Avintara Cavalier King Charles Spaniels

Nillumbik, VIC

Hi, I'm Gaynor A.

My dogs and my puppies are raised holistically as my family and live in my home with me as part of my family. I am strongly invested in improving health in the breed and increasing the gene pool of the breed too. I have imported a dog from Spain in 2019 and two breeding units of frozen semen from a dog …

Our Breeding Practices

Behaviour and socialisation

At Avintara, we follow the puppy culture program - puppies are exposed to different toys, noises and interact with the family dogs and cat as they get older. From six weeks of age, they are taken out in the car for little trips and are handled and loved by my grandchildren.

Health

My puppies are weaned with human grade chicken mince and goats milk and introduced to a variety of meats as they grow - they are never fed processed dry food.

Home environment

My puppies are part of my family for the first weeks of their life. They live in my home and as they get older, they have full access and explore different areas of my house and so become well accustomed to traditional household noises - for example, vacuum cleaner and chairs moving.

A little about us

I used to breed and show rough coat collies and had show champions in England, South Africa, New Zealand and Australia. I had a fantastic English mentor who taught me how to correctly line breed to ensure true type and to emphasise great health. I dont show my dogs now as I prefer to spend the time with ALL my…

Why we got involved in breeding

I tragically lost a Rough Coat Collie at a young age to cancer, it broke my heart and I couldn't continue! I wanted a small dog that was able to be with me during the day in my mobile dog wash business and was drawn to the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel for their beautiful eyes and reputation for great love <3

Our special touch

I am continually researching all aspects of great health for Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, I have written a soon to be published book on Holistic Heart Health for the Cavalier King Charles and import frozen semen and dogs to improve the gene pool for great health and beauty
