Our Breeding Practices
Behaviour and socialisation
Our puppies are raised with our adults amongst the hustle and bustle of our busy household once they are out of the whelping box . Depending on the age they leave us, we like to take them to markets for the purposes of desensitisation of people, crowds and different noises, as well as smells. We believe the key to…

Home environment
Our home is especially designed and set up around our dogs, where we spend all of our time when at home with them in our family room. Cavaliers are bred and designed to be companion dogs, therefore, we ensure they are always with us and included in our day-to-day lives. They even have their own climate controlled…
Included with our puppies
Our puppies come with a 'puppy pack' with various bits and pieces to ensure a fluid transition to their new home. Before they leave us, they are Microchipped, have had their first vaccinations, wormed every fortnight and will come with an ANKC pedigree on 'limit registration'.

Additional Tests
Jehannah Cavalier King Charles Spaniels conducts 3 additional tests available for the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel.
Genetic TestCurly Coat Dry Eye Syndrome is a genetic cause of eye and skin problems in Cavalier King Charles Spaniel puppies. The disease also caused an unsually tight curly coat texture. There is a DNA test available to identify if breeding Cavaliers are carrying the gene for Curly Coat Dry Eye Syndrome.
- Genetic Test
This is a genetic neurological condition affecting Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. It causes sudden stiffening of the legs, often causing the dog to fall over and be unable to move. There is a DNA test available to indicate if a breeding dog is carrying this disease. The test is also recommended in Cavoodles.
- Physical Test
An eye certificate means the breeder has had their breeding dogs examined by a veterinary ophthalmologist, to confirm they are not affected by any eye conditions which may be passed down genetically to their puppies. If relevant for the breed, it also includes running DNA tests to confirm the dog is not a genetic carrier of hereditary eye diseases, such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA). It includes breeders who have participated in the Australian Canine Eye Scheme (ACES).
