Lorna,
I hope you had nice Thanksgiving. Elaine and I did. In fact that is why I'm writing to you. It is not often that things work out
better than one expects. This however is one of those times.
Charley has proven to be one of sweetest dogs I have ever come across. We took him down to our son's in LA who has
nice small dog named Kobe. Kobe can be a handful at times. They have had him for 4 years and are still having trouble
with his house breaking.
That in it self can be a daunting issue. So to introduce a new puppy into that environment was gamble both for us and
them. Our fear was that Charley might lose his training and be attracted to Kobe scent.
Will, I want to tell you that Charley could not have been a more perfect gentleman. Not only did he not have any accidents,
but he told us when he had to go. He would just wait by the door until we took him out. Amazing.
The other thing that constantly happens is that it has become impossible to walk very far when we take Charley out.
Everyone just flocks to see this amazing dog. In fact we ran across and trainer while we were shopping and told us that
she has seen many dogs, as well as many Cavaliers. Her comment was that she has never seen one as beautiful and as
assured as he is.
It was interesting to hear her tell us that none of the Cavaliers from S. Calfornia could hold a candle to Charley!
We are looking forward to meeting our new Puppy. Since Charley had set the bar so high, we can only hope that the next
one will close to being the amazing, warm, loving and smart as Charley.
Please keep us up to date on his progress.
Your friend and truly a Cavalier lover.

We are thrilled! A very busy week but the kids, the puppies & I are doing very well. The puppies have so much
personality, spunk & are delightful. The male we named Jazz It Up, & the female Sassy Flirt (which she most definitely is,
as she is even now giving those come hither plays to our older male.) His coat is so beautiful, & his face is gorgeous. I
am in love with him, especially. Thanks again for your help, all the invaluable info you shared with me about cavaliers, &
our beautiful puppies.
Warmest regards.

The puppies are doing great!-they are so playful & are adjusting to the other dogs & vice-versa. I just love them & enjoy
holding them & letting them lay on the couch with us. Jazz sleeps with his nose in the cushion, upright. Or on his back
with his front paws in the air. Sassy loves belly rubs& is Miss Personality/Congeniality.
Thanks again Joyce

I've named our little sweetheart and I thought you you like to know. His name is Bernard Wallace Arolla aka Bernie. I took
him to the vet yesterday and he checked out great. The vet wanted to know where I got him. He said he was just
beautiful. I'll spread the word about your wonderful puppies. Thanks for everything. PS. Sparky is a little jealous but they
do play some when he is in the mood. We know they will be great friends but sparkaroo has been number one a long
time.
Have a great day and know Bernie is loved and cared for.

Dearest Lorna,
I'm thinking of you and wanted to thank you again for bringing, Vinni, into my life! He has been such a joy and has
adjusted to his new life just beautifully! It's a wonderful testimonial of how your caring heart and concern for your puppies
has brought us a happy and healthy "new love". I have already given people your phone number in great confidence to
anyone who is looking for the best breed in the world! My daughter is even visiting as much as possible just to see and
play with him! We couldn't be happier and thank you, Lorna, for bringing such a gift of love into our family. Vinni sends his
love too, WOOF!!!
Warmest Regards,

Hi Lorna,
I can't begin to tell you what a joy it is to have "Sophie". (Yes, she's gone from Gracie, GiGi and Mia and the name she
responded to is Sophie). So, "Sophie" it is! She is a perfect little "angel". I'll forward photos soon. Our labs love her,
especially Elwood our 80# male. He's in love and oh so sweet with her. My husband's a big pushover too. We've all fallen
madly in love. She and Vinni have play dates and are a riot. You wouldn't believe the difference in Bobbie, her whole life
has changed in such a magical way. She's a wonderful first time puppy Mom.
Just wanted to touch base and thank you for helping to bring such joy
into all our lives.
Very fondly,

