Meet the person behind Stuarthome CKCS... Kathryn Yonkers

We are small, dedicated AKC Cavalier King Charles Spaniel show breeder located in Michigan. We only breed to produce a future show prospect but do occasionally have pet puppies available for approved homes. We are committed to the breed future.

Stuarthome is our home, not a kennel and it is in the heart of Michigan's Wine Country referred to the Lake Michigan Wine Country.  Stuarthome is located in beautiful southwest corner of Michigan between Chicago, Illinois and Kalamazoo, Michigan.

We register our Cavaliers with the
American Kennel Club and have voting membership in the Parent Club, ACKCSC. This membership is considered the gold standard for the breed in the USA. The aim of Stuarthome CKCS is to breed to AKC breed standard with concentration on health, temperament and beauty.

The Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is a delightfully affectionate, playful, and intelligent little dog that repays his or her owner’s care and attention with an endearing devotion.

Cavaliers are not kennel dogs. Because of hundred years of close contact with their owners and their development as lap dogs, they make wonderful companions.

The CKCSs want to love you and be loved, to run and play in a safe place, and to sleep in a soft bed - preferably your bed, but they are willing to negotiate on that point! They get along well with children, cats, and other dogs.

It is important to study about the breed and wait for the right Cavalier for your family since this is a long commitment!

We support the ACKCS Rescue Trust and its efforts both at the national and local level. There are many rescue Cavaliers that need homes. Please take time to donate to this cause!

Please read
'Is a Rescue Cavalier the Right Dog For You?' For rescue Cavaliers try to work with Breed Specific (Cavalier) Rescue Organization since they know the needs of the breed.

We firmly believe in rescue and feel NO dog should be bred unless to improve on the breed and the breeder is prepared to keep all the puppies. Give and support your local all-breed (purebred & mixed breeds) rescue and breed specific (Cavalier) organizations!

If you want to adopt/rescue a 'crossbred dog' or 'designer dog', go to Pet Finders and search for Cavalier and many mixed breed dogs will display. There are many rescue dogs needing homes. Be careful in your search since some "rescue" organizations are not truly rescue groups but fronts for "reselling" dogs.

Look to the ACKCSC.org or the CKCSCMI.org for Cavalier King Charles Spaniels Breeders and to learn about Cavalier health.
