Willowbrook Cavaliers

We bought and love our cavapoo Ellie (formerly Peaches) from you about a year and a half ago. We can't get enough of her! I think we are ready to add to our family again. If it isn't until Jan. 08 or later that would be fine.

You had suggested Peaches for us even though she wasn't shown on your website when we first contacted you. She has a great personality and that was what you liked about her. I think you were going to keep her for yourself at one point.

Thanks,

Hi there,

Duffy (Cole) came in to our lives just about one year ago now. Banjo (Jo-Jo) has been with us about 10 months. Both dogs are doing really well. Banjo has really come out of his shell in the last couple of months. He does leaps and full turns in the air whenever I say the magic word: outside. Banjo and Duffy race around the yard with one another and enjoy wrestling and playing chase with Jake, our nine year cat. It really took us a while to win Banjo over – he was much shier and far more timid than Duffy. When we picked Duffy up at the airport, the only sound we could hear was his tail thumping on the crate as it wagged. That tail hasn’t stopped wagging since!

Banjo, on the other hand, wouldn’t even look us in the eye when he first arrived. Now, he follows me around the house and is my constant companion. He is sweet as can be, loves to cuddle, and also wags his tail most of the day. Whenever I look toward him or speak to him, his tail wags non-stop. In some ways, he remains more of a playful puppy than Duffy. He loves to be outdoors and enjoys sleeping snuggled up to the cat.

Duffy is still my son’s best friend. The two of them play together all day, and then Duffy helps put Carter to bed each night. That dog has the patience of a saint and loves everyone he has ever met. Everywhere we walk together Duffy gets attention. I can’t tell you how many times I have heard that he is the best looking dog that people have ever seen (while I kind of agree with them, I also find Banjo quite irresistible).

Attached are recent photos of the pups. The first two are of Banjo; the last is of Duffy. They just got haircuts so they may look a little silly.

HI,

We had a very good experience with Willowbrook Cavaliers. I have purchased two Cavapoos from them and had them flown here to Sarasota, Florida where I live. (did have airline promblems, came on different flights than the ones I was told, which was the airlines fault). Otherwise would recommend Willowbrook to anyone, my sister-in-law and brother also got a Cavapoo and my neighbor down the street purchased a King Charles Spaniel.

My other sister-in-law in Denver, CO also has a Cavapoo, which was how I came in contact with Willowbrook, her dog is 2 years old now, mine are only 9 and 8 months old at this time

Received pictures almost every two weeks before the arrival to see how they were progressing and growing.

No health problems at this time, took them to the vet to have them checked out when I got them, and everything was fine.

Hope this is helpfull!

Hi Terri,

Sophie is terrific! I’ve attached the photo I sent back in July – feel free to use it on your site. My daughter Emma would love that!

Sophie is the love of our life. She is fun, playful, energetic, sweet, and gentle. Her disposition is lovely and as you can see she is absolutely adorable. In fact whenever we take her to the vet, he writes in the comments part of her file: “extremely cute.” She was easy to house train, has always slept through the night and she’s great with kids. We get asked all the time what kind of dog she is and where we got her.

Thank you for being so nice to work with and for raising such lovable puppies. We can’t imagine life without her!

Hi Terri

It is so good to hear from you. Molly is doing wonderfully. She and Pepper have become the best of buds. It was a little touch and go for the first month or so, but Pepper settled in and accepted Molly and all is right with the world. We check your new puppies on line from time to time and it looks like you have some real "cutie patooties". Molly wears her feelings on her "paws". She doesn't get into trouble very often, but when she does all is needed is a stern word and you would think her little world was coming apart. She doesn't mope around, but is quick in forgiveness and loves to give kisses. She has a thing for my forehead and will lick forever if you let her. Linda loves to snuggle with her early in the morning before she has to get up and go to work. When we had her spayed at six months, she came through like a champ. I think Fasttrack may have had a little to do with it. The Vet assistants were impressed at how quickly she bounced
back from her surgery. So we continue to keep her on it. Our computer crashed and has been down until two nights ago. Linda has some cute pictures of Molly, and we will get them loaded and sent to you.
Thanks so much for you interest and great to hear from you. We still want to make a trip up your way to see your cavapoos.

Take care and please stay in touch

Wrigley is doing better and better each day (we didn't think she could get any better) Just amazing!!!! We feel Wrigley is this way because of how she was raised with all of you in Oklahoma! Through all the canceled flights, bizzards, and traveling to our parents home in S. Carolina and finally getting to Chicago...she was WELL worth the wait! Our children couldn't be happier! Wrigley has not had any accidents in the house since the last time I talked to you! She is LOVED by all who have met her...even our vets fell in love with her. They were so impressed with her health, personality and color!!!!
We just love her and could not imagine our family without her.Wrigley is also sleeping through the night in her crate, too. She loves people and especially children. We feel so fortunate and lucky to have found you and your family as our breeder!!! Thank you Teri for being so supportive, patient and understanding through this process.

Oh, with food- right now she is eating her cup of food by noon w/ the 1/4 tsp. supplement -- should we be addding more food to her bowl each day?


All our best to your family and to the all the other puppies! We will definetely recommend you to others for a cavapoo!

Cavapoo "Maile"

Terri-She is PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Did you work with her on anything-
she seems so well trained in lots of ways-WE LOVE HER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks so much,didi

My family has completely enjoyed adding "Dexter" to our family.
Willowbrook was recommended to us by a neighbor who purchased a cavapoo
from Terri in 2007. Although I was hesitant to purchase a dog, I had done
enough research to know that a cavapoo would work best with our family.
Terri was very reassuring and asked me a number of questions about our
lifestyle and personality preferences before she picked a puppy for us.
Originally I had asked for a female, but Terri had Dexter in mind for us,
because of his sweet, loving and mellow personality. Boy, was she right!
We couldn't have asked for a sweeter companion. We have had him for a few
weeks now and he is adjusting well to his new surroundings, although it
took some time for him to come out of his shell. Terri, I can't thank you
enough for your thorough research in selecting the right pup for our
family.