Dear Lorna & James,
I want to thank you for allowing my husband and I the opportunity to visit your home and adopt our baby boy Jack (son of
Farrah and Winston born March 16, 2007). He is truly a delight. We are very happy with him. On our way back to Vacaville
he was extremely popular with everyone that we came in contact with.
Our first night was great. He woke up in the middle of the night and whined when he was hungry and when he needed to
go outside and take care of business. I have to hand it to you for the way you have your home set up. I truly believe this is
the reason he is basically potty trained. As you said as long as we are attentive to his needs he will probably do fine in the
house and he has.
I also would like to applaud you on how much you and James love your dogs. You are wonderful breeders. You are not
just in it for the money and that shows. I have had other AKC breeds in the past but your home and your dogs are by far
the best I have seen. Your runs are clean; your dogs are in great health, and loved very much. We will return for a second
baby in the next 6-12 months.
Until then I will keep you updated with Jack’s progress.
Sincerely,
Bobbie and Jim Adams

Hi Lorna,
Just a quick note to let you know that our puppy is doing wonderfully. He is eating and has used the bathroom normally.
He is very excited to see our cavaliers and they are welcoming him. My male has been cleaning his little face - it's sooo
cute! My girls are in love with him and my Mom tried to take him home with her!!! Can you believe her??? He is very playful
and lovable and is adjusting well to his new home.
Thank you for sending us such a wonderful fur baby! He is perfect!
Talk to you soon,

Just thought I'd let you know how much we are all enjoying Rosie. She is very sweet and affectionate (alternating with
some very rambunctious moments when she is so playful). I took her in for her first vet appt. today, and they all thought
she was adorable, too (including the vet).
Thank you!

Hi Lorna,
I just heard your message when I came in from outside, and can't seem to find the phone anywhere as I am sure my boys
have carried it off!!!
The puppy is doing wonderful!! We are so happy with her. She is so sweet and loving!! The kids adore her, and of course
me too!! We started off to put her to sleep in the crate, but OF COURSE she ended up snuggling in bed with us! She is
way too snuggly for sleeping so far away. She doesn't really whine or cry at all. She does have a lot of action with the kids
and seems to sleep well by the end of the day. We all love it when she just follows us around room to room.
Thanks so much. I was going to send you a message yesterday, but didn't get around to it! I will keep in touch. I gotta go
find the phone!!! I hear it ringing again.

We made it home safe and sound. Joey is doing good. He slept most of the way, but did play a few times in the car. As
you know, though, they are so easy to take care of. After we got home he did his “business,” then played hard for about
an hour. He is now pooped out and taking a nap. He is soooo adorable!

Just since Wednesday, Joey’s learned to “sit.” He is so easy to work with. As long as he knows treats are there for good
behavior, he’s all over it! His schedule is pretty regular now. He goes to bed about 8PM and gets up about 6AM. When
he’s tired he goes to his crate. He is staying in our room, so I hear him stir about 6 and get up and take him out.
He loves to play. We have several squeeze toys that he likes to chase and play with. I have a ball outside that he chases
and rolls around with. When he cuddles, he just melts into you. He gets so relaxed. As you told us, they love to be with
you. We sit on the floor with him, and comes up gets in our laps to rest.
He has is boosters earlier this week and did really good. He does not like his temperature taken (not that I blame him)!
The vet says he’s in great shape. He’s sure grown.
We look forward to seeing you in a couple of weeks. We’re staying at Winchester Bay Sep 3-7, so we’ll call you and drop by.

Charlie is doing fine. We took him to the Morgan Vet he got one of his puppy shots and I have a dose of Revolution for
next week for him. We put in a doggy door but have some work to do outside before he can use it. He is eating good. His
hair is growing and he doesn't sleep all the time. He loves to play with Daisy. He is a kisser and loves to go to sleep in
your arms on his back. We have taught him to go up and down our stairs in the house. He is learning his name. Jeff takes
him outside to run a play several times a day. He has new toys. He has started howling when he wants attention. The
attached pictures was taken today after his bath. You are more than welcome to come see Charlie.

Hi Lorna!!
Just a quick email to give you an update on how little Gypsie is doing here, in SF. She loves to play with our other
Cavalier, Cocoa, and she does whatever Cocoa is doing/ goes wherever Cocoa is going... They chase after one another,
play tug of war etc. Gypsie is very affectionate, and also very adventurous (she can run up and down the stairs/ she
leaps!). She also uses the doggie door etc. I took her to the vet last Monday for shots and check ups, the vet said she is
beautiful and is doing great.
We are very happy to have her, she's a great addition to the family!
Thanks a lot!

