Canterbury Cavaliers

Canterbury Cavaliers, a breeder of cavalier King Charles spaniels in Canterbury, NH, is located in Merrimack County near Manchester. Patricia Messier has bred these spaniels for over a decade, maintains memberships in local and national breed clubs, and follows recommended health screenings for heart and eye conditions. Each litter is raised in a family home where puppies receive daily handling and early socialization alongside children and other pets. They have access to a securely fenced yard and indoor living spaces to encourage balanced development.

Her focus on temperament and sound structure helps many dogs become calm companions or therapy animals in local care facilities. Each puppy leaves with up-to-date vaccinations, a deworming schedule, and documentation of its pedigree. The breeder offers ongoing support and guidance to help each dog settle into its new family environment. Adults share daily routines, enjoy regular veterinary checkups, and are accustomed to greeting visitors warmly before training sessions begin.
