I'm the breeder behind CaliCavaliers located in Fresno, CA. We decided to start breeding to share the best possible puppies with excellent personalities, temperament, and most of all health! Each of our dogs has brought so much happiness to us throughout their lives. We want to do our part to produce wonderful, healthy dogs that can bring other people joy as well, and we strive to provide each of our puppies with loving homes where they can live happy lives. All of our adults have been health screened and live happy, healthy lives in our home in the California Valley.
About Sam
We are located on a 12 acre property located in the foothills in the Central Valley of Fresno California.
What makes Sam’s program special
Health is upmost important to us, breeding from only healthy and happy well tempered and mannered dogs with the future of the breed at our focus.
Sam has been certified by Good Dog's screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you're ready to reach out, feel free to ask any questions about the breed, their program, or specific puppies. You'll also have the chance to share a bit about yourself and what you're looking for in a new companion. Together, you'll choose the puppy that's right for you, stay in touch with regular updates, and plan how to bring your new puppy home.
Puppy prices range from $2,500 - $4,500 and include a non-refundable deposit of $500.
“Our puppies will be well socialized, dewormed, vet checked and first vaccinations completed. All of our puppies will be AKC registered with limited papers(pet only), unless otherwise discussed. Deposits are required to hold puppies while they grow, deposits are non refundable, however the exception would be if we cancel for unexpected reasons.”
Sam may provide a written contract or health guarantee when you purchase a puppy. This helps protect both you and your breeder, ensuring that you both have a clear understanding of the terms of your puppy purchase. If Sam offers a contract or guarantee, the details will be personalized by them. If you have any questions or want to know more, don’t hesitate to reach out to Sam directly.
Our puppies are trained to use puppy pads, given lots of play time and socializing opportunities with both other dogs and people.
All Puppies are given first vaccination and dewormed before they leave to their new homes, as well as health checked by our long trusted family vet.
We send our puppies home with Puppy starter kit, Basic obedience & manners, Blanket with mom & littermates’ scent, Food & treats, Registration, Vet records, and Initial potty training.
Sam offers options to help you easily get your new puppy home.
If you’re nearby, you can visit in person to pick up your pup. If you’re far away, you can travel by car or plane.
Work with a trusted flight nanny or transporter to get your puppy comfortably dropped off at an airport or meeting point close to home.
Why Sam started breeding
We have been breeding for 18 years, growing up around animals and a huge network of friendships within the dog showing world. We decided to have a litter of puppies the first time to keep a pup back and from there we were hooked! We take pride in producing healthy puppies for selected families to enjoy.
