Meet the breeder

I'm Kristine K., the breeder behind Tsarevich Cavaliers located in Charlotte, NC. We are proud to have some of the finest, most beautiful, reputable and healthiest lines from all over Europe of both cavaliers and Goldens. Before anything, our dogs are our family and we chose the lines very wisely. We aim to produce healthy, beautiful and well-tempered dogs.

Q. & A. with Kristine

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We have grown up raising golden retrievers and our love will forever stand strong for this breed. Cavaliers have always been on our minds and in 2014 we have finally began the beautiful journey of raising cavaliers alongside golden retrievers.

  • What makes your program special?

    Our dogs come from very special European lines. We've have opted to import from Europe because the gene pool out there is much more broad than it is in the US which means less inbreeding and healthier dogs. We love these dogs passionately and will strive to do our best to better the breeds

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our Cavalier King Charles Spaniel puppies include blenheim, ruby, tri-color, and black and tan. Golden Retriever puppies include dark golden, golden, and light golden. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    We had a great experience with Tsarevich Cavaliers. Kristine was very helpful in getting us settled in with our little puppy after getting her home. We have had her now for two weeks. We absolutely adore her. We named her Bella Rose, she fits her name perfectly. We take her for daily walks/runs at the park down the street from us or we take her with us wherever we go after lunch. By the time we get her back home she is exhausted. She loves the sling seat we have installed for her in the back seat of our car. She is already a part of our family. We love her so much. Thank you, Kristine, for all your help
