All About Us
Welcome to Cavaliers of Healdsburg. We are a family-run breeding program dedicated to raising healthy, happy Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. Our mission is to produce long-living, even-tempered companions that bring joy to their families.
Our puppies are raised in a loving home environment, surrounded by family from day one. We follow the Puppy Culture and BAB curriculum to ensure our puppies have the best start in life. Early socialization is a cornerstone of our program; we expose puppies to a variety of sights, sounds, and experiences to build their confidence. Litter box and crate training begin as soon as they become mobile, making outdoor potty training easier for new owners.
Every breeding dog is a cherished member of our family. Unlike many breeders, we do not rehome our dogs after they’ve had a certain number of litters. Through our Guardian Home Program, we ensure all our dogs live as beloved pets while maintaining a healthy, responsible breeding program. Our goal is to produce Cavaliers that are not only healthy and low-shedding but also well-adjusted for companionship, service, and therapy work. We take great care to match each puppy with the perfect family and remain committed to our puppies long after they leave our care. We provide lifetime breeder support to answer any questions and ensure both you and your Cavalier have a wonderful journey together.
Our Approach
At Cavaliers of Healdsburg, we believe the foundation of a great family dog begins with the care and attention given from day one. Our puppies are raised in a loving home setting, ensuring they are comfortable in a family environment. From the moment they are born, they are nurtured with love and attention, preparing them to become confident and well-adjusted companions.
We proudly follow the Puppy Culture and BAB Curriculum, two highly respected programs designed to give puppies the best start in life. These methods focus on early neurological stimulation, socialization, and positive experiences that foster resilience, adaptability, and a calm temperament. Our hands-on approach ensures that every puppy is ready to face the world with confidence.
We also prioritize practical training early in the puppies’ lives. Litter box and crate training begin as soon as they become mobile, making the transition to outdoor potty training much easier for new families. By introducing these basics early, we set our puppies up for success in their future homes.
To prepare our puppies for everyday life, we expose them to a wide variety of sights, sounds, and experiences. From household noises to new environments, we ensure each puppy grows up adaptable and confident in any situation. This sensory exposure lays the groundwork for a smooth transition to their forever homes.
Thank you for choosing Cavaliers of Healdsburg—where every puppy starts their life as part of our family!
