Welcome to Cavalier Rescue USA

Max in Murphy, TX

Here is Max with his new mom…

Max is a sweet tricolor boy looking for his forever home. He was born on January 22, 2022, and came into our care from a breeder. He spent his three years with the sole purpose of being a breeder. Additionally, he had poor vision due to congenital cataracts so was a bit timid, but has really come out of his shell since he had cataract surgery. The surgery has helped Max gain confidence, and he is eager-to-please.

Max wants to be near his people at all times, but plays well with other dogs. He has really blossomed, and fits into his foster home easily. Max is a cuddler, and loves a lap and to be petted. He rides well in the car. Max learned leash walking quickly, and loves long walks. He whines with excitement when he sees his harness and leash.

Max has learned the joy of toys and treats and is food motivated. Max is at his ideal weight at 16 pounds, and his appetite is good. He is not a picky eater. He eats very fast and a slow-eating-bowl has helped him.

Max is up to date on all vaccinations, was neutered, and microchipped.

When Max came into rescue, he had cataracts in both eyes. We wanted to do surgery on both eyes, but due to a detached retina in his right eye we could not do surgery on that eye. It does not cause him pain. His left eye had a cataract surgery and it went wonderfully. He can now see very well out of his left eye and is doing GREAT! Max does get three daily eye drops that will need to be continued. Two of them are prescription, and one is over the counter. The three drops average about $20.00 a month total. They can be managed by the adopters regular vet. (His eye vet in the Dallas area has also said he will do one complimentary appointment with his new owner.) Other than his eyes, Max has clean bill of health.

Max has learned to go potty outside, and learned very quickly to use a doggy door. He sleeps well at night, but does not want to be in a crate. He loves napping most of the day on the couch.

Max would be fine with older kids. He has not yet been tested with cats but gets along with other dogs. He would be fine with or without other dogs. Max has some separation anxiety, so the best scenario would be someone who can stay home with him during the day. Max is not much of a barker.

If you think Max would be a great fit for your family, and are within a few hours drive from Dallas, please contact Shelby at shelbynfields@gmail.com to express your interest. Please make sure you have an application on file.Online Application

Charlie in Dallas, TX

Update 1-4-25: We’ve received several promising applications for this pup so aren’t taking more for now. Thank you!

Meet Charlie, a precious four-year-old Blenheim boy (born on October 31, 2020) that came to us after an unsettled past of moving amongst different owners. Despite his unstable beginnings, Charlie’s endearing, sweet personality was present immediately. He is a loving, well-adjusted house dog.

Charlie loves exploring a fenced yard and going on walks, but his favorite activity is snuggling! Whether you’re on the couch or sitting anywhere, Charlie will happily climb into your lap and stay there for as long as you’re willing to let him. If you are looking for the ultimate snuggle companion, Charlie is your dog!

Charlie is in good health. He’s up to date on all his vaccinations, and recently underwent dental cleaning and his neuter surgery. Charlie is also very reliable with potty training. He does very well, as long as he is let outside regularly.

Charlie does have a bit of an escape artist streak, so a secure fence is a must for his safety. Front doors and other exits should be carefully monitored to ensure he doesn’t slip out unnoticed.

Charlie would thrive in a home where he can enjoy a forever family to love. The ideal home for Charlie would offer a securely fenced yard where he can explore. Charlie would fit best with a family where someone is home most of the time, as he prefers to have someone near him as much as possible.

He loves his people most, so he would be fine as an only dog, but he seems to enjoy the company of his non-dominant foster dog sister if no people are available! He has done wonderfully with people of all ages, children and adults.

Charlie is a sweet and loving boy eager to bring joy and affection to your home. If you feel you can provide Charlie with everlasting love, a warm lap to lay in, a secure fenced yard, low alone time and perhaps a friendly canine sibling, email Shelby at shelbynfields@gmail.com to express your interest. If you have not already filled out our online application, please do so. Preference is given to applicants within a few hours driving distance of Dallas.Online Application

Arrow in Orlando, FL

Here is Arrow with his new family…

Meet Arrow, a sweet and curious 1.5-year-old Cavalier born 06/30/2023 with a heart as big as his playful personality! This affectionate little guy loves being around people and is always ready for belly rubs once he feels at ease. Though he can be a little shy at first, it doesn’t take long for Arrow to warm up and reveal his loving nature.

