How can I prepare for my Cavalier adoption?

How can I adopt a Cavalier? Be ready when they’re ready!

The first step is to complete the Cavalier Rescue of Florida “adoption application” form. It’s important to read and complete all sections accurately, and don’t be afraid to let your personality shine through! This is the initial way the Placement Team gets to know you.


Our mission is to place a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel in a home that meets THEIR needs – we are all about finding that furever, happy place for each dog! This is a big difference between CRF and a shelter, and even some other Rescues. We not only focus on this beautiful breed, but their specific needs.

We consider ourselves “matchmakers” – the Placement Team matches the dog and their specific needs to a home and family that already offers what that particular dog needs. Though you might be enamored with a certain dog, if you do not have the home or lifestyle that the Cavalier needs, CRF will not match you to that Blenheim, Ruby Tri-Color or Black and Tans…male or female, senior or puppy.


If you are truly interested in adopting, it’s best if you apply to CRF before you even see a Cavie of interest on our website. If you happen to see a Cavalier that you ARE interested in – who wouldn’t fall in love with their sweet faces – be sure to completely read their bio and understand the implications for you and your lifestyle. If you offer what that specific Cavalier needs for a happy life, then mention their name and your interest in the application.

And, yes! We adopt to out-of-state families, not just Florida! Once approved, the adopting forever family is required to go to the home where the Cavalier is fostered to pick up their new furbaby. The options are that you drive or fly, but if you fly the Cavalier MUST travel with you in the plane’s cabin; this purebred is small enough to fit under the seat. We will NEVER ship a Cavalier or allow one of our Cavaliers to travel in cargo.


Love, the Cavies! Xo
