Meet the breeder

I'm Elise J., the breeder behind Southern Charm Cavapoos located in Locust Grove, GA. Southern Charm Cavapoos is dedicated to raising the perfect addition to your family with emphasis combing the best of the health, temperament and personality traits of both the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and the Miniature Poodle. BOTH Sire and Dam have been EMBARK tested for any genetic health problems and are CLEAR. Both breeds are known for their companionship, loyalty, and gentleness. They also get along well with children and other dogs. Be assured that your puppy will be well socialized by the time you meet. They are raised in my home with constant care and handling. Be assured they will be “lap and cuddle ready” for their forever home!

Q. & A. with Elise

  • Why did you start breeding?

    When I got my first Cavaliers (its almost impossible to have just one!) my friends and family all wanted one so on a limited basis, I managed to have a litter or two for the next 18 years - and all placed though AKC or "word of mouth"! After reading and hearing about the Cavapoos, I recently decided to breed my female Cavalier to a magnificent miniature poodle and am so incredibly proud of my first litter!
  • What makes your program special?

    My main concerns revolve around health and temperament. Before breeding, the Sire and Dam were EMBARK tested for any genes that indicate a genetic abnormality or inherited health issue. Be assured that by the time you meet the puppies will be well socialized! This includes exposure to other dogs, all ages of children, loud sudden noises, the vacuum, and the like. Since they live in my home, there is a lot of playtime and snuggles individually and together. In all, I strive to ensure that you will have the best experience as possible with the new member of your forever family!
  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our puppies are miniature size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

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

    They live in my home.

    Elise was so lovely to work with! It was apparent from our first interaction with her that she truly cared about these puppies. Our sweet little pup has the best disposition, and to me, that shows he was given a lot of love during the first ten weeks of his life. Elise was also available to answer questions. The first few days we brought our little guy home, I had a few, and she promptly answered them. I really appreciated her kindness—she is a gem of a person! We are thrilled with the newest member of our family and I think a large part of this is due to the amazing breeder, Elise!!

    From my first phone call to Elise to the time we picked up Nessa….It has truly been a pleasure. Elise took the time to talk to me about the breed and explain the history which I found very fascinating. She takes pride in her puppies and their lineage. Elise was kind and thoughtful from the very beginning and always available to send a picture or respond to an email. I think what sold me was knowing that she raises these puppies in her home and given Elise’s personality, I knew they would have the best preparation available! After we picked up Nessa, Elise asked that we send photos and if we have any questions whatsoever to please let her know… A woman dedicated to her pups💕🐾
