Our Breeding Practices
Behaviour and socialisation
Our puppies are born and raised in our home and spend their first few weeks in our living room which has a heated whelping box and playpen set up with enrichment toys. They are handled daily from birth, receiving lots of close attention and interaction with us as well as any visitors who drop by. Being raised in our…
Health
Our dogs are fully DNA tested and clear of known hereditary diseases. We feed a combination diet of raw wholefoods and dry premium kibble. (We use Royal Canin varieties). We find the dry puppy food is particularly palatable and tasty for our younger puppies until we introduce them to raw mince and bone from chicken…
Home environment
My husband and I live on a small acreage with a beautiful big open front yard; our home has a large covered porch where we love to sit and watch our dogs running around, playing and exploring the property. Our older dogs are free to roam inside and out of the house through a doggy door; they have their own boudoir…
Included with our puppies

About the Breeder
A little about us
My name is Chris; I live in the beautiful Hunter Valley, NSW with my husband and a wonderful menagerie of dogs including my Cavaliers, Tibetan Spaniels and a German Shepherd, plus two horses, a Ragdoll cat and two British Shorthair cats. I have owned and loved Cavaliers since 1992 and first began showing them in 1996…
Why we got involved in breeding
My first husband and I originally owned and bred German Shepherds but when we separated he kept the dogs. I missed having a dog and decided to move to a smaller breed. I attended a few dog shows and spotted the most beautiful tricolour Cavalier puppy. There my passion for this lovely breed began and I have owned and…
Our special touch
Our dogs are well known for their beautiful temperaments, confidence and outgoing nature - previous owners come back for another puppy time and time again! Some of our lovely Cavaliers work as therapy dogs, visiting schools, hospitals, nursing homes and have appeared in court as support for victims of crime. We are…