Arrow has a particular fondness for toys, and enjoys exploring the outdoors on walks. He’s great with other gentle dogs and would likely do well in a home with cats, too.

Earlier this year, Arrow had knee surgery to repair his knee, but he’s made a full recovery and is back to his active, playful self. Arrow weighs 26 pounds. He’s working on losing a bit of weight, but with his love for playtime and walks, he’s making great progress. Arrow is neutered, chipped, and up to date on vaccines.

Arrow is also house trained, so he’s ready to settle into a home where he can be a beloved member of the family.

Arrow would do best in a home where someone is around more often than not, as he loves companionship and thrives on human interaction. His ideal home is one with adults or children who understand his gentle nature. He will need a committed adopter to continue his active lifestyle and continued weight loss.

If you’re looking for a cuddly, sweet companion who’s both playful and affectionate, Arrow is sure to steal your heart! Please complete our online application if you haven’t already and then email Sue Wesson at suewesson@snet.net so she knows to read your form.

Amber in Bentonville, AR

Here she is with her new family…..

Amber is a sweetheart, jut look into those big brown eyes. Amber is 5- years- old Ruby Cavalier born 1-26-2019. Her beautiful coat is the deepest ruby and silky soft. She came to rescue from a puppy mill and as most who come from these environments she is very and wary of new people.

She is a real lover for those she is use to being around, for those new people she might bark just to show she is nervous. This will take time for her to be able to trust humans.

Amber loves to be with her foster siblings, a house with other dogs would be just fine. Amber has not been around other pets. Since she is still very timid, a home without small or loud kids would be best. She loves sitting beside her human all day. She needs a little more work on potty-training but has had very few accidents. She is a very silly girl and loves to tippy tap around the house playing and learning how to be a Cavalier. Amber loves snuggling in the big bed and If you would like to get to know more about this sweet girl please complete the online application.

Amber is currently located in Northwest Arkansas. If you’re interested in adopting her, please complete our online application if you haven’t already and email Whitney Barron at wbarronp@gmail.com to let her know of your interest.

Gus in Nashville, TN

Update 1-2-25: We’ve received several promising applications for this pup so aren’t taking more for now. Thank you!

Meet Gus, a charming 7-9-year-old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel who is ready to bring unconditional love and companionship into his forever home. Gus has a truly special personality that will win your heart. He adores people, enjoys snuggling in laps, and thrives on the comfort of being a cherished house pup. Even the vet described Gus as one of the greatest dogs he has ever met!

Gus is the epitome of a “velcro dog,” always staying close to those he loves. Since joining his foster family, he has discovered the joys of toys and balls, overcome heartworms, and received essential medical care, including neuter surgery and dental work. Gus is an affectionate sweetheart who loves to put his paws on your chest for kisses, enjoys lounging around, and can be just as happy playing outside. His friendly disposition makes him an excellent office or shop companion.

He gets along wonderfully with other dogs, particularly playful ones, and would benefit from having a canine buddy. However, he does well with dogs of all energy levels and ages. Gus weighs 16 pounds and is at his ideal weight, though he has a sensitive stomach and appreciates punctual meal times! While he’s learning to “leave it” when it comes to cats, he’d do best in a home without them.

Gus would thrive in a family with minimal home-alone hours or one where he can accompany his people on outings. He’s making good progress with potty training but will need ongoing support. Having endured heartworm treatment, Gus requires a family committed to keeping him on preventative care and monitoring his heart health, as he has a murmur that doesn’t currently require medication. A fenced yard and an attentive, loving family are just what Gus needs to continue flourishing.

Gus’s foster family has adored him, and everyone he meets quickly falls for his sweet, loving nature. If you’re seeking a loyal, beautiful Blenheim boy who will gaze at you with love and adoration, Gus is the perfect match.

If you live within a reasonable driving distance (typically 3-4 hours) of Nashville, TN, and believe your home could be the perfect place for Gus to thrive, we would love to hear from you! Please complete the online application and send an email to Sandy Medd at rescuecavaliers@gmail.com to express your interest in Gus. Let us know why you think your home would be a great fit for him and include your location in your message.
