Meet the breeder
I'm Susan M., the breeder behind Toledo Bend Cavaliers located in Hemphill, TX. Our pups aren't pets, they're family members! Born and raised in the home, all dogs are microchipped, vaccinated and both parents have been fully DNA tested to ensure the best health.
Q. & A. with Susan
Why did you start breeding?
Growing up, my mom bred Collies and Pomeranians, but the first pups I ever bred were my two Cocker Spaniels, Sam and Lola in 2006. Being a stay at home mom allowed me to give them the full attention and care they required. I took a break after rejoining the workforce and did not start breeding again until I retired from the state in 2024.What makes your program special?
Our breeding program is special because of the extreme level of care we have for our babies. Before beginning the breeding process, we made sure the parents, Percy and Willeaux, were in the best possible shape and had several tests ran to ensure perfect health for them and their future pups. We do not breed for profit, but to share the love and companionship these pups have to offer.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are blenheim. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