Hi,
How could you have produced such a PERFECT pup for us? We are already madly in love with him! He's cuddly, alert,
curious and engaging. He loves being in his crate - the more toys the better. He only woke us up 2x last night, but each
time he quickly went back to sleep. It is so much fun to run back and forth on our deck with him chasing me. Thanks,
Lorna, for helping me through the process and for being so thoughtful and responsive. You are absolutely wonderful!

Shazam!! She's eating. I took your suggestion and mixed a little wet food with the dry.
First puppy class: she's a genius.
She already sits and stays (added to fetching) after only 3 days of training.
Wow is she SMART.
First long walk on leash this Saturday--she did pretty well.
She is SOOOOOOOOOOOO adorable and likes to cuddle so much--it's like having a kitten!! Only better :-).

I want to update you on the puppy like I said I would. He is doing great, and has really come out of his shell in the last 2
days. He is chasing Fergie around and is sooooo cute and spunky!! He is eating well and has been really good about
going to the bathroom outside. He doesn't like to sleep in his kennel at night yet.. He is good in there during the day when
he has to be, but wines and yelps at night.. I remember having the same problem with fergie when she was his age. That
will take some time I'm sure, so for now until he gets used to it here he sleeps with us. We love him and are really excited
about having him. Of course fergie tries to bully him around but he gives it right back to her!! They are getting along good
and seem to play good together. Thanks for everything you guys are the greatest! If you have any advise or concerns
please let me know.

Hi Lorna,
It's only been a week, and yet it feels like Wally has been with us forever. The love fest continues, not only with us but
with everyone who meets him. He's smart, very playful, funny, resourceful and incredibly affectionate. He absolutely
loves his toys. He's been a big hit wherever he goes (and I try to take him with me whenever possible). The vet was so
excited about him, she asked me where I got him, and I gave her your website info. She said she has a friend who is
looking. In fact, as I was leaving her office, she was checking out your site!
Thanks again for my wonderful companion!

Hi Lorna,
Wally is more and more wonderful. He's funny, totally lovable and cuddly with people, very sweet with dogs and children,
and very playful. The biting has greatly subsided and he is very responsive when I say "No." I had a trainer here on
Sunday, and she described him as "very smart." Took him to the vet today, ostensibly for a shot, but he has had diarrhea
for a couple of days. His temp. was normal and she could not find anything in his stool, so she put him on a bland diet.
AND she told me that, after I referred her to your website, she told her friend Nancy about you and Nancy got a pup from
you - a Blenheim!! According to the vet, Nancy is as thrilled as I am. The vet described Wally as "exceptional," and she
added, "You know, I see a lot of dogs."
Hope all is well with you, and thanks again for such a superb gift!

Hi Lorna...
I just wanted to send you a note thanking you for raising such beautiful and well bred Cavalier King Charles Spaniel
dogs/puppies!!!
To date I have bought three from you, one male we named Trevi who is a blenheim (out of a beautiful CH Danny), a female
named Sydney who is a beautiful Tri (takes after her mom Lacey and Winston her dad) and then Pisa another Tri girl who
has the same wonderful mommy, Lacey and CH Nikolaas for her daddy. These puppies are growing up to be pretty special
and are the most loving, affectionate dogs I have ever had!
I showed little Sydney last May '07 in Spokane and on her first show she placed 4th even tho she was pretty scared. I
know in the future she will do much better looking at her coloring, build and temperament.
I am very grateful for you allowing me to breed my Sydney to one of your males! I know I will have a beautiful, possible
show quality, litter out of these parents for their quality and lovingness not to speek of their LOOKS!!
I am signing this as a very dedicated owner of the Cavalier King Charles Spaniels and am very pleased to have come
across Lorna and her www.cavalierlovers.com website.
Thanks again Lorna for all you have given me..... for me to build my "furry family of Cavaliers" .....and to have such
wonderful dogs to introduce into the show ring and to have as my lifetime companions.

