Welcome to Cavalier Rescue USA

Romeo in Dassel, MN

My name is Romeo and true to my name, I will steal your heart!

I’m a 4 year old black and tan Cavalier born 05/12/2021 that is always up for adventure, just ask my always wagging tail :). But my favorite thing in the whole wide world is to cuddle my people, while giving and getting all the love.

I have good manners, and I know the basic skills… sit, stay, come, but no need to ask me twice to come and cuddle. Once I get to know you I’ll also let you know when I need to take care of business with some “hey you” barks at the door. I’m a true romantic who loves taking long walks with the ones I love, while having some meaningful conversations. I am laid back and a go along kind of guy but can be excitable on leash. We’re working on that.

I’m a true Cavalier when it comes to meeting new people & other dogs, I’ve never met anyone I didn’t like and who, honestly, doesn’t fall in love with me. My foster mom has these things called cats. I was a bit nervous at first, but have found out they are pretty cool too and can be great napping buddies.

The vet says I’m a healthy boy and that I’m at a good weight at 19.5 lbs.

I really want to find my furever home, will you take a chance on this star-crossed lover?

If you are interested in this little lover, please submit an application if you haven’t already and then contact Diane Parrish Coordinator WI/MN by email cavalierrescueusa.mn.wi@gmail.com and let her know you’d like to adopt this pup.

Maxine in Schertz, TX

Meet Maxine, an adorable 8 year-old Cavalier/Pug mix weighing in at 26 pounds. She came to us on short notice after her owner was in an urgent situation and could not keep her beloved pup.

Maxine is a sweet and happy girl who loves to please her humans. She loves lounging on the couch for a good snooze, but also enjoys her daily walks.

She is completely potty trained and sleeps peacefully in a crate in her foster parents bedroom at night. She came to us as an owner surrender and has since made a full recovery from a UTI and an ear infection. She is now fully cleared and healthy, according to our vet.

Maxine has blended in beautifully with her other three dogs in her foster home and two cats. She gets along wonderfully with children. She is very food motivated, gentle and ready to bring joy and companionship to her forever home.

If you are interested in the sweet girl and think you are a good match for her please fill out an online application (if you haven’t already) and send an e-mail to the Rescue Coordinator Sarah Swanson at 210cavalierrescueusa@gmail.com.

CJ in Kenmore, WA

CJ is an 11-year-old female Blenheim Cavalier. She’s a sweet, gentle soul and looking for a special person/family to show her kindness and unconditional love. Sadly, before coming into rescue, she hadn’t had either for a long time and was very mistreated.

CJ spends most of her time resting in her kennel, but she really perks up when out exploring in the yard. This sweet girl likes gentle head and neck scratches, but she doesn’t seek out attention. She likes short walks around the neighborhood but needs you to carry her outside to get started. A lot of things are scary for CJ, and so she’s happiest at home where it’s quiet and she feels safe.

CJ has been gaining weight and is feeling better since getting much-needed dental work done. She’s been diagnosed with a grade 5 heart murmur by the cardiologist and started on a twice daily heart medication (pimobendan). She was recently started on the medication ursodiol after an incidental finding of biliary mineralization on thoracic radiographs. She’s a small Cavalier and weighs about 14 lbs. Her beautiful Cavalier coat is growing back in and she’s looking much healthier. She’s house trained with regular breaks and will let you know she needs to go out by pacing around.

CJ will do best in an adult home since kids can be a scary for her. She needs a fenced yard so she doesn’t have to go potty on leash, and so she can enjoy her safe outdoor space. She’s looking for a special home with a lot of patience and people who understand dogs that are anxious and slow to trust. She’s okay with gentle-natured dogs of similar size.

If you’d like to welcome CJ (or both CJ and Brook) to your family, please complete the online application (if you haven’t previously) and email rescue coordinator Melissa Cincotta at happycavaliers04@gmail.com so she knows to consider your application.

Flower in Dallas, TX

Flower’s spirited, 11-year-young demeanor is the perfect blend of chill contentment and inquisitive explorer. She navigates the world with cheerful determination and a joyful heart, allowing her nose to lead the way! She is a tricolor Cavalier mix spayed female.

