Hilda Barfield

Hilda Barfield breeds Cavalier King Charles Spaniels in Dunnellon, FL, on Florida’s Nature Coast near Ocala. With more than eight years of involvement in Cavalier King Charles Spaniel breed clubs, she follows health testing guidelines for heart, eye, and joint assessments. A former volunteer with small dog rescues, she remains committed to the breed’s welfare beyond her own litters. Puppies are born and raised in her home, receiving daily socialization and gentle handling from family members.

Her breeding program emphasizes temperament and conformation, reflecting her background in handling shows and therapy dog preparation. Puppies grow up with supervised access to fenced yards and regular exposure to household noises, children, and other animals. Each puppy leaves with a detailed care package, up-to-date vet records and ongoing guidance for a smooth transition. Dogs trace to European lines noted for longevity and affectionate, gentle dispositions.
