Getting a puppy from Dorothy
Dorothy has been certified by Good Dog's screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you're ready to reach out, feel free to ask any questions about the breed, their program, or specific puppies.

Price
"Meadowlake cavaliers are sold with limited registrations and spay/neuter agreements. They are sent home with copies of the parents’ health testing, a well puppy vet exam, vaccination records and a handbook of care and instructions. Meadowlake cavaliers are dual registered with the AKC and CKCSC, USA. Once my puppies are at least a month old, I begin to accept deposits on the available puppies in the litter. This is after we have had a visit to my home, or an interview, my puppy questionnaire is completed and my sale agreement is reviewed."

Dorothy may provide a written contract or health guarantee when you purchase a puppy.