We adopted our adorable dog Rex, a cavapoo, from Willowbrook Kennels in June of 2006. We were very hesitant to purchase a dog from a breeder on-line. All of our fears were unfounded. Terri was extremely patient with us every step of the way. She sent us pictures regularly and answered all of our questions. (There were many) She asked us questions about our family and matched us up with the perfect dog for us. He is smart, and healthy and loving.
I have and will continue to recommend Willowbrook Kennels to anyone who is looking for a King Charles Cavalier or Cavapoo. We had a completely positive experience and couldn't imagine life without our Rex.

Terri-

It has been a little over a year since we adopted Belle. She is the best natured dog that I have ever owned. She is a perfect pet for my 6 year old and we adore her. These are the most recent pictures that I have of her. Thanks for sending us a jewel.

Terri

Phila just is the MOST adorable dog ever! and so smart!! She has learned how to sit, stay, come and just today we had a lesson in "leave it". She 's quick and picks up games very fast. I love watching her dig into the toy box to very deliberately find just the toy she wants! This certainly is a mark of intelligence. Her affectionate manner is so winning-who can resist? She really holds her own with Karisto and his chase games outside-she's up for anything!

Thank you so much for having the dog that perfectly rounds out our family.

Hoping this finds you and your family well.
All the very best,
Katharine

Jim, Johanna & Terri,

My husband Andrew and I bought a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel from you in November 2003. John "Quincy" Adams Clark has been a wonderful
addition to our family, and we just wanted to let you know what a joy he has been. Just thought you might enjoy seeing some current pictures of our little love. We look at your website from time to time and always enjoy seeing the other happy pups you have sold. Feel free to
post him up there with them if you like. We are still living in Birmingham, Alabama and get asked where we got him all the time.
Thanks for bringing us our baby...he's been a dream since day one! Hope things are well at Willowbrook Kennel. Best wishes to you all.

Sincerely,
Kari Clark

We had a wonderful experience with Willowbrook. We purchased "Charlie" from them last month. He has been a wonderful addition to our family. He arrived happy and made the adjustment to our family and his new environment with little trouble. He has been a healthy pup with a very good disposition. It is VERY apparent that Willowbrook is a nurturing kennel that takes great care in managing their pups.

I approached Terri from her website and told her about our family, it's lifestyle, what we wanted in a puppy and she matched us up with Charlie. He has been a perfect fit

Also, she asked us to keep the puppy on the Conklin supplements for the first year at least. I wasn't sure I believed her...but, when Charlie goes without it for a day or so, his energy is down and he isn't as lively. He got an ear infection about a week ago about the time the supplement ran out. We treated the infection and started him back on his supplements and he was a different dog. I would highly recommend the products for any puppy or dog you decide to bring into your home.

(charlie is now two years old)

I can't say enough about the character of Willowbrook. We are a family new to dog ownership, and we searched quite a few breeders to find the type of dog we were looking for our 9-year old daughter. From the first time we spoke with Terri at Willowbrook, we knew we had made the right choice. We had an experience that made introducing a first pet into our home nothing but a pleasure. At the time, our daughter had been very much afraid of all dogs so we thought introducing her to one at the right age would help to overcome her fears. Terri not only helped us select a puppy with the right temperament for our family situation, she also was kind enough to follow up with us once we brought our new puppy home, reaching out to our daughter specifically and letting her know that her fears would subside and any time she felt threatened she was more than welcome to call her for support.

Today our daughter and her Cavapoo Charlie are the best of friends. The personal touch offered to us through Terri made the experience with Willowbrook one we will always appreciate and remember fondly. Thank you, Terri, and your entire Willowbrook family for introducing Charlie into our lives and conducting yourselves so professionally. You have made our experience one to remember!

Hi Terri,

Hope all is well at Willowbrook Cavaliers. I've been meaning to send you a note to let you know how much we love Sam (Sammie). She has such sweet personality and wonderful disposition. I don't think she has an angry or aggressive trait in her. I think she would smile and wag her tail at anyone! We couldn't have asked for a better dog. We have two loud boys in our family (12 and 10) and Sam fits right in. She is just as loud and vocal as they are when she wants something. Sam will be two in Feb and we couldn't imagine our family without her. I've enclosed a few pictures from this fall so you can see how she has grown. She has lost most of her blenheim markings and is a little larger than we thought, but very healthy and active. She loves to play backyard football with the boys. Thank you so much and best wishes for a joyous holiday season.

Hi Terri,

Oh, he is doing so great and very spoiled. Between my Dad, sister, and myself he is so loved. He reminds us all of a two year old little boy and every day he does something new.

He's back to eating dog food again and I am sprinkling the Conklin on it. He's 17pds now! Can you explain to me what I should be doing with the gel?

I just want to tell you again how glad I am that I found you on the internet. I was nervous at first about purchasing a puppy so far away and not meeting him before I purchased him. As a matter of fact I was planning on purchasing a female but after talking to you on the phone and telling you what I was looking for you told me about Yankee and I'm so glad you did! Plus, you are always there on the other end of the phone when I call with any questions that I might have. Please pass along my best wishes to your Mom, who brought my Sammie to Boston.

I sent pictures a while back but I think your email was down, but here he is. If you ever want to use me as a reference, please do.

I will keep you posted.

All my best,

Laurel

Merry Christmas!!!!
