Cavalier King Charles Spaniel

Gables Dogs & Cats Home

Hello, I’m Aussie, and everything around me still feels very new. I’m only young and haven’t had many opportunities to experience the world, so I’m taking things one step at a time while I learn that new people, places and experiences can be safe.Right now, I find a lot of comfort in being around my siblings and puppy friends. They’ve helped me build a little confidence, and I’m slowly starting to come out of my shell. I’ve especially enjoyed spending time outside in the sunshine, and I’m beginning to discover how much fun toys can be when I have other puppies to play alongside.I’ve recently met an adult dog that I hadn’t known before. Although I was a little nervous at first, I was curious and wanted to say hello. Because of this, I think I’d really benefit from living with a calm, friendly dog who can show me the ropes. My new canine companion would need to be patient and let me approach at my own pace, rather than expecting me to be confident straight away.Walking on a lead is completely new to me, so I’m just getting used to wearing a harness before I begin exploring the outside world. There’s still lots for me to learn, but I’m making gentle progress every day.My ideal home will be peaceful, patient and understanding. Moving into a new environment is going to be a big change for me, so I’ll need plenty of time, space and reassurance while I settle in. With kindness, consistency and lots of gentle encouragement, I’m sure I’ll grow into a wonderful companion.*PLEASE NOTE – we are currently looking through application forms that are already on file.

BASIL the springer spaniel came over from Spain back in November 2024 and it became apparent, he had an issue with one of his hips. Hip dysplasia was diagnosed and a FHO (femoral head ostectomy) was carried out to ease his issue whilst in foster. Completely successful and then he was adopted in April 2025. Sadly BASIL has been returned to us a year later. Although not a problem with the husband, the wife adopter had issues with him pulling on a lead and reacting to other dogs. BASIL is in foster near Grantham, Lincolnshire and living with dogs and cats (no issues with either). He is a very cuddly boy, jumps straight in the car and travels well. Sleeps in the kitchen at night with the other fosters and is fully housetrained. Not particularly prey driven and loves to be in the garden watching the world go by. He is a calm 4 year old and loves his rural walks. He would be looking for a quieter home with someone who enjoys their walks in the woods or fields. He would so love his own sofa again with someone to love him for the rest of his days. BASIL is microchipped, vaccinated, castrated and had recent parasite treatments.

CALVIN, we will be brutally honest, is a medium mixed breed of unknown quantities, but is 100% gorgeous! He is in foster in Chippenham, Wiltshire. He was one of 80 dogs rescued from a Spanish perrera that was closing with no options for it’s occupants, other than to be put to sleep. He’d been in the perrera for quite a while with no bedding, decent food or any human interaction, so for him to arrive into a UK foster home and settle so well is a great indicator to his temperament. Words from his foster mum, “Calvin is a really lovely boy. He loves to have belly rubs and will roll over to ask for one. He’s very sweet”. He has been living with a resident dog, teenagers and chickens in the garden (although I believe there was an incident whereby he carried said chicken to a new location!). He can get anxious around other dogs when out on a walk and this will need further work with a calm and relaxed adopter, who will introduce him to good experiences when meeting new dogs. We would love to see him in a home with another calm, maybe older dog, so he can learn from their reactions to new situations. Sadly, whilst in foster, CALVIN has been diagnosed with glaucoma and had one eye removed. There is potential for it to develop in the other eye, hence his need for a long term foster home (Save Our Spaniels would pay for all his veterinary care going forward). CALVIN is housetrained and has been left for a couple of hours with no incident, he just settles on his bed and sleeps. Happy to eat, share toys and chews with the resident dog and instantly friendly when meeting new people. He is microchipped, vaccinated, castrated and parasite treated and has a Spanish Passport.

