Welcome to Cavalier Rescue USA

Winston in Canfield, OH

Here is Winston with his new family…

Winston is a 9-month-old tricolor Cavalier King Charles Spaniel who was born 7-19-2025. He is an 11-pound bundle of sweetness who is ready to find his forever home. He came into foster care when his owner realized she did not have the amount of time he needed.

Winston is full of love and he is learning every day that the world is a safe place. He is a happy, playful and affectionate little guy who loves toys, enjoys giving kisses and lights up when he gets attention from his people. Winston can be a bit skittish at times and may startle easily, so he will thrive in a calm, patient home where he is given time, consistency, and reassurance to build confidence. He is truly a sweet, loving boy who bonds deeply with his person.

Winston has been fully vetted, neutered, and microchipped. He does have some cardiac conditions that will require ongoing monitoring. He has a grade 5 heart murmur due to a hole in the muscle separating the lower heart chambers. At this time, his cardiologist does not recommend any medication, and there are no immediate concerns. He will need a recheck in 9-12 months. He also has mild valvular pulmonic stenosis, an inherited heart condition. Despite this, his cardiologist feels Winston has a good prognosis for the short and intermediate future, as well as potentially long-term, but this would again be dependent on if any progression is noted at subsequent visits. Because of his medical needs, Winston will require a home that can provide the time, consistency and patience necessary to support the ongoing veterinary care and monitoring.

Despite his diagnosis, Winston is a happy, active puppy who loves life. He is working on his house training and does best with frequent potty breaks, especially after meals and drinking. He sleeps peacefully in his crate at night and settles in very well once it’s bedtime.

Winston walks well on a leash, but would truly thrive in a home with a fenced yard where he can safely run, play and burn off his puppy energy. He is learning to navigate stairs and is currently fearful of them. Winston enjoys “assisting” during chores, especially vacuuming.

More than anything, Winston is just a loving little boy who wants to be close to his people. He is affectionate, playful, and full of heart in every sense of the word. He may be small, but he has so much love to give to the right family.

If you think that you would be a good fit for this loving little boy, please complete our online application if you haven’t already and then email Sherry Morgan (morgans817@sbcglobal.net) so she knows of your interest.

Buddy in Red Wing, MN

Here is Buddy with his new family…

Are you looking for your best Buddy? Well here is Buddy, a 3-year-old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel with a handsome tricolor coat and an easygoing, affectionate personality. He’s the kind of dog who wins people of all ages over quickly! Buddy loves to visit his foster mom’s mother in the care center and visit with all age folks. He might be a candidate for a therapy dog! Whether it’s playtime in the yard or curling up for some attention, Buddy thrives on being part of the family.

He has a bit of a unique stride due to an old puppy injury that left one leg slightly shorter than the others, but it doesn’t slow him down or dampen his spirit. Buddy gets around just fine and is always ready for a walk, something that would help him shed a little extra weight and stay in great shape. Buddy weighs 25 lbs and the vet says he needs to lose 3-5 lbs.

Buddy prefers the comfort of being near his people over being confined, so he’s not a fan of crates. He’d do best in a home where he can enjoy companionship, gentle exercise, and plenty of love. Buddy, like most dogs, enjoys his zoomies at night, and when all done, he will happily trot off to bed and sweetly snore. Buddy does not need a fenced yard as he walks well on his leash and harness.

All in all, Buddy is a sweet, resilient little dog with a big heart and lots of joy to give.

He is being fostered in Red Wing, MN.

If you are interested in Buddy, please complete our online application if you haven’t already and then email Gail at cavalierrescueusawimn@gmail.com to let her know you’ve applied.

Reggie and Rex in Nashville, TN

Here are Reggie and Rex with their new family…

Reggie and Rex are two sweet, social, and smart 4‑year‑old tricolor Cavalier King Charles Spaniels born 07/03/2021. They came to Cavalier Rescue USA after their owner, who loved them very much, had a serious health issue. These bonded boys adore people, enjoy exploring the world together, and bring a gentle, joyful presence wherever they go.

Reggie and Rex are working on their leash manners, but they love going for walks and will do best with a fenced‑in backyard where they can safely enjoy outdoor time. They are house trained; leash trained and know how to use a doggie door. Both boys enjoy car rides and are always excited for an outing. They do well with other dogs of all sizes and can live with a mellow, older cat, though they are still figuring out exactly what to make of them. They are wonderful with children and enjoy exploring alongside them. Noise and commotion do not bother these calm, easygoing boys, and they would thrive in a family environment with someone home much of the day to offer companionship and cuddles. They each weigh 22 lbs, have recently lost a few pounds, and are approaching their ideal weight.

Reggie is the more vocal and expressive of the pair, often greeting you with enthusiasm and an adorable head tilt that makes him look especially inquisitive. He tends to take the lead and will happily seek out affection throughout the day.

