Linus loves a soft blanket, but he must play lots before nap time! Little Linus is the runt of the litter but that absolutely does not slow him down. He makes sure his siblings know that he is just as tough as they are.
Linus loves being outside, toys, and treats. He doesn't mind hanging by himself but always prefers to be with his foster mom. He gives lots of kisses, probably because his foster mom gave him so many kisses as he was growing.
Linus would be fine in a home with other pups or as an only pup. Overall, he has a more laid-back personality.
**Linus does have a grade one heart murmur. It is very soft and mild, and likely an innocent puppy murmur that will resolve as he grows. However, heart murmurs are something to be aware of in all Cavaliers. Please read our Cavalier Information Page in full BEFORE applying to adopt Linus or any of our other Cavaliers.
ADOPTION REQUIREMENTS:
Secure fenced in yard. Linus has lots of puppy energy and loves to run and play, so a physically fenced in yard is a must. We do NOT allow invisible/electric fences to be used for any of our dogs.
Family with the time and patience required to properly train and socialize a puppy.
Cavaliers do not tolerate isolation well. They were bred to be lap/companion dogs and become extremely attached to the people they love. Linus will require a family who is able to be with him most of the time.
Home without children under 8 years of age.
Cavalier savvy family who understands the potential for health issues in Cavaliers is preferred.
Linus is current on age-appropriate vaccinations, deworming, and microchipped. His adoption fee is $700 plus a neuter deposit of $150, which will be refunded upon proof of neuter being provided.