Doggy doors lead Flower to her Zen place, laying in a sunny spot in the grass; evenings spent snuggled on the couch with belly rubs aplenty make her the happiest girl in the world.

While her eyes may have dimmed with age, and she may be napping too hard on occasion to hear you call her name, Flower’s spunky attitude and her unique version of happy doggy zoomies earned her the nickname Flower Power! Once she has mapped the lay of the land in a new place, Flower could surprise even Christopher Columbus with her navigation abilities. Don’t let her age be a hindrance – she certainly doesn’t think it is!

Flower’s delight is meeting other pups and she has yet to meet a stranger – whether 2 legged or 4. Car rides are a breeze, giving her a cornucopia of scents to savor (and a little wind in her hair!). Have a peanut butter dog chewy? She might make you her new bestie if they’re available daily.

Butt scratches will have Flower dancing in delight, responding with enthusiastic tail wags and sweet kisses in return. Flower Power thrives on gentle affection, cozy naps, and leisurely strolls where she explores at her own delightful pace. Her resilience is inspiring, her personality irresistible, and her companionship truly heartwarming.

Flower would flourish in a calm, nurturing home where she can continue to show off just how amazing special pets with unique talents like hers can be.

She came to us needing a lot of medical care. She has had a dental, treated for irritated skin, treated for ear infections and we continue to use an ear wash weekly, has gotten up to date on vaccines, seen an eye specialist, and was treated for heart worms. She is now feeling so much better. She is vision impaired and we think sees some shadows. She gets a bit of stiffness in her rear end and we give her carprofen which really helps.

Are you ready to open your heart and home to the fabulous Flower Power? She promises endless gratitude, cuddles, and a daily reminder that love conquers all.

If you feel you can provide a loving home please email Shelby at shelbynfields@gmail.com to express your interest. If you have not already filled out an online application, please do so.

Mallory in New Hope, PA

If you’re the type of person who likes to plan ahead, petite, six-year-old Blenheim girl Mallory is exactly the Cavalier you need to save on your heating bill next fall and winter. She is a total snugglebug who wants to be with you all the time, whether relaxing on your lap or next to you. In every season, you won’t be able to resist her big, bright Cavalier eyes. Mal is quite shy and will build trust with a regular routine of tiny treats and a calm household. She is generally a mellow dog, and when she isn’t napping, she explores the fenced yard with her foster cat and dog siblings.

On leash in her harness she walks well, though she does take time to stop and smell the flowers, and lots of other things, too. She is friendly with other dogs, although she will bark at them if she sees them from inside her foster parents’ house. Occasionally she gets a little zoomy and plays with a toy or a tennis ball or chases a moth in the yard. Presently she sleeps at night in a crate in her foster parents’ bedroom, but her foster mom and dad are sure she would enjoy sleeping in the big bed.

Mallory was released by a Lancaster County breeder into rescue. In foster care she was vetted and is heart clear. She has been spayed and had a dental during which she had 16 teeth removed. You might notice the cutest little underbite or Elvis-ish snarl. She may have some hearing impairment but at a certain volume, she does hear her name. Like a lot of Cavaliers, she has a good appetite and will gobble her kibble and wet food – in fact, breakfast and dinner are her two favorite times of day, so her foster parents are careful not to overfeed as she is at just the right weight at 12 pounds. Mallory had a seizure like episode in the car shortly after she was picked up from the farm. She immediately saw the vet and was noticed to be stressed and had high blood pressure but her blood work was normal. She was put on blood pressure medication and was weaned off of it in reacue and no other seizure like behaviors were seen. The veterinarian thought it was isolated stress related incident.

She is still fine-tuning her potty training but has made steady progress. Rainy days aren’t her favorite, so some extra effort is needed to help her focus on pottying on those days. You have to watch to make sure she does her business. Car rides, baths and brushing are a-ok with cute-as-a button Mallory. As long as her human is nearby, she’s content.

Mallory would do best in a calm home with no kids or older kids preferred. She is not the leader of the pack but likes to see out the other dogs in the house so another small dog as a companion would be preferred.

If you think you will be a good fit to be a family for Mallory, please make sure you have an updated application on file and email Melissa MacMullin (cavalierrescueusapa@gmail.com) to let her know you want to be considered.
