Meet the breeder

I'm Gina S., the breeder behind Velvet Paws Cavapoos located in Centerton, AR. We raise F1b Cavapoos in our home with our children. With deep roots in Cavalier and Poodle lines, we focus on health, temperament, and hypoallergenic qualities. Our pups are raised with love, playtime, and cuddles—ideal for families and those needing low-shedding companions.

Q. & A. with Gina

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We started with one Cavalier and a Toy Poodle, then fell in love with their puppies. My children needed emotional support animals, and Cavapoos were a perfect fit. Their sweet, calm nature and hypoallergenic coats led us to raise them for others seeking the same joy.

  • What makes your program special?

    We specialize in F1b Cavapoos, raised in-home with daily socialization, love, and care. Our parent dogs come from lines we know personally. Pups are never kenneled—they grow up around kids, cuddles, and everyday family life, setting them up to be confident, loving companions.

  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our puppies are toy size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.

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

    Our puppies include red, cream, chocolate, brown, blenheim, and apricot. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

Getting a puppy from Gina

Gina has been certified by Good Dog’s screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you’re ready, reach out to ask about the puppies or anything else on your mind. You’ll get to know each other through messaging, phone, or video and pay securely, all on Good Dog.

After buyers complete the application and screening process, Gina partners with them to find the best puppy match.

“We take great care in helping each puppy find the right family. Once families are screened and approved, we work with them throughout the process to consider their preferences, lifestyle, and what they are looking for in a puppy. Some families prefer to choose earlier based on appearance, while others like to wait until we can begin seeing more temperament and personality traits. As the puppies grow, their personalities continue to shine and develop, and we do our best to guide families with honest observations along the way. Our goal is for each family to feel confident and supported while keeping the puppy’s long-term success and well-being at the center of the matching process.”

    Gina was a tremendous partner in adopting our new puppy, Remy! Her care and communication helped make this a smooth process for both us and the puppy. We were well educated and prepared to bring Remy home and integrate her into our lives. Remy received a glowing report from our vet - a testament to how Gina cares for the puppies while they’re in her home. Will definitely recommend her to anyone looking to adopt a Cavapoo! Thanks, Gina!!

    Gina has been so wonderful through this whole process. She is always quick to respond and cares so much! I really appreciated the weekly updates/pics before we picked up our pup. The puppy we brought home is sweet, friendly, and perfectly healthy. She has had no problems being around my young kids or my other dog. We love her already! I can 100% recommend Gina and I know we'll be back for another puppy in the future 🙂

    Gina and the boys met me will my beautiful Joy yesterday. Gina had us so well prepared for the 2 1-2 hour trip on back to home. Joy rode in my lap all the way home, cuddling and sleeping. She did get car sick a couple of times on the way home but Gina had prepared me to have paper towels in case that happened. She gave me a baggie of the dogfood Joy has been eating and a piece of blanket with Mama’s scent on it. Initially when we got on the road Joy did start crying but calmed quickly when I put the scented blanket under her little head as she laid up on my chest. When we arrived home I put her in her Xpen and put the kennel in there as well. I leave the kennel door open for her to come and go as she pleases. We both took a nap after arriving home then we had a playtime and cuddling time after we woke up. When it was bedtime I put her kennel on the floor beside my bed. She cried momentarily then snuggled up to her puppy buddy. I had turned on the heartbeat and put the warmer in it. She woke one time during the night, briefly when I got up to go to the bathroom. She went back to sleep and didn’t fuss anymore. She slept the rest of the night and didn’t even stir when I got up for the day was excited to get up when I went in a couple of hours later and she was still curled up with her buddy in her kennel. She was nice and warm when I got her out of the kennel. She loves her buddy and I would highly recommend it to other new puppy parents. I am so thankful for Gina’s quick replies and thorough answers to questions these past weeks while waiting for Joy came to her forever home. I asked lots of questions and Gina was always quick to respond. It is very apparent Joy came from a family with lots of interaction from Gina’s boys. I want all of them to know how much I appreciate the love and care they gave to Joy. They have been a great start to her life and my life with a dog. I could not have found a better breeder family! I am truly thankful for them being so patient when I asked questions and sharing this beautiful puppy with me.

    Gina and her family did an amazing job with Coco!!! The process was very smooth since day 1. Gina sent weekly updates and answered any question or concern I had. Coco is the sweetest dog ever. She loves her naps and cuddling in my arms. I can tell she has been around children because she is very gentle and loving. I will definitely recommend Velvet Paws to anyone looking for a fur best friend!!!

    I cannot say enough good things about Gina and our whole process of getting Lucy. From the initial FaceTime meeting to the day we picked her up Gina kept us informed consistently and was so responsive. When we picked Lucy up we could tell right away that she came from such a loving home, and she transitioned seamlessly into our family. Lucy hasn’t had a single accident since being home with us, sleeps through the night, and plays with our kids and other pups so well. I’m so grateful for Gina and how much care went into getting Lucy ready to come home. We’ve truly been so blessed by our new sweet puppy.