I just wanted to let you know that Oliver is doing fine. He is eating and drinking. He was bouncing around tail straight up
and waging a hundred miles an hour just a few minutes ago. He has figured out getting up on the deck in the yard on his
own already and seems to respond well to going outside.
He thinks he has a buddy when he sees his reflection in the kitchen stove. That is pretty darn funny to watch. My wife is
in love with him to and that is great. Thanks Again and I will keep you informed of his progress.
All the Best!

Lorna and James,
You have made two people very happy :-) . Tell your viewers that I just went through 22 weeks of cancer treatment and
really needed a lap companion. Poppy is much more than we expected. She hasn't yet been home 24 hours and already
knows her name. She retrieves her toys when thrown and brings them to our laps.She perks up her ears and watches t.v.
=-O ! She gallops up stairs, and so far has had no accidents. She is curious, delightful, and sooooo friendly. We have yet
to hear a bark and she whines only when we leave her alone, which has only been very briefly to see how she does. Of
course she cuddled up and slept with us last night. ;-) . Your kennel is amazing. I would describe it as "first class". You
must get so much satisfaction from matching people up with these little guys. I have been in the dog world for years and
am surprised it took me so long to discover the Cavaliers. And we are so pleased that we got one from you guys. We will
keep in touch. I already feel that this breed may be addictive!
Thank you so much. :-) .

Lorna......we are so in love with Charlie!!!!! Now, I am wondering way I did not get a dog earlier....but all good things in time.
This is our time. Charlie is so sweet and eager to please. I am driving to OSU tomorrow to pick up our daughter.....she is
so excited to babysit Charlie! Dave and I are going out to dinner to give Lisa some one on one time with Charlie.
Can not thank you enough for him....he is WONDERFUL! Even my highly cherished cats are coming around to liking him.

Hi Lorna,
Charlie's vet visit went very well. He got an excellent report. The entire clinic loved him! He is a keeper. Thank you. He is
sleeping in his bed now.....he loves this thermal pet blanket I have. He curls right into it. His favorite toy is the ring you
sent with him. He carries it in his mouth and shakes it. It make a rustle noise like dry leaves.....too cute! I will keep you
informed of his progress as he grows.
Thank you,

Lorna,
Thanks again for a great “adoption” experience. Laci, our new Cavalier puppy, is fitting in very nicely. What a sweet girl!
Even though Lynda couldn’t come with me to pick her up, she fell in love with Laci the moment she saw her. Joey, our
previously acquired puppy has warmly accepted her, and already lies and plays with her. Even though she’s only a few
weeks old, she can hold her own! The cats seem okay with her as well. Your advice on the way to go was right on again!
Thanks so much for another great Cavalier.

Hi Lorna,
Just wanted to let you know Annabelle is doing great! She is eating and drinking well, and just loves the kids. She slept
most of the day yesterday, and is much more comfortable and settled today. She is very playful, but the minute she gets
tired, she wants to be in someones lap. Of course, the kids fight over who gets to hold her. I'll be taking her to the vet on
Tuesday, I'm sure it will go great. Thanks so much for all of your help in getting her here safely. She really is a little peanut,
just adorable!

Oliver is doing great! He is eating his food and drinking water and he loves me so much. He is really playfull and sweet. He
loves to chase tennis balls around in the back yard and him and the cats are starting to be friends. He is so cute and
smart. I started teaching him how to sit and he got it after five minutes. He is the smartest puppy in the world. He has not
had any accidents so far in the house and he uses his doggie door like a pro. We finished building the doggie run and it is
really nice. He is the best puppy in the world. Thank you so much.

