    Hello. I am just wondering if anyone knows a good king charles breeder? I had my dog Charlie for 12 years and he died last week. We are all devastated, especially my little sister.
    I would appreciate if anyone on here knows any good breeder so we could get another little friend. We would go back to the guy we bought Charlie form but he's not breeding anymore.
    Also I lave in Galway, so anywhere around the north west would be ideal, but totally not important.

    Thank you.

    Just to clarify op, is it a King Charles, or a Cavalier King Charles you're looking for?

    I'm pretty sure there's a website of an organisation specialising in rescue Cavaliers? Would you consider a rescue?
    I know some of them are abandoned at the onset of cardiac conditions but not all are.
    Ill try find the website and post the URL

    Mod note: Dingle_berry, I have removed your link to the rescue as it's against the forum charter to do so. Any recommendations for individual rescues should be done by PM.
    Thanks,
    DBB

    Yes we have considered getting a rescue. I myself would love a rescue but my previous dog had a bad heart and we spent a fortune on vet bills over the year with it, not that I minded spending the money but we were worn out emotionally with it.
    For the sake of my little sis id prefer to get a puppy and try to be as sure as we can that it is as healthy as can be.
    Thank you for providing the link

    Hi OP,

    The breed club has it's own website http://www.irishcavalierclub.com/index.html

    There are contact details on there for their puppy register, make sure any breeder you consider buying from has their dogs fully health tested. There is lots of helpful info on http://www.cavalierhealth.org/ on what to look out for.
