About the Author

Norma Moffat bought her first Cavalier King Charles Spaniel as a pet in 1981 and fell in love with the sweet nature and glamorous look of the breed. Since then she has bred and shown more than sixty champions, some of them topwinning show dogs, under her kennel prefix of Brinklow, which is the name of her home village in England. Despite her success with Cavaliers in the ring, she emphasizes that all her dogs are beloved pets first and show dogs second.
Norma has written columns and articles on Cavaliers for the magazine "Dogs in Canada." She is a life member of the Canadian Kennel Club and past president of the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Club of Canada. She lives at Brinklow Hill, a ten-acre nature preserve in the woods on the beautiful Niagara Escarpment in Ontario, where the dogs have plenty of room to run and play.
