Welcome to Cavalier Rescue USA

Whimsey in Dallas, TX

Add some Whimsey to your life! Whimsey is a 10-year-old, female, Blenheim, Cavalier King Charles Spaniel born 04/13/2015.

Whimsey is a very sweet girl that loves cuddles! She is an absolute doll and is friendly with everyone she meets. She is happiest by your side on the couch, receiving scratches and belly rubs until she falls asleep. If you stop petting her, she will take her paw and ask for more! She will be your little shadow, following you everywhere you go. If she can’t see you, she will walk around the house looking for you. Whimsey found herself in rescue after her previous family dynamics changed and they were no longer able to care for her.

Whimsey is very low energy and spends most of her time lounging on the couch and in bed. She knows how to use stairs to and loves sleeping on a bed. She has been trusted to roam the house freely for short periods of time while her foster parents were away. At the beginning of her foster journey, she did have a few accidents in the house, which may have been due to the change in her life or the change of diet. She does not alert when she needs to go potty and will occasionally need encouragement to go out, especially in the cold. Her foster mom will stand outside with her and wait for her to be done with her business. For this reason, we recommend an adopter that will be home most of the day to take her out frequently.

She occasionally shows signs of resource guarding to other dogs when it comes to human affection (sharing a human lap) and food. She is fed in a separate area to prevent this behavior. This was a lot more frequent when she first got to her foster home but she has been greatly improving. She will need an adopter who will be willing to work with her on this issue.

Besides the now rare display of resource guarding, she gets along well with the other dogs and cats in her foster home. She lays on the couch with her foster dog siblings and also sleeps in the same bed with them. Whimsey will sometimes get a case of the zoomies and run around the backyard chasing them! Even though she gets along well with the other pets in her foster home, she is definitely more people oriented and will prefer the company of her humans!

At 10 years old she is in great health! No heart murmur! During her time in foster care she was spayed and had a teeth cleaning with 11 extractions. She was also brought up to date with her vaccines and is on heart worm prevention. The only concern that was observed during her spay was an enlarged right kidney. She had an ultrasound and they said it would not likely become an issue unless she had recurring urinary tract infections (which has not been an issue with her). They recommended a urinalysis twice a year and no further treatment is recommended.

Gemini in Nashville, TN

Meet Gemini: a loyal, loving and laid-back companion looking for his forever people.

Looking for a sweet, snuggly sidekick with a gentle soul? Gemini is your guy!

Affectionately known as Gemi, he is a handsome almost eight-year-old Tricolor Cavalier born on March 6, 2018. With his soulful eyes, affectionate nature and calm presence, Gemi is the definition of a loyal companion.

Gemi is a big-hearted boy with an equally big frame. He weighs about 33 pounds. He has recently started a weight loss plan to help him shed a few pounds and reach a healthier size.

But don’t let his size fool you; he’s incredibly gentle, loving, and content to lounge by your side while you work, relax or enjoy a quiet evening at home.

While Gemi adores being the center of attention, he’s not demanding. He’s just happy being near his people.

This charming gentleman is up to date on all vaccinations, has been neutered, and recently had a fresh dental cleaning, so he’s all set for his next chapter.

He’s mostly potty-trained but does occasionally lift his leg indoors, so his new family will need to help reinforce good habits with consistency and patience.

Gemi may also have some mild hearing loss, which is not uncommon for Cavaliers his age, but it doesn’t slow him down one bit.

Gemi is good with other dogs and has done well meeting children. He enjoys leash walks and does great strolling by your side. He’s also comfortable in a crate, whether for quiet time at home or sleeping through the night.

He’s not a big fan of getting into the crate for car rides, but once inside he settles down and rides calmly.

Gemi would thrive in a home where someone is around during the day to give him attention and companionship. He doesn’t need constant activity. He’s perfectly content to lie at your feet while you work and just be close.

A low-key, loving household would be the perfect place for him to feel safe, appreciated, and adored.

This sweet boy is ready to bring joy, comfort and lots of love to the lucky family who opens their heart to him.

If you believe you are a great match for Gemini, please express your interest in an email to Liz Nigh at lizcavalierusa@gmail.com

Charlie in Austin, TX

Here is Charlie with his new family…

Hi, I’m Charlie! I had been living my best life for 7 years until my owner’s health declined and she was moved to Memory Care.

Even with all this stress, I am a smart, sweet and happy boy. I know basic commands and I’m house trained. I love going for walks and am SO good on the leash. When on walks, I don’t react to bicycles, garbage trucks, or squirrels. I’m more interested in smelling all the good smells. I’m pretty chill if another dog barks or comes at me. I currently have four foster siblings and we all get along fine. Nonetheless, I am really all about my person. I spent a few days around two cats and was non reactive. I’m calm around small children.