Good morning, Lorna!
Our puppy is the most delightful little guy is the whole world!! We are so happy with him - he is the center of our home!
We got home from Lincoln City around 2:00 yesterday, Monday, and our little 5 year old grandson who lives down the
street saw the puppy outside in the yard. He came over, then the rest of his family, they stayed for dinner and left around
7. Needless to say, puppy was a tired little guy and slept soundly last night. I think Fred was looking forward to today
when I would be at work and he would be home to spoil and love him all by himself! Anyway, just wanted to say he is doing
great - although not eating very much. But, he is little and his life has been topsy-turvy the last few days. We've named
him "Buddy".....it just seems to fit. I am so glad to have found your web-site and found our little companion who has had so
much love already lavished on him!
Take care! I know you make many families happy and complete!
God bless you and your husband,

Hi,Lorna !
Thought I would e-mail you some photos of Bella. Bella is doing just great! We are loving her so much and she seems so
happy! You did a great job socializing her as she is so comfortable with all of us and we are so grateful for that. All my
friends thought she was a well socialized too. I take her to my kids school with me and people always ask me where did
you get that dog. I tell everyone that I had her shipped in from a good breeder that was worth getting her shipped from .I
tell everyone that there are puppies that you can find but Lorna is very fare in her price. Thank you so much for all the
support that we have got from you from the time we picked out our little Bella and even after she came home your
support and advice has meant a lot to us.You truly are not just a breeder but some who truly cares about the joy you have
brought to others. Thank you again for everything and will surely stay in touch.
Take care,

Hi it is Tiffany….. I am just writing to tell you that Hope the trooper girl I got gets prettier and prettier every time I look at
her. I am so in love with this puppy. If and when you breed Snow White to Trooper I will buy every girl that they have that
is show quality. I am absolutely in love with my little girl. She is going to stay here forever. Not only is she gorgeous, but
she has the most fun personality of ALL of my cavies. Coming from a fellow breeder that is saying a LOT. Hugs to you and
hubby. Keep me on the list.

Hi,
This is Kim Garcia. I recieved a beautiful female pup from Nick and Danielle back in Jan. 2008. I just have to tell you what a
complete joy she is. We named her Lady Morgan the Love Muffin. She has the sweetest disposition. A True Cavalier! So
well adjusted and a happy pup. She is so smart and was by far the easiest puppy to potty train out of all the dogs I have
ever had. She was pretty much trained by the time I got her at 8 weeks. She would whine and let you know when she had
to go out. She uses the doggy door with no problems. She sleeps with me at night. Just cuddles up right next to me and
has to be by my side. Her ears are to die for already. She has the most melting expession on her sweet little face. I just
saw the Tribute to her Grandpa Danny. I am so sorry he has passed. I swear, she has his same facial expressions. I am so
happy I picked her. Remember, I was going back and forth on her and her sister? I just thought I would let you know how
pleased we all are with her.
I have been checking out your site every few weeks since the spring in hopes of seeing a female pup from Pricilla.
Remember we talked about it when I purchased Morgan. I almost took her and her sister, but wanted a Female Tri Color. I
almost got in touch with you for Nick's Tri girl listed. She looks precious. I see she went fast. But I was holding out for
Pricilla. That is why I am getting in touch with you. How disappointing that Pricilla doesn't have any girls listed. I am
wondering if I missed one in the past week or if there is one available that wasn't listed. If not, could you keep me in mind
for her next litter and give me a shout out. I would also be interested if there is a Tri female from Super Trooper. I am just
so impressed with the overall high quality and manners of your pup's. Morgan is the complete package. I won't look else
where. You are a true find in a Breeder. As I stated when we last talked. I can wait for the perfect pup to complete my
Brood.
Please keep in touch and if you have a waiting list please add me to it.
Sincerely yours,
Kim Garcia

Hello Lorna,
I do apologize that it took me longer to get some pictures to you and I hope that they make you smile like they do me. I will
send more as he grows & will definitely keep in touch.
Things are going great. What a good little puppy. He is eating - your trick worked and he starting eating shortly after we
spoke yesterday. And thanks for taking the time to go over things with me, I really appreciate it and it shows that you love
your dogs and want the best care for them.
Today was so much fun. He is getting more comfortable around the house and all the new things and was very frisky. He
had us laughing and smiling all day long. He even went to the door and whined to be let out to go do his thing!! He adores
our daughter Brooklyn and absolutely loves David and I think David feels the same way. Wouldn't you know that the one
that was so hesitant to get him is the one the pup chose! The pup is always at his feet and follows him everywhere and
just needs to be around him. It's very cute. And Brooklyn just can't stop laughing and smiling. They play so well together
and she is so gentle with him. She's turned out to be quite the mother hen. (wish it would've showed up with her brother!)
And as you can tell, we still do not have a name, but it won't be long. I promise!
I just wanted to thank you again for making this possible for us. He is such a joy and he is already a loved member of this
family. It really was a perfect match for us. Thank You!
Sincerely,
Amy Chaney

