Welcome to Cavaliers of House Northup! We have been breeding exceptional Cavie's since 2010 and strive to breed for breed standards and health. Our priority in breeding these wonderful dogs is their health and conformity to breed standards. Due to this, we only breed the carriers of perfect health and proven in the show ring. Unfortunately, there are too many irresponsible breeders who's only projection is profit, this will never be our priority. All of our dogs are AKC registered, OFA tested, and show proven to prove our lines and our puppies Our wonderful mommas have 1-4 litters in their lifetime and enjoy retirement in love and comfort. My dogs are treated like family, vacationing with us and enjoying daily walks and outings. They are spoiled rotten! Just the way it should be!
All About Our Breeding Program
Unfortunately, there is a common misconception around breeders that should be aimed at "Backyard Breeders" and "Puppy Mills". These places do not care for the breed standard or health testing, this creates public distrust and confusion in the community as to who is a "Reputable Breeder" and who is not. My goal is to educate future families and the public that the preservation of the breed is paramount. Know what to look for in an Ethical Breeder and ask these simple questions,
​
-
What is your businesses core values and goals?
-
Why do you breed this particular breed?
-
Where can I find your dog's OFA health testing?
-
Do you show your dogs in confirmation and/or have proven champion lines?
-
What does your contract include for health guarantees?
