Description
Dog Breed: Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. Adoption Fee: $700 Plus $150 Neuter Deposit. Linus loves a soft blanket, but he must play lots before nap time! Little Linus is the runt of the litter but that absolutely does not slow him down. He makes sure his siblings know that he is just as tough as they are. Linus loves being outside, toys, and treats. He doesn't mind hanging by himself but always prefers to be with his foster mom. He gives lots of kisses, probably because his foster mom gave him so many kisses as he was growing. Linus would be fine in a home with other pups or as an only pup. Overall, he has a more laid-back personality. **Linus does have a grade one heart murmur. It is very soft and mild, and likely an innocent puppy murmur that will resolve as he grows. However, heart murmurs are something to be aware of in all Cavaliers. Please read our Cavalier Information Page in full BEFORE applying to adopt Linus or any of our other Cavaliers. ADOPTION REQUIREMENTS: Secure fenced in yard. Linus has lots of puppy energy and loves to run and play, so a physically fenced in yard is a must. We do NOT allow invisible/electric fences to be used for any of our dogs. Family with the time and patience required to properly train and socialize a puppy. Cavaliers do not tolerate isolation well. They were bred to be lap/companion dogs and become extremely attached to the people they love. Linus will require a family who is able to be with him most of the time. Home without children under 8 years of age. Cavalier savvy family who understands the potential for health issues in Cavaliers is preferred. Linus is current on age-appropriate vaccinations, deworming, and microchipped. His adoption fee is $700 plus a neuter deposit of $150, which will be refunded upon proof of neuter being provided. Prior to being rescued, many of our dogs have received limited socialization, so they generally require extra time to settle in and acclimate. Skills like house training, leash walking, and mastering stairs may require a little extra practice. However, with understanding, patience, and a gentle hand, most of our dogs adapt quite quickly. *Please read through our Cavalier Information page prior to applying for one of our Cavaliers.

Overview:
The Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is an enchanting toy breed with a rich history, originating from the spaniels depicted in paintings of the 16th to 18th centuries and popularized by King Charles II. They are characterized by their gentle, affectionate temperament, making them exceptional companions. Physically, Cavaliers are small yet sturdy, typically weighing between 13-18 pounds, with a silky, medium-length coat that comes in various color patterns including Blenheim (chestnut and white), tricolor, black and tan, and ruby. Their signature features include a slightly domed head, large expressive eyes, and long feathered ears. Cavaliers are known for being adaptable and eager to please, thriving in both family environments and apartment living due to their moderate exercise needs and loving nature. They generally get along well with children and other pets, fitting seamlessly into most households. However, prospective owners should be aware of certain breed-specific health concerns, such as heart conditions (mitral valve disease) and syringomyelia, making regular veterinary check-ups crucial for their well-being.
