Jakey's Blankeys mission is to provide love, security, warmth, and a sense of comfort to Cavalier King Charles Spaniels scared, sick, recovering, abandoned, or otherwise in need through the gift of new and lovingly donated blankets. Jakey's Blankeys is a program through Cavalier Rescue of Alabama and inspired by Jake, a very special rescued Cavalier who loved his blanket.

After a life of commercial breeding and neglect, #271, Jake, was rescued off the auction block on July 11, 2015 in Wheaton, Missouri, and welcomed into Cavalier Rescue of Alabama.

We wrapped sick and scared Jake in a blanket and promised him that everything would be okay. After spending over 6 years in a puppy mill, Jake was suffering both physically and emotionally from the extreme neglect. Amongst many health issues, Jake was diagnosed with gingival squamous cell carcinoma, an aggressive mouth cancer that had already eaten away at his jaw bone and spread into his lymph nodes. Jake was only given 4 months to live.

The very same blanket that provided him warmth and security after being rescued, gave him comfort and love throughout his very brave battle with cancer. After fighting like a warrior for nearly 13 months, wrapped in his very special blankey and surrounded by his family, Jake crossed the Rainbow Bridge on August 5, 2016.

Cavalier Rescue of Alabama dba The Cavalier Rescue rescues, rehabilitates, and rehomes Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. Our dogs come in by breeder surrenders, owner surrenders, puppy mill dispersal auctions, shelter transfers, and strays. We work with shelters in many areas including Humane Society Partnerships in Birmingham, Mobile, Huntsville, Anniston, Oxford, Lineville, Pell City, Tuscaloosa Montgomery, Dothan as well as several in Dallas and North Texas. We have active teams in Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, Louisiana, and Texas. We partner with other rescues for the greatest impact possible.

We also focus on prevention which includes education. We support the Alabama Puppy Mill Project. Our founders helped rescue the dogs of Rock Cliff Farms in November of 2014. We advise people to be wary of breeders/puppy mills that use terms to market their dogs such as: Mini or miniature Cavalier, health guarantee, try to avoid answering questions, or won’t allow potential buyers to meet the parents and see where they live. Never buy a puppy from a pet store. Pet store puppies are puppy mill puppies.

We take care to give the dogs in our program everything they need to thrive with complete health evaluations and treatment, including eye specialists, cardiac specialists and orthopedic specialists. We treat luxating patellas, hip dysplasia, cardiac murmurs/insufficiencies, cancer, obesity, eye issues, and whatever else a dog may need to obtain best state of health.
