I'm the breeder behind Huggins Gems Cavalier King Charles Spaniels located in Monroe, NC. We offer top-quality puppies from carefully planned litters. We focus on temperament, soundness, and beauty. We love our dogs! Our dogs live in the house with us or with our children, where they are socialized and loved. Our females come from champion bloodlines, and we are showing some of our better females to get their championships.

Our puppies are raised in our home, where they are loved and cared for. They get to go outside on pretty days, and our sunroom opens onto an open porch for rainy days. I utilize the following enrichment methods: Chew, e.g. Bone, Toys, e.g. Ball, Household Desensitization, Socialized with Adult Dogs, Socialized with Cats, and Socialized with Children.
All of our puppies are checked by my vet and receive initial vaccines before they go to their forever homes.
We send our puppies home with Microchip.
Michelle 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.
“We do not ship our puppies. We love to have families come to our home to see the puppies and chose the perfect one for them.”