Rex is the quieter, more reserved and observant brother who looks to Reggie for cues. He loves to cuddle in the evenings and may be hard of hearing. Since coming into rescue, he has been treated for an ear infection and a UTI, and while he has received a clean bill of health, he should be monitored for any future signs of either condition.

Both boys have been neutered, are up‑to‑date on all vaccines and preventatives, and have been microchipped.

If you are looking for a pair of gentle, loving, and affectionate boys, Reggie and Rex are your perfect match — ready to bring double the sweetness and double the joy into your home. If you believe you are a great match for Reggie and Rex to be a forever part of your home, please complete our online application if you haven’t already.

Franklin in Northville, MI

Here is Franklin with his new family…

Love me, love me, love me! This is the anthem for handsome Franklin, a 3-year old male Blenheim Cavalier. Franklin is the kind of dog who instantly steals your heart the moment you meet him. Weighing 22 pounds, he is a big blend of sweet, gentle, and devoted. Whether curled up beside you, following you from room to room, or greeting you with excitement after a short time away, Franklin lives for connection. He came into rescue through no fault of his own when his family could no longer care for him after a divorce. He is now ready to give his whole heart to a new forever home.

Franklin has a calm, patient temperament and truly loves people. He warms up quickly to visitors and has experience being around children ages 2 to 10 in his previous home. He thrives on companionship and would do best in a home where someone is around most of the day. Franklin is happiest when he is near his person, whether that means sitting in your lap or simply resting close by. He enjoys being the center of attention, but he is also respectful of space and can be content to relax quietly at your side.In his foster home, Franklin has excellent house manners.

He is fully housetrained with no accidents when given regular potty breaks. He is crate trained and sleeps soundly through the night in his crate next to his foster mom’s bed. He also stays comfortably in his crate when she runs errands. His foster mom works from home, so he hangs out during the workday in her office on his special chair or in his doggie bed. Franklin is not a big barker, though he will happily let you know when he is excited to see you.

Franklin enjoys the simple things in life. He loves being outside, going for walks, exploring, and especially receiving belly rubs. He is a great leash walker and would thrive in a home with a fenced yard where he can safely run and explore. Although he is affectionate and adaptable, Franklin has an alpha-dog temperament and will do best as the only pet in the home so he can soak up all the people love and attention. He can get overly excited around other dogs, although he would benefit from some monitored play date with other Cavaliers or similar size/temperament dogs.

After a recent vet visit, Franklin proved to be in excellent health and just had his teeth cleaned. He is slightly overweight, but with regular exercise, good diet, and a balanced routine, he is already on track to hit his target weight. He is up-to-date with his vaccinations, neutered, and microchipped.

Franklin is truly a special dog who will bring warmth, companionship, and unconditional love into the right home. If you are looking for a loyal companion to be by your side, Franklin may be the perfect match for you.

If you are home during the day, have a fenced yard, and no other dogs in your home, please complete the online adoption application and email June Kirchgatter at June.cavaliers@gmail.com to let her know you are interested in Franklin. If you are already in our database, no need to complete another application. Just give June your first and last name.

Cooper in Little Rock, AR

Meet the sweetest little gentleman you’ll ever have the pleasure of knowing — a 7-year-old Blenheim Cavalier King Charles Spaniel with a heart as beautiful as his soft chestnut-and-white coat.

This charming boy is the definition of calm and gentle. He has a laid-back temperament that makes him the perfect companion for a quieter home. Whether you’re reading a book, watching TV, or working from home, he’s happiest curled up beside you — or better yet, in your lap. Being a devoted lapdog is truly his life’s calling, and he takes the job very seriously.

He is completely housetrained and kennel trained, making him an easy addition to his forever family. He understands routines and settles in beautifully. He’s wonderful with other dogs and would do well with a canine companion, though he’d also be perfectly content soaking up all the love as your one and only pup. He is not a fan of cats, however, and would do best in a cat-free home.

Cooper absolutely loves food. Mealtime is his favorite event of the day and he’s very food motivated, which makes him responsive and eager to please. He also has a mischievous streak when it comes to squirrels — spotting one will light up his world! Because of his enthusiastic squirrel patrol duties, a securely fenced yard is a must to keep him safe.

This sweet boy has hip dysplasia and previously had luxating patellas repaired in both knees. Despite this, he gets around just fine and handles his daily activities like a champ. He may not be your marathon training partner, but he’ll happily join you for leisurely strolls and then settle in for snuggles afterward. Mostly, he just wants to be near his people.

What truly sets him apart is his gentle, loving nature. He bonds deeply and looks at you with soulful eyes that say, “Thank you for loving me.” He’s the kind of dog who will quietly follow you from room to room, content just knowing he belongs.

If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate, low-key companion who will fill your home with warmth and sweetness, this precious Cavalier may be your perfect match. He’s ready to spend his life loving — and being loved — in a forever home.