Carry is a sweet and gentle girl who came to us from a breeder looking for a fresh start. When she first arrived, she was very scared and unsure of people, but she has already made some wonderful progress during her time with us and is becoming more confident every day.Carry is now a happy and lively little lady with a constantly wagging tail. She has discovered toys and is learning how to play with them, something she is thoroughly enjoying, and she has also revealed herself to be quite the foodie, which has been a great help in building her confidence.Although Carry is still nervous about direct handling and may move away if approached too quickly, she is incredibly curious and always likes to be close by, watching what is going on. She is happy to approach people for a sniff and will gently take treats from your hand, showing just how far she has come already. We feel it won't be long before she starts to feel comfortable accepting gentle fusses from those she trusts.Carry will be looking for a calm and quiet adult-only home where she can continue to build her confidence at her own pace. She relies heavily on other dogs for reassurance and will need at least one kind and confident resident dog in her new home. A canine companion will help guide her through new experiences and provide comfort as she settles into family life.As Carry has never lived in a home before, her adopters will need to be understanding while she learns the basics, such as house training and walking on a lead. We have not yet started harness training with her, but as her confidence continues to grow, we feel she is becoming ready to begin exploring this next step. Her adopters should be prepared to continue this training gently and positively once she is home.Carry is the kind of dog who can brighten even the darkest of days. She is an absolute joy to spend time with and, in a loving home where she is given patience, understanding, and plenty of reassurance, we believe she will truly blossom into a happy and trusting companion.Our vets have noted that Carry has a Grade 3 patella luxation in her right hind leg. This is not causing her any issues at present and may improve with gentle exercise, but it will need to be monitored by her adopters and their veterinary team. Should treatment be required in the future, this condition would not be covered by insurance.Carry has a travel document.Carry has been given the Gift of Life by Wendy Bowen

CHABELITA is in foster in West Pinchbeck, Lincolnshire and ready to find her forever home. From the moment she arrived into her foster home, she has been so well behaved, loves her walks, especially where she can have long sniffs. Happy to meet dogs and people when out and about. Sleeps in the fosterer’s bedroom in her bed alongside the resident dogs, but would probably sleep elsewhere. She has been exposed to older children (teenagers) and she was very happy and settled with them. She is generally instantly friendly with all new people. She was found on wasteland in Spain with a podenco and clearly had been dumped. Her first time in a home and she has flourished. CHABBY is housetrained and happy to share food and toys with the other resident dogs (but will need some supervision with chews!). She has not been off lead, only used long lead so far with the foster family. She does show interest in birds etc, so could have a slight prey drive, so off lead needs to be part of on going training. She is a well behaved, loving little girl and would respond so well where she can get lots of cuddles and attention. She doesn't gulp her food or snatch treats. CHABBY would be very happy as an only dog with someone around most of the day (can be left for an hour or two), but equally would love a resident dog to cuddle up with. All she wants is cuddles, lovely walks and a warm cosy bed. She is microchipped, vaccinated, spayed, had recent parasite treatments and has a Spanish Passport.

Cloe is a very worried little lady who has come to us from a breeding environment and is still learning that people can be kind. It is clear she has had very little positive experience with humans in the past, and as a result she finds trust incredibly difficult. She can be flighty when worried and may choose to protect herself if she feels pressured or uncomfortable.Cloe is a sweet but complex girl who has already shown us that, once she truly trusts someone, she has a wonderful and affectionate side. With her favourite member of staff, the very first person who cared for her when she arrived, she is a completely different dog. She happily approaches for attention, enjoys gentle fusses, is comfortable being picked up, and greets him with excitement and affection. Watching the bond they have built is incredibly special and shows just how much potential Cloe has when given the time she needs to feel safe.However, trust does not come easily to Cloe, and she remains very wary of most people. She is still uncomfortable with handling from those she does not know well and may nip if she feels she needs to protect herself. This is not through malice, but simply because she is frightened and has not yet learned that she does not need to be afraid.Cloe will need a calm and quiet adult-only home with no visiting children and adopters who have experience of very worried ex-breeding dogs. Her new family will need to understand that building a relationship with her is likely to take time and that progress will come through patience, consistency, and allowing her to make her own choices.The best way to win Cloe over is to let her approach on her own terms. She needs people who can resist the temptation to rush her and instead allow her to work out for herself that they are safe and trustworthy. Once she reaches that point, we believe she has the potential to become a truly loving and devoted companion.Cloe absolutely loves the company of other dogs and will need a kind, calm, and confident resident dog in her new home. Having a canine friend gives her comfort and reassurance and will help guide her as she learns about life beyond the rescue.As she has never lived in a home before, Cloe's adopters will need to be patient as she learns all about home life, including house training and other everyday routines. She does not yet walk on a lead and harness and will need time to become comfortable with handling before this training can begin.Although progress with Cloe may be slow at times, she has already shown that she is capable of forming strong bonds when given the opportunity. In a loving home where she has all the time in the world to build trust, we believe she will continue to blossom and reveal the sweet little girl we know is there.Cloe has had 7 teeth extracted at the time of her spay, as well as an inguinal hernia repaired. She also had a lump removed from her right upper eyelid.Cloe has a travel document.Cloe has been given the Gift of Life by Carol Unsworth
