About Beckwith Cavaliers

steve and becky

Steve and Becky have combined their passions to create what has become Beckwith Cavaliers. Becky truly enjoys spending time with her dogs training and showing them. Steve discovered that he loves photography and is always seen with a camera at the shows taking a picture for an ad or catching those beautiful movement shots. 

​

Steve also loves photographing the puppies and always ends up with puppies crawling all over him while trying to take pictures. We truly enjoy raising the puppies and seeing their personalities blossom.

Becky has been associated with dogs almost her entire life. She started showing in 4-H with a Lhasa Apso named Gabriel. She also showed him in AKC Juniors and put a Companion Dog obedience title on him.

​

Our first exposure to a Cavalier was Copper, a Ruby. Our oldest son, Jeff, wanted a dog and after spending several months researching the different breeds we decided on a Cavalier. Jeff also did 4-H with Copper taking top honors at both the county and state levels in 4-H in showmanship and obedience.

Becky’s first Cavalier was a Tricolor puppy named Annie. Annie earned titles in obedience and rally, obtained her Canine Good Citizen title and also became a Canadian, AKC, and International Champion. This experience propelled Becky back into the showing environment where she has since put numerous championship titles on dogs.

Our Cavaliers are dual registered in AKC and CKCSC,USA . The following testing is done on all of our Cavaliers before breeding: hips, patellas, heart & eye (yearly by board certified veterinarians) and DNA testing for Dry Eye, Curly Coat, and Episodic Falling Syndrome. This standard has not waivered in 20 years with the hope of breeding healthy, long-lived Cavaliers.

We have been members in good standing with the Cavaliers of Puget Sound AKC regional club since 2002 where Becky has served in various capacities including club treasurer and show chair. Becky also belongs to CKCSC, USA and the Cavaliers of the West, a CKCSC, USA regional club.
