Update 10-4-26: We’ve received several promising applications for this pup so aren’t taking more applications for now. Thank you!

Pearl is an adorable 3-month old Blenheim Cavalier puppy that was born into rescue on July 6, 2026. Her mom was given to Cavalier Rescue USA when her home based breeder was retiring.

She has started her initial puppy vaccinations. Remaining vaccines will be required of adopter when age appropriate. Also, her adopter will be required to provide proof of spay at 9 months of age.

She requires an owner who is home much of the day and has a physically fenced yard. She does not know how to walk on leash yet.

Reba in Dallas, TX

Meet Reba! Reba (or Reba Lou or Lou Lou) is a 4-year-old female Blenheim (born 4/12/2022). At only 15 lbs., Reba is a true lapdog who is always trying to nestle her tiny body close to her person. She is very snuggly, quiet and matches the energy of the moment, whether that’s a calm nap on the couch or a high-energy walk. Reba is a true shadow dog, always one step behind you anywhere you lead her.

Reba came into our rescue from a breeder who sadly struggled with some health issues that made her unable to keep her. She received a clean bill of health from the vet including a clear heart! She did have a parasite and has been treated for. She had a spay while in rescue and is current on core vaccines, microchipped, and is on heartworm prevention. She does generally have itchy/dry skin, so will need to be kept on supplements like fish oil and will need her skin to continue to be observed by a vet.

Reba is potty trained and had minimal accidents in the house while she was with her foster mom. She is also leash trained and enjoys long walks, especially in quiet areas without a lot of traffic nearby. She requires someone that is home most of the day, preferably someone who works from home or a retiree. She very rarely barks but may whine if she senses that you are leaving the house without her or is left alone in a crate.

While she is laid back with humans, Reba is still working on how to be comfortable with other dogs. She would be best suited for a home without other pets as she has shown a tendency to resource-guard both food and attention from humans. She will need some training to work through her resource guarding to be safely around other animals. She has not been around young kids or cats while in foster care.

If you think you are able to provide all the necessary love and care that Reba deserves, please ensure you have an online application filled out and then email shelbynfields@gmail.com to express your interest. We kindly ask for emails only for interest. Please only apply if you are within an easy driving distance to Dallas, TX.

Lucky in Loveland, CO

Meet Lucky, a 14-year-old happy go lucky male Blenheim Cavalier. He loves to follow you everywhere you go. He loves going for rides, exploring the fenced-in yard, meal times, but most of all cuddling with you or taking naps in his favorite bed in the room you are in at the present time.

Lucky weighs about 21 pounds and gets around very well, especially for an older gentleman. He is deaf but that does not stop him from sharing his love with everyone he meets – both humans and other dogs.

Lucky came into rescue because his owners were moving across the country and were concerned about moving a dog that has a heart murmur. While in foster care, Lucky visited the veterinary cardiology specialist department for a complete exam. He has a grade 5 out of 6 heart murmur. His heart enlargement is at a stage B2 so he is now taking pimobendan. Chest x-rays did not show him to be in heart failure. He has occasional coughing due to his heart intermittently compressing some of the airways of the lungs. He should have his next cardiology visit in 4 to 6 months, unless health changes require him to be seen sooner. In the last six weeks, Lucky has had three fainting or syncope episodes.

Although Lucky’s teeth would benefit from a dental, the syncope episodes make anesthesia riskier for him. He is not getting a dental, but is on pain medication to help his mouth feel more comfortable. Despite the bad teeth, he does need to eat out of a dog dish that is made to slow down his eating since he will wolf down his entire meal in seconds otherwise.

Lucky is neutered, microchipped and arrived in rescue with current vaccinations.

Lucky does best when you are around the majority of the time. He does not do well with cats and will chase them. Lucky would love to a fenced in yard to explore. His forever family will need to be committed to monitoring Lucky’s heart and taking him in for follow-up care with cardiology.

Lucky is an amazing, gentle, heart warming old guy. He eagerly gives his love to you in return for your love. If you are looking for a mellow companion in your life, Lucky was meant for you. He will be by your side all the time sharing his love with you. If he may be the dog for you, please complete the online application (if you haven’t already), and email Carolyn at CarolynCKCS@comcast.net to let her know you are interested in having Lucky be a part of your family.

Dee in Coatesville, PA

Melody- or Dee as her foster mom has taken to calling her is an incredible sweet and gentle little girl. She came into rescue from an owner who was no longer able to continue to care for her. We do not have a lot of information about her life before rescue but we do know that she spent her time living in a shed with little human contact interaction.

Dee absolutely adores her foster dog siblings and follows them and her foster mom everywhere most days. She is her foster mom’s little shadow for the most part though there are some days when she prefers to stay in one of her safe places such as her foster mom’s bed or in the family room. Dee does not like to be touched or picked up so she uses soft stairs to get into bed and has just recently started joining on the couch the same way.

Dee was diagnosed with a condition called Episodic Falling Syndrome (EFS). This causes her body to tense up when she feels big emotions and sometimes overnight. This means if she gets scared or overly excited she will lose control of her body. It is very frightening for her as she is still awake but not in control of her body. Dee will typically have her most intense and longest episodes overnight which require a medication given intranasally. It can still take several minutes for the episode to stop so a calm and nurturing environment is a must. She sleeps in bed next to her foster mom so that if she has a medical episode her foster mom can act appropriately. She is on a different daily medication to help control her episodes. She also takes a daily pain medication for chronic neck and back pain.

