are structurally sound, healthy, intuitive, and have wonderful temperaments. As a breeder, I feel a sense of responsibility to prioritize each of my puppies’ overall health and temperament and to ensure that they are loved and well cared for before joining their forever homes.
Q. & A. with cavalier
Why did you start breeding?
I originally started my breeding venture with golden retrievers. We had the most amazing girl and wanted to be able to provide families with the same loving, loyal family pet that we had. That was 13 years ago! We have loved every moment of the experience from the beginning to now. The dogs and their babies are our family.
What makes your program special?
I would like to believe that the love and support I give all my adult dogs and their puppies make a great and wonderful experience for all puppy buyers when they are looking for their next furry member of the family. The puppies are acclimated to all household sounds, other animals, and most importantly, my grandchildren whom they adore. The babies are given special attention and cuddles daily.
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.
