Meet the breeder

I'm Charity T., the breeder behind Whispering Pines Cavaliers located in Idaho City, ID. We raise our Cavalier King Charles Spaniel puppies with love and care, focusing on health, temperament, and socialization. Cavaliers are known for their sweet, gentle nature, and we make sure each puppy is well-prepared for family life through lots of hands-on attention and early experiences. Our priority is raising happy, healthy puppies that grow into affectionate lifelong companions.

Q. & A. with Charity

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I have always wanted to have puppies since I was a child. And then be coming a veterinary technician. I wanted to produce healthy, beautiful puppies. So things immediately didn’t work out, but eventually, we got Winnie who met all of our standards and passed our health testing. And searched for us that did the same and here we are. We are excited to grow while staying small enough that all of our dogs are still pets.

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

    Our puppies include blenheim and tri-color. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

We begin potty training and kennel training, and each puppy goes home with their first vaccines, a vet health letter, and regular deworming. Families also receive a starter bag of food and a special go-home bag with goodies to help with the transition. The care, time, and heart we put into every puppy ensures they are healthy, happy, and ready to be your perfect companion. Deposites are non-refundable, however we can transfer to future puppies or another puppy from the same litter.”