While in foster care, Dee was spayed. The next day she developed Acute Hemorrhagic Diarrhea Syndrome (AHDS) and spent a few days in the ER. The cause was never confirmed, but it was most likely caused by the stress from her spay surgery or post surgery medications. Fortunately she recovered nicely and is back to herself.

Dee has started to enjoy bully sticks, snuffle mats, lick mats, pupsicles, and short training sessions. She has made tremendous progress while in foster care for many months. She needs a very special family who understands that she has been through a lot and will take time to learn to trust and feel safe. She does not seek out affection and is fearful of being handled. However she is loving and will come give her foster mom, foster grandma, and pet sitter a little soft boop with her nose on the back of our legs from time to time. She has also now started getting very excited for meals and will sing her happy song while wagging her tail.

Dee will need a physically fenced in yard as she can’t walk on a harness and leash well due to EFS. She is working on potty training and needs a patient and understanding family that will help continue her potty training progress without causing her stress. She does follow the other dogs outside for potty breaks.

Dee is good with cats and must go to a home with another calm, dog loving dog who is okay with her shadowing them and snuggling them.

If you think you might be a good match for Melody and live within a reasonable driving distance of Coatesville, PA let us know. Please make sure you have a current application on file and contact us via email at cavalierrescueusapa@gmail.com and ask to be considered for Melody.

Coa Coa in Chapel Hill, NC

Raise your hand if you have ever been personally victimized by an adorable dog? When they are just so cute it isn’t fair? Meet Glen Coa Coa in North Carolina. Coa Coa came to Cavalier Rescue USA when his owner no longer had the time to dedicate to to him. Coa Coa is a 1 year old, neutered male born 06/30/2025. Coa Coa is a puppy, through and through. He hasn’t had the most consistent training throughout his life, but he’s eager for your love and praise. You just need to tell him what to do and he’s happy to learn. His manners are much improved since moving in with his foster family.

Coa Coa loves to play, almost as much as he loves to curl up on your lap and snuggle. He wants to be near you all the time. If you look up synonyms for Cavalier in the thesaurus, you’ll find “Velcro dog”. Coa Coa is the perfect example of that. He’s looking for his person. Could that be you?

Coa Coa does great with other dogs. He plays non-stop with his foster brother who is a one year old English Toy Spaniel. He loves sleeping with you at night. I know that you might think you need space on the bed, but Coa Coa knows that space is really for him.

It seems like Coa Coa has never walked with a collar before. He much prefers his chest harness. This is important so he doesn’t slip out of his collar! But once he realizes his harness is going on so he can go for walk, he’s as excited as a little kid on Christmas morning. He loves the morning walks to school with his foster mom’s 6 year old son. They were fast friends. Coa Coa grew up around kids and is very kind and patient with them. Coa Coa has not had any interactions with cats.

Coa Coa is not fully potty trained yet. He has been receptive to training in his foster home, but still requires frequent potty breaks and needs to be supervised (much like any other young puppy learning where to do his business). His adopter needs to be aware of this. There could potentially be a regression during the transition to his new home.

Coa Coa also wasn’t crate trained when he arrived to his foster home. He has made huge strides with this! He will now go in his crate for a biscuit. Coa Coa also eats in his crate because his foster brothers will try and steal his food (you know how food motivated Cavaliers can be!).

Coa Coa has a clean bill of heath from his vet and is up to date on vaccines as well as flea/tick/heartworm prevention.

Coa Coa would be happy with another like-sized dog, but also has lived as an only dog before. He needs someone who is home most of the day. Coa Coa gets lonely when left alone for too long. He needs a home with a securely fenced in yard for him to run and play safely in. He also needs someone committed to taking him for daily walks. He would love an active family, maybe even with dog savvy kids to play with.

If you think you might be a good fit as Coa Coa’s new forever family and you live within a reasonable driving distance to Chapel Hill, NC, please complete an online application if you haven’t already and then notify Angie Hansing of your interest by emailing her at nccavalierrescuemom@gmail.com

Xena in Skaneateles, NY

Meet Xena, an adorable and healthy 7-year-old Blenheim Cavalier girl. Xena began her life in the breeding world and was rehomed once she retired. She then moved in with a couple and their male dog, whose behavioral challenges created a stressful environment for Xena.The couple did amazing work with Xena to fully potty train her and provide love and care. They were heartbroken to rehome her, but came to realize that perhaps Xena would do best in a new setting. Xena is a doll and shows little to no anxiety in her foster home with her new Cavalier friends!

Xena is a gentle Cavalier and loves to be with her people. At home she is cuddly and will absolutely follow her people from room to room. Foster mom works from home and Xena is often found under the desk.

She is great on leash walks and ready to jump in the car for outings. She has met dozens of new people and is friendly to all. Fun fact: While visiting the local pumpkin patch, two little boys asked if they could pet her and asked her name. When foster mom replied “Xena” their eyes opened wide and one said “Our dogs name is Xena too and it means Warrior Princess!”. Foster life takes courage, and this princess Xena has faced it like the little warrior she is.

Xena arrived fully house trained. She is crate trained as well and sleeps in a crate next to foster mom’s bed overnight. Xena is spayed and up-to-date on core vaccines and preventatives. She appears to have some hearing loss but is otherwise a heart clear, healthy pup.

Someone who is home much of the time would be wonderful for Xena. She would likely be fine as an only pet, but certainly loves a gentle pet sibling. She does need to have a fenced in yard.

If you are interested in adopting this beautiful girl please complete our online application and then email Michelle Farnum at cavalierrescueny@gmail.com so she knows of your interest.
