OUR HEALTH COMMITMENT

Beautiful Cavaliers begin with healthy Cavaliers.

Beautiful Cavaliers begin with healthy Cavaliers.

Responsible breeding begins long before a puppy is born. Each decision considers health, temperament, structure, pedigree, and the long-term wellbeing of the dogs we love.

We believe in clear conversations and making applicable health information available to prospective puppy families.

PEDIGREE BEFORE PAIRING

Before any pairing, we study the health history, longevity, temperament, and structure behind each dog. This context helps us interpret individual clearances thoughtfully and plan with the next generation in mind.

CARDIAC HEALTH

Protecting the Cavalier heart

Our breeding dogs receive cardiac examinations with a board-certified veterinary cardiologist. Ongoing heart evaluations are an important part of responsible Cavalier breeding.

EYE HEALTH

Healthy eyes, lifelong companionship

Our breeding dogs receive eye examinations with a board-certified veterinary ophthalmologist to help screen for inherited and other eye concerns.

HIPS

Sound, comfortable movement

Our breeding dogs receive hip evaluations through OFA or another recognized orthopedic screening program, supporting thoughtful decisions about soundness.

PATELLAS

Healthy knees, sound movement

Our Cavaliers receive veterinary evaluations for patellar luxation, with results documented through OFA when applicable.

BEYOND THE BASICS

We don’t breed simply because we can.

We don’t breed simply because we can.

We follow the core recommended Cavalier health clearances—cardiac, eye, hip, and patella evaluations—while also considering family history, longevity, temperament, structure, and known concerns across a pedigree. We continue learning as veterinary research and breed-health recommendations evolve.

No health screening can guarantee that a dog will never develop an inherited condition. Testing helps guide more informed breeding decisions and reduce risk, but it cannot eliminate every possibility. We’re committed to honest conversations and sharing applicable records with families.