Hi Lorna,
Sorry it took me so long to let you know how Shadow is doing. He is a great puppy! I'm so suprised at how smart he is for
only being about 9 weeks old. After only being home for 2 days he already knows how to whine at the door to go out and
go potty. He also started bringing a little tennis ball back to me that I had been throwing for him. I didn't even try to teach
him to fetch but that's what he seems to be doing. Madison loves him and my Husband who didn't want a dog really seems
to like him too. He's already become a valued member of our family.
Thank you so much for this wondeful dog!!

Hi Lorna.
I just wanted to let you know how much we love our new puppy we bought from you.
We named her Leona. She has so much personality and is constantly a source of laughter, gets along great with my other
dogs, goes outside the doggie door potty. My experience working with you was a pleasure because you made the entire
process painless.
I feel blessed to have found your web site.
Thank you ,thank you, thank you.

Hey Lorna,
We took Shadow to the vet the other day for his exam and shots. I have not seen his hernia since the day after we picked
him up from you. So the Vet looked at it and says its going away on it's own and wont be a problem. He also had a little bit
of an umbilical hernia but its closing too and is not anything to worry about. I showed him the paper work you gave me and
he listened to his heart which was fine. Says I got him from a good breeder and its obvious they know what they're doing.
There is also some people who live out here in Hockinson Wa, near Vancouver that breed Cavaliers and they take their
dogs to the vet that I went to. So this vet sees alot of Cavaliers. He was very impressed with our puppy and said he was a
beautiful dog.
I want to thank you again for working with us like you to make it possible for us to get Shadow. We have really bonded with
him and are really enjoying him. He has such a great personality and really loves to play ball. We love that!!
He likes to try to get the cat to play with him but the cat just looks at him. Sometimes he'll take a swipe at Shadow but has
never hurt him. It's kind of funny.
Anyway just thought you might want an update on Shadow and how well he's fitting in the family. We all love him and he's
really getting spoiled.
Thanks again Lorna,
Take care,

Lorna –
We really enjoyed seeing you, James and the dogs last week! It was soooo much fun watching all the Cavaliers play
together and romp around. Even Joey and Laci got into the mix, and seemed to really enjoy themselves with your dogs.
Thanks again for your hospitality.
You asked for a few words about the advantages of having two Cavaliers vs. one. As you know, we first got Joey. Even
though we are home with him almost all of the time, we came to the realization that he would probably be happier with
another dog companion. Of course we wanted another Cavalier! As luck would have it, when we decided, you had a great
little female available, Laci.
They are great pals. Right now, they are laying together on a recliner watching me type this (between naps that is). They
sleep together every night in their crate. They seem to always be near each other, at least in the same room. If they are
separated, one or the other will go looking for the other one. If we must take one out by itself (say to the vet) the other
really misses the one away. It is great fun watching them play in the back yard. They run and chase each other all around
the yard. They are very good about playing with toys as well. They don’t seem to have the jealous problems you see in
other breeds. They will even eat each other’s food without any animosity.
I can’t really say enough about what great companions Joey and Laci are to us and to each other. As you’ve noted, three
may be too many, but two seems just about right.
Thanks again for all your good advice on what to expect and how to treat the dogs. Everything you’ve told us has worked
out, including advice on two dogs.
We hope to see you again soon.
Warmest regards,
George and Lynda Endicott

Hello Lorna,
I just wanted to send you a few pictures of Oliver taken this Labor Day. He is quite the Boy. We absolutely love him and
he is just as cute as the day we brought him home. He has grown into a handsome young dog and we get rave reviews on
him everywhere we take him. He loves children and everyone he has ever met. Very loving and cuddly and sweet. He
has his stubborn side, but with that face you can never be upset for long.
Thanks again for a great dog!
