About the Breeder
A little about us
As well as being the passionate and loving breeder that I am, I work as an insurance broker where I am fortunate enough to take my dogs to work - Alfie ‘Fredricos Zoom Zoom Zoom’ is the company’s ambassador for the ‘Pet Industry’ portfolio.

Our special touch
We take the holistic approach to raising our Cavaliers with a focus on feeding fresh raw food diets in the interests of health. We are happy to help educate Cavalier owners about raw feeding.
