Hi, I'm Carolyn, and I've loved dogs my whole life. Growing up surrounded by animals, I developed a deep passion for their care and companionship. As a qualified dog trainer, that passion inspired me to start Palace Puppies — where I raise healthy, happy, and well-socialised puppies to become beloved family members.
Every puppy I breed is more than just an animal to me — they're part of my extended family. From the moment they're born, they're nurtured in a warm, safe environment, ensuring they grow into confident, loving companions. I prioritise their health, temperament, and socialisation, so they're ready to bring happiness into their new homes.
Myself and my three teenagers adore and thrive on the love and affection of our dogs. We thoroughly spoil them and believe they deserve the best of our love and care ♥
Every puppy receives premium food, comprehensive vet care, and a comfort toy scented with mum to help them settle into their new home.
At Palace Puppies, raising exceptional dogs starts with thoughtful, science-backed practices during their earliest days. As a qualified dog trainer, Carolyn applies two foundational techniques — Early Scent Introduction (ESI) and Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS).
Exposing puppies to different scents during their early days encourages natural curiosity and sharpens sensory development — fostering confidence and adaptability especially beneficial for family companion and therapy roles.
Gentle exercises including touch stimulation and temperature exposure promote healthier nervous system development, resilience to stress, and overall well-being — proven to improve cardiovascular health, immunity, and emotional stability.
The Palace Puppies Guardian Program offers families the opportunity to adopt a high-quality puppy at a reduced rate, providing the dog with a loving forever home while participating in our breeding program. This program helps avoid kennel environments, ensuring our dogs live happy, healthy lives in family settings.
Guardian families receive a high-quality puppy at a reduced cost and become part of the Palace Puppies family.
Care for the dam as a beloved family member, especially during heat cycles. Ensure she is well loved, exercised, and nurtured as part of your household.
Ensure availability for health checks, breeding procedures (natural or AI), and related vet visits. Palace Puppies coordinates and covers all breeding-related vet costs.
Return the dam to Palace Puppies approximately one week before whelping, where she will give birth and her puppies will be raised in our home.
The dam stays with Palace Puppies for around 6 weeks during whelping and puppy care. Guardians are welcome to visit the pups when appropriate.
Palace Puppies covers all desexing costs and transfers full permanent ownership to the guardian family. Your dog is yours for life.
The program prioritises the welfare of our dogs and ensures clear, supportive communication with guardian families throughout the entire journey.
As a dedicated breeder and qualified dog trainer, I've witnessed firsthand the transformative impact that pedigree and ethical breeding can have on these beloved breeds. There's more to breeding than simply pairing two dogs — it's about honoring their history, protecting their health, and ensuring that every puppy born is set up for a life of happiness and vitality.
Pedigree breeding isn't just about lineage; it's about safeguarding the qualities that make Cocker Spaniels and Cavaliers unique. Cocker Spaniels are celebrated for their silky coats and friendly dispositions, while Cavaliers are adored for their affectionate nature and iconic expressions. Responsible breeding helps these attributes shine through in every generation.
Ethical breeding prioritises the health of both the parents and the puppies. Reputable breeders conduct health screenings for conditions known to affect these breeds, such as hip dysplasia, heart issues, and eye problems. In Cavaliers, screening for mitral valve disease (MVD) is a critical step in breeding programs.
Cocker Spaniels and Cavaliers are known for their gentle, family-friendly temperaments. Through thoughtful breeding and early socialisation, we can nurture these innate qualities. Puppies raised in loving environments, exposed to various sights and sounds, grow into well-rounded dogs who adapt easily to family life.
Ethical breeding means putting the well-being of the dogs above all else. This includes:
A pedigree isn't just a piece of paper; it's a story of a dog's heritage. It allows breeders and owners to trace a puppy's lineage, understand their genetic background, and ensure they've been bred responsibly.
Ethical breeding is a labor of love — a commitment to the dogs we cherish and the families who welcome them into their lives. By prioritising health, temperament, and breed preservation, we ensure that Cocker Spaniels and Cavaliers continue to thrive as loyal, healthy, and loving companions for generations to come.
