How Much Does a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Puppy Cost?

How Much Does a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Puppy Cost?

What goes into the price of a well-bred Cavalier King Charles Spaniel puppy in Virginia, from health testing and veterinary care to the limited AKC registration that comes with every Enchanting Cavalier.

A Cavalier King Charles Spaniel puppy from a responsible breeder is never priced by color or by how quickly a litter sells. The price reflects years of health testing, genetic clearances, veterinary care for the dam and her litter, and the hours we spend matching each puppy to the right family.

Before any deposit is discussed, we walk every family through exactly what is included, what the purchase agreement covers, and what to expect during the first year. Start with our puppy information guide and a sample contract so there are no surprises, then submit an application so we can get to know your home.

Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Health Testing: What We Screen For

Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Health Testing: What We Screen For

Heart, eye, patella and DNA screening explained, and why health-tested Cavalier King Charles Spaniel bloodlines matter when you are choosing a breeder in Virginia.

Cavaliers are one of the most affectionate breeds in the world, and they are also one of the breeds that benefits most from careful health screening. Every breeding Cavalier here is evaluated for heart murmurs, eye conditions, patellar luxation and hip soundness by a veterinarian, and DNA tested for the inherited conditions that can be identified before breeding.

Health testing photographs, clearances and pedigrees are shared openly with every family, and they are the reason we can speak confidently about the temperament and long-term health of the puppies we place. Meet our breeding Cavaliers and read through the conditions we screen for before you fall in love with a litter.

Bringing Home a Cavalier Puppy: Your First 30 Days

A realistic first-month plan for your new Cavalier King Charles Spaniel puppy, covering feeding schedules, potty training, sleep, socialization and the first vet visit.

The first month home sets the tone for everything that follows. Expect short stretches of sleep, frequent potty trips, and a puppy who follows you from room to room. Consistency matters far more than perfection, so build a simple routine around meals, naps and outdoor breaks and repeat it every single day.

We send every family home with a feeding schedule, potty guidance and the products we actually use, plus the reassurance that you can call us with questions. Read our new puppy parent resources and the feeding schedule below before pickup day, and reach out any time in those first weeks.

Blenheim, Ruby, Tricolor or Black and Tan: Choosing a Cavalier Color

The four recognized Cavalier King Charles Spaniel colors explained, what each looks like as a puppy, and how to tell a well-marked Cavalier from a mismarked one.

All four Cavalier colors are equally correct: Blenheim, a pearly white coat with chestnut markings; tricolor, black and white with tan points; ruby, a solid rich red; and black and tan. Coat markings shift as a puppy grows, so the pattern you meet at six weeks is not always the pattern you bring home at ten.

Color should never be the reason a puppy is priced differently, and it should not outrank temperament or health. Look through our available puppies and past litters to see every color in the sunshine, then let us know your preference in your application and we will match you to the right litter.

Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Stud Service: What to Expect

Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Stud Service: What to Expect

How Cavalier stud service works with a health-tested male, what is required of the dam, and the paperwork and guarantees that protect both breeders.

Stud service is a partnership, not a transaction. Before a breeding, our male must be health tested and cleared, the dam must meet the same standard, and both parties sign an agreement covering the timing, the live-puppy guarantee and the registration paperwork.

We accept a limited number of outside breedings each year and mentor new breeders through the process, including progesterone timing and the questions to ask before wheels are set in motion. Review our breeding males and the stud service requirements, then send an inquiry with your dam's details.

Avery Retirement

We made the decision to spay and retire Avery after a bit of challenge with her reproductive health as she was turning five on September 4th. It wasn't a hard decision as her health was our primary concern. We are pleased to announce that Avery is doing fantastic enjoying her new role as Auntie to puppies and snuggle buddy to us humans. She has taken a liking to stuffed lamb chop which now is a favorite companion inside and out. The health concerns are gone as she takes a more passive role in our breeding program. Guess she is just enjoying retirement after having three litters of puppies and 16 puppies. Thank you, Avery, for being a loving girl and fantastic mother!
