At Minvalonnie, our approach is thoughtful, intentional and centred around doing what is right for our dogs and for the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel breed.
Rather than focusing on quantity or convenience, we prioritise careful planning, responsible decision‑making and a nurturing, home‑based environment for every dog and every litter.
This page provides an overview of how we work, with links to explore each part of our programme in more detail.
Our breeding programme is built on clear principles: responsibility, transparency, compassion and long‑term commitment.
We believe in doing things properly, with integrity and respect for the breed.

Health is at the centre of every decision we make.
All breeding dogs complete the full range of health testing appropriate for the breed, and every pairing is planned with long‑term wellbeing in mind.

Our puppies are raised in the centre of our home, surrounded by real family life.
From birth to 12 weeks, they follow a structured development and socialisation programme designed to build confidence, resilience and emotional stability.
