Q. & A. with Shauna
Why did you start breeding?
I grew up on a ranch and have always loved animals. I trained dogs and learned what genetics and personalities make outstanding pets and took that knowledge and put it to work as a breeder.
What makes your program special?
I raise and train all my puppies with puppy culture method. Puppies get a healthy dose of love from 5 kiddos in our home and are exposed to a hectic constantly changing environment in a busy household. This prepares them to enter any situation you put them in with ease and confidence
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Cavapoo puppies are toy size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our Cavalier King Charles Spaniel puppies include blenheim, ruby, tri-color, black and tan, and chocolate. Cavapoo puppies include apricot, black and tan, tri-color, red, and blenheim. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

When I expressed my desire for a puppy but wasn’t prepared for the responsibility, Shauna offered a wise piece of advice: “Once she’s with you, you’ll realize how you ever lived without her.” And she’s right! We’ve had her for a little over a month now, and we couldn’t be happier. She’s truly an exceptional puppy. She’s incredibly calm and doesn’t seem to be bothered by the constant noise of New York City. She adapts very well to her new environment. Shauna has been very helpful throughout the entire process, and you can completely trust her for anything.

Thank you for a wonderful well started Cavapoo puppy! Willow is doing so good with the doggy door and crate that we use at night
She has a cute disposition and loves being around us and our yard.
She’s 10 weeks old already has made herself so comfortable
We just really appreciate the early puppy start you provided

Shauna was such a pleasure to work with! She was incredibly responsive and so helpful answering all of our questions (we are first-time puppy owners) She even was kind enough to send us some additional photos while we were waiting to coordinate delivery.
Our puppy came home to us basically crate trained...she has been sleeping through the night since day 1. She is a wonderful temperament, sweetest little puppy and SO easy to train. We LOVE her so much!
I would highly recommend Shauna and Sunny Hills to anyone!

Shauna was wonderful, she was very responsive and kept us up to date on the puppies. She coordinated their trip to California and made everything easy for us. The puppies are a such a wonderful addition to our family.

We had such a wonderful experience with Shauna and Sunny Hill Puppies! Shauna was quick to respond, very helpful with questions, and has since checked in on how our new friend Ziggy is doing! I’m super impressed with how prepared our little guy came to us- potty training and kennel training has been super easy, thanks to his headstart with Shauna. He’s also been wonderful with our boys (7 and 5) and is just a sweet, silly pup. I highly recommend Sunny Hill Puppies⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
