Lucky Star Cavalier Rescue, originally founded in 1999 and incorporated in Florida in 2001, grew out of the need to rescue Cavalier King Charles Spaniels who are being kept in inhumane conditions for the sole purpose of breeding to supply puppies to pet stores. We are comprised entirely of volunteers who assist in the rescue, transportation, and placement of these gentle dogs throughout the United States and Canada. We also actively strive to educate the public about the horror of puppy mills and the health issues so often present in purebred puppies purchased from pet stores or on-line instead of from reputable breeders.
