I'm David & Cara P., the breeder behind Red Skye Puppies located in Republic, MO. Our puppies are raised in our home with lots of love as part of our family.

Q. & A. with David & Cara
Why did you start breeding?
We started breeding Cavaliers ten years ago when we fell in love with their affectionate & sweet personalities. Three years ago, we had our first litter of Cavapoos & instantly fell in love with the sweet disposition they got from the Cavalier & intelligence from the poodle. Today, we breed both Cavaliers & Cavapoos with the occasional Poodle litter & cannot imagine doing anything else!What makes your program special?
Our dogs are much more than just breeding dogs to us- they are very important members of our family! They live in our home with us & spend their days getting lots of walks, playing & snuggling. We raise our puppies so they get exposed to many situations & sounds in addition to the ENS, ESI & Puppy Culture protocols that we follow to raise the healthiest dogs with the best possible temperaments.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our Cavapoo puppies include toy and miniature sizes. Poodle puppies are miniature size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our Cavapoo puppies include blenheim, tri-color, sable, black and white, black and tan, red, cream, black, and apricot. Poodle puppies include apricot, black, red, parti, and phantom. Cavalier King Charles Spaniel puppies include blenheim, ruby, black and tan, and tri-color. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Litter and program updates
David & Cara P.
Program update on 29 Apr •…Our sweet Willow is due in two weeks! We are so excited to welcome her litter. The vet estimated 7-8 puppies via ultrasound, and she is growing every day! Her waitlist is now open, and we are currently accepting applications. The puppies should be ready to go home around July 4th, maturing around 12-15 pounds fully grown. We are expecting a variety of coat colors including apricot, red, Blenheim, black, black & white, Merle and others.
David & Cara P.
Litter update on 28 Apr •…Happy 3 weeks old to this little fella! 💚 He is our last Cavapoo puppy still searching for his forever family and will be ready to go home end of May/ beginning of June. His eyes & ears are now open which means he is starting to perk up to our voices, lift his head and wobble around to find the milk bar. Our 17 month old absolutely loves having him snuggle in her lap while she gives gentle kisses and pets. He is from one of our smallest litters and should mature around 12-15 pounds +/- as an adult with a handsome black wavy low-nonshedding coat. He also has some nice white markings on his chin, chest and back paws.

Litter update on 22 Apr •…Happy two weeks old to Kona’s sweet babies! We still have two reservations open: 🖤 Sweet Blenheim Black Collar Male 💚 Handsome Black Green Collar Male These pups should mature around 12/13 pounds +/- fully grown and have that quintessential wavy low-nonshedding Cavapoo coat. Raised with tons of love in our family home, these babies are getting ENS, ESI and tons of snuggles daily. This week should include the opening of their eyes and the start of them beginning to hear. Their first sounds will almost undoubtedly be “Puppy! Puppy! Puppy!” from our 17 month old. 🩷

Program update on 14 Mar •…We had pregnancy ultrasounds done this week for our expecting mamas, and we should be having an estimated 11 little Cavapoos joining us next month! These babies will be our smallest size puppies around 12-15 ish pounds give or take at maturity. We should be expecting a rainbow of colors including reds, apricots, blenheims, merles, blacks, black and whites, etc. We do have a waitlist for our puppies, so if you are interested in potentially reserving a puppy from one of these litters, please do not hesitate to reach out!
David & Cara P.
Program update on 19 Feb •…Vet visits have gotten a lot more fun for the puppies since their emotional support human has gotten a little bigger and can provide all the pets, hugs and kisses they could ever want! Raising puppies has always been such a joy for our family, but watching them interact with our daughter has made it even more special. It’s also been a great way to expose the puppies to young children from an early age since most of our puppies go to homes with families. ❤️

Cavalier King Charles Spaniel
About Willow
Willow is our super sweet AKC Blenheim Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. She has a super gentle and mild temperament which makes her a wonderful mom and companion to our toddler. She has that quintessential Cavalier love, attentiveness and expression. She is a third generation mama in our program! Her mama is our Kona, and her grandfather is our foundation sire, Duke. Because of this, we have deep insight into her pedigree, family lines and generational health testing. Duke is still heart clear at almost 8 years old passing his OFA heart clearance and exceeding the mitral valve breeding protocol recommendations. Winona, her mama, her sire, her grandsire and many other relatives have all had OFA health testing and genetic testing for breed relevant conditions. Her father, too, had a passing OFA heart clearance when he retired from breeding. Because of this, we know that Willow comes from heart healthy lines and will not pass anything genetic onto her puppies that we can prevent. We are so excited to have her in our program and cannot wait to see the puppies she produces!

About Kona
Kona is our beautiful and sweet AKC Blenheim Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. She is about 12-13 pounds as an adult right in the perfect AKC weight range. She is extremely loving and enjoys being a lap dog. She has a very gentle and sweet temperament. She comes from Champion lines and has had extensive DNA testing completed for over 230+ genetic diseases as well as OFA health testing to ensure she has the healthiest puppies possible. She is still heart clear at over 3 years of age and her sire, Duke, is our stunning Blenheim Cavalier stud who is still heart clear at almost 8 years old exceeding the Mitral Valve Standard of Breeding Protocol and hopefully passing on their genes for good heart health to their puppies.

About Dutton
Dutton is our gorgeous AKC Blenheim Cavalier King Charles stud. We searched long and hard for a puppy to replace our foundational sire who is getting older. When we saw Dutton, we knew that he would be the perfect choice to add some genetic diversity into our program and improve our lines. He is within the breed standard weight of a Cavalier at 18 pounds, has excellent confirmation, comes from Champion and Grand Champion import lines, is DNA clear for any genetic issues that Cavaliers are known for and has passed his OFA health testing. In addition to his stunning pedigree and health testing, he is the sweetest boy with a great temperament. He loves everyone, enjoys to play fetch in the yard, loves cuddles on the couch and has that quintessential Cavalier personality that everyone wants. We feel so blessed to have him as part of our program and cannot wait to share his show career and future babies with you!

David and Cara were exactly what I was looking for, with whelping pens nearby, to ex pens of puppies in the house, to the family emphasis. It was easy to learn about them from information on Good Dog , their Facebook page and other sources on line. They were very prompt in answering questions and keeping me up to date on Latke’s progress. They were helpful and kind throughout the process The handoff at the airport was easy and David came prepared to answer all of my questions and to provide all the information that I needed. Latke is sweet, confident and so very loved! caption on photos says 3 months, but she is only 8 weeks.

We had a great experience with David and Cara at Red Skye Puppies and have a wonderful puppy, Joy, who has settled right into our home. David and Cara were easy to work with and great with communicating as we worked through all the logistics. Most importantly, our new puppy was happy, playful, and sweet from the very first day, which let me know she has been well cared for and loved while with David and Cara.

David and Cara with Red Skye Puppies were absolutely wonderful to work with. They were incredibly thorough and took the time to answer all of my questions, which made the entire process feel easy and reassuring. They even met us halfway to personally deliver our puppy, which was such a thoughtful and appreciated touch. We’ve had our Cavapoo for almost two months now and he is truly perfect. He is healthy, happy, and such a joy! I highly recommend Red Skye Puppies!

David & Cara were awesome. They communicated very well and answered all of my questions. You can tell they truly care and put lots of work into ensuring their puppies are well taken care of from birth until Go Home and even after! I was very pleased, and if I should get another Cavapoo puppy in the future, I would absolutely go with them again! We love our little Bodie already!
