Cavalier Love Campaign

Cavalier Love Campaign

The Cavalier Alliance is excited to announce our February campaign to help us meet the needs of dogs in rescue and also support important health research for our beloved breed. What a better time to show our love than during Valentine’s month.

Gift for Recurring Donation Signups: We are asking everyone to consider signing up on our website at http://www.cavalieralliance.org/donate/ or via paypal to make an automatic donation every month. Every amount, no matter how small, is valued and helps care for the dogs in our program! Anyone who signs up with an ongoing donation of any size will receive the lovely dog tag shown above. It is 1.25″ nickel and is blank on the back for you to engrave your dog’s information. They can also be used as a tag charm, a bracelet charm or a pendant.

We also will send one to anyone who makes a one-time donation of $75 or more.

Other incentives: Everyone who signs up for an automatic donation will be eligible for a drawing to win one of two custom designed watches The watch comes with either a black or brown leather band and has silver stainless steel face and back. How cute is this design! Pre-orders for the watches will also be available in February – starting next week. Our heart tag charm will also be available to order on our site.

Welcome Lucy & Zoey

These two sweet pups came to the Cavalier Alliance as a transfer from another group for specialist care.  Their initial vet did a great job of getting them stabilized and we will continue that care.  Lucy has ulcers on her right eye that need reviewed by a specialist and Zoey will need help with a back leg that keeps slipping out of place.

Sponsor Highlight:  Pink Petunia Paws

As part of our early fundraising activities, we have been fortunate to receive support from small businesses who donated items to our auction! In the weeks ahead, we are going to feature their stories and links to their shops so you all can get to know them better!
Today’s story is from Catherine Carmichael, owner of Pink Petunia Paws and Pink Petunia Cottage Dolls (https://www.facebook.com/pages/Pink-Petunia-Cottage-Dolls/129134503765346?fref=ts).


When we asked Catherine about her experience with Cavaliers, she explained,
“We got Oliver almost 10 years ago, one year after my mom got her first Cavalier -Toby. She then decided to adopt one from Cavalier Rescue USA and I met Paula Bailey when she came for a home visit at my parents. They adopted Nevis a beautiful Ruby. I have a little shop where I sell handmade Waldorf Dolls and Quilts and would ask Paula if they needed any donations and of course they did. LOL So I would auction off a doll or quilt and have the high bidder send the money to Cavalier Rescue. I tried to do that as much as I could.


Paula and I kept in touch and my mom adopted another dog from them, Charlie. Then I decided to foster and had our wonderful Phoebe come into our lives. I knew I would be a foster failure that first night.


I don’t foster now, because we have 2 Cavaliers with serious health issues, Oliver has diabetes and is blind and Sadie has SM, Hydrocephalus, IVDD and had patella surgery last year. My way of contributing is donating my quilts, quilted pillows and now my collars and leashes. I love the Cavalier Rescue groups and especially love Cavalier Alliance because of the multiple health issues of this wonderful breed.”

Catherine’s beautiful handiwork can be found on her FaceBook pages and in her Etsy store at:
