The House of Wiggle Waggle

We are home breeders with a small kennel specializing in 100% AKC Blenheim and Tri-Color Cavalier King Charles Spaniels from Championship Bloodlines. Cavs are toy-sized bundles of love. They are one of the friendliest breeds, showering affection on their family and happily getting along with other dogs, kids, cats, and total strangers. In fact, strangers are friends they haven’t met yet.

2. The b

eautiful large round eyes are a breed hallmark. The warm, dark brown color of their eyes and the cushioning under the eyes create a melting, limpid look which contributes to their gentle expression.

3. Cavalier King Charles Spaniels makes great therapy dogs. Originally bred as companion dogs, it’s only natural that they excel as therapy dogs. If your Cav has a loving, warm temperament and you have the time and dedication to work with him, consider the AKC Therapy Dog Program.

4. Yes, they’re lapdogs, but they’re also sporting dogs. Cavs retain their original hunting instincts and can be off like a shot after small creatures or if they catch a scent. They may be so intent on the chase that even a well-trained dog may not come when called. Best not to let them off-leash when out and about and to have a fenced yard at home.

5. The Cav is a natural athlete. A combination of athleticism and trainability help the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel excel at sports like agility, rally, and obedience.

6. They’re named for royalty. Both King Charles I and his son, Charles II were devotees of the breed. Charles II was so attached to his spaniels that they went with him everywhere. He issued a royal decree that the dogs should be allowed in all public spaces, including Parliament. The breed was even named for the monarch.

7. Cavalier King Charles Spaniels come in four colors. The patterns and colors of their coats are distinct. They include:

Blenheim — chestnut markings on a white ground with a white blaze between the ears and a lozenge-shaped marking in the center, called the “Blenheim spot.”
Tricolor — black markings on a white ground; with tan markings over the eyes and on their cheeks, as well as inside their ears and on the underside of the tail. Ruby — a rich red all over. Black-and-tan — black with tan markings like the tricolor, as well as on their chest and legs. The House Of Wiggle Waggle specializes in Blenheim and Tricolor puppies. The Cavalier King Charles Spaniel wears his connection to British history in his breed's name. Cavaliers are the best of two worlds, combining the gentle attentiveness of a toy breed with the verve and athleticism of a sporting spaniel. The Cavalier's all-around beauty, regal grace, and even temper mark him as one of dogdom's noblemen. A toy spaniel is no more than 13 inches high. The Cavalier draws you in with his face: The sweet, gentle, melting expression emanating from large, round eyes is a breed hallmark. Another is the silky, richly colored coat that can be one of four distinct varieties (described in this page's Fun Facts). Cavaliers may be aristocrats, but they gladly descend from their royal high horse for a backyard frolic or a squirrel chase. They get along nicely with children and other dogs. Adaptable Cavaliers do equally well with active owners and homebodies. They can be upbeat athletes or shameless couch potatoes, depending on an owner's lifestyle.