My owner was retired and home all day. I need a place where my people are primarily home, allowing me to snuggle close on the couch. I love being allowed to sleep on the bed. I get attached very quickly but I do have some anxiety. I can be destructive when left alone uncrated. I am working on the idea of being crate trained. I’m learning that it’s a safe place for when I am alone.

I am up to date on all of my inoculations. I was neutered 1/7/26. They did discover I have a grade 4 heart murmur. No medications were recommended at this time, but I will eventually need them. My heart needs to be checked semi-annually.

If you are interested in giving Charlie his forever home, please complete our online application if you haven’t already and then email Janice Cartwright at janicecartwright33@gmail.com so she knows of your interest.

Izzy in Dallas, TX

Here is Izzy with her new family…

Izzy is a 4-year-old (birthday 8/01/2021) 19 pound Blenheim, who would love nothing more than to snuggle in your arms and stare deeply into your soul. She is the very definition of precious with her doll-like face and gentle, loving demeanor. She is incredibly sweet and bonds deeply with her humans… though she is a bit apprehensive of strangers. Izzy came to us when her previous family dynamics changed, and they were no longer able to care for her.

She is absolutely beautiful and loves to be the belle of the ball. She is very well behaved in social settings, choosing to be perfectly content on your lap, rather than explore her surroundings. She is very loyal to her humans. She is curious, but not curious enough that anything is more important than you.

Izzy is a nice mix of playful and snuggly. While she may appear to choose snuggles over playtime, she is delighted to be given the opportunity to chase a squirrel, bird, or her younger foster brother down the hall. When she runs, her little back legs fly up like she is taking flight and her whole body seems to coast through the air— making it impossible not to smile.

Because she bonds so deeply with her people, she sometimes has a hard time sharing attention with other doggies. When she first arrived in her foster home, she showed some resource guarding of her foster mom’s lap towards her foster siblings. But after time, she has learned to share the spotlight, as long as she feels like the number one princess… everyone can and does snuggle!

Izzy has a natural instinct to chase moving critters, so a fenced in yard would be ideal. In her prior home she was accustomed to using a doggy door and pottying while free in a yard. She had a couple of accidents at the beginning of foster care while she was getting used to a new routine of pottying on walks. After learning from her foster sibling she no longer has accidents. Izzy would prefer a home where she’s allowed to curl up in bed next to you at night! She is a deep sleeper and loves to be adored and cuddled.

Since arriving into foster care, Izzy has been spayed and had a dental. She was brought up to date on her vaccines, is on heart worm prevention, and is microchipped. She has a clean bill of health! If you’re ready for a sweet and tender companion, who will absolutely love you to the moon and back, Izzy may be your perfect girl.

If you think Izzy would be a great fit for your family, please contact Shelby at shelbynfields@gmail.com to express your interest. Please ensure you have an application on file and please read the FAQ for common questions.

Peaches in Melissa, TX

Here is Peaches with her new family…

Peaches is a 5-year-old (birthday 3/17/2020) 18 lb Blenheim, who would love nothing more than to cuddle with you all day. She is incredibly sweet, loves to be close to you, and bonds deeply with her people. She is absolutely gorgeous and she knows it! She prances around the yard with her head held high, loving all the attention!

Peaches came to us when her previous family dynamics changed, and they were no longer able to care for her. You can tell her previous owner had worked with her in the past, as she knows some cool tricks! Once she settles into her new home, she would love to perform for you! She is food and toy motivated making her very fun to train. Her favorite toy is a squeaky binkie, which she will fetch for you all day.

She’s the perfect mix of playful and snuggly, always up for a game, but just as quick to curl up beside you on the couch for a cozy nap. Because she bonds so deeply with her people, she sometimes has a hard time sharing attention with other dog friends. When she first arrived in her foster home, she showed some resource guarding of her foster moms lap towards other dogs. She has been learning to share the attention and will tolerate her foster dog siblings, but we think she would do better as an only dog, or with a patient, larger dog with whom she won’t have to share the couch.

Peaches does have a prey drive and loves to chase moving critters whether it’s a bug or squirrel – so a fenced in yard would be ideal.

Peaches is potty trained, and does a great job at letting her foster mom know she needs to go potty outside. She sleeps quietly in her crate but would prefer a home where she’s allowed to curl up in bed next to you at night!

Since arriving into foster care, Peaches has been spayed and had a dental. She was also brought up to date on her vaccines, is on heart worm prevention, and is microchipped. She now has a clean bill of health! If you’re ready for a sweet, flashy companion who will adore you unconditionally, Peaches might just be your perfect match. She is a lovely all around girl!

If you think Peaches would be a great fit for your family, please fill out our online application if you haven’t already and then contact Shelby at shelbynfields@gmail.com to express your interest. Also, please read the FAQ page for answers to common questions.
