We wanted to have a puppy as a family pet, before my son goes to college. We are very specific that we want a Blenheim King Charles Cavalier girl puppy. We discovered this breed when one day a dog ran to our campsite tail wagging, snipping and licking us and waiting for us to pet him. He looks so adorable. He is friendly and playful but gentle with my daughter, who was six years old during that time. Since then, we thought that if we were going to have a dog it must be King Charles Spaniel. We asked around on various breeders and searched on different websites. We even considered driving to different states to get the right puppy. Then one day my husband found Paisley’s Cavaliers from AKC marketplace. I contacted Tina right away and she referred me to her daughter Meagan, her co-breeder. Meagan is very friendly and accommodating. She seems to know very well about dogs. She sent me some pictures and videos of the puppy and mommy. When we first saw the puppy in person we fell in love with her. Meagan also showed us the puppy’s parents and they are both so friendly and love to be around people. When we picked up the puppy, Meagan gave us all the papers we needed and a booklet on how to train a puppy. Her mom Tina is so nice to give us a free kennel too. I would recommend Tina and Meagan. They are great breeders, and they love their dogs and treat them like a family.
We named our puppy Pixie and she’s been our bundle of joy. She is loved and pampered by
everybody in the family. She is so energetic, smart, well-behaved and happy all the time.


​Jasper is 7 months 13 days and is an awesome, sweet little guy.

We just had him neutered & chipped & he's recovering from that with his "cone", poor guy!

Right after we got Jasper I found out i had a very large tumor in my calf and have been going through treatment and surgery. I had surgery in Salt Lake at Huntsman Cancer Institute almost 3 weeks ago and we think we got it all. But you know how cancer goes...

He's a really good guy with our kids and just loves being outside. Yippy sometimes, but who's not?

Thanks for such a sweet little pup! We love him so and are so happy to have him as an addition to our family.

Blessings,

Max was born July 3, 2017 and we frequently checked in with Tina for updates and pictures anticipating the day we could drive to Boise and take him to his new home on the Oregon Coast. When that day came we couldn’t believe how tiny he was but so active and alert. He rode at my wife’s feet or in her lap for the 550 mile trip. Frequent stops at rest stops gave him a taste of his new world and a chance for us to play. Not the slightest problem and he has been a great car buddy ever since always ready to go and excited about his next adventure.
Max is the darling of our area and loved by everyone.  He greets all with a tail wagging and knows no strangers. He loves to be out with people and other dogs and isn’t the least bit shy. Few know our name except to refer to us as Max’s mom and dad and we’re quite happy to be known that way.
He has the run of our fenced in yard and loves his games. Maybe I’m partial but I believe he’s extremely intelligent. He understands a lot of what we say and responds appropriately. Always ready to run and play he’ll do so at the drop of a hat and go until he’s exhausted.
Max has provided us with so much joy although at times it’s easy to understand why people have children and pups when they are younger. :-)
Our experience with Tina was very pleasant. Instructions were great and he had been well cared for with shots and checkups. We have recommended Tina to several of our friends considering  getting a Cavalier and have no reservations continuing to do so.
Thanks Tina for the wonderful addition to our family!!

Gracie came to us with a willingness to make new friends and go on adventures.  She was quick to accept us as her new family. Within the first day Gracie had bonded with us.  When she met our neighbors and their pets, she was curious and interested in them but she stayed right by us....often sitting on our feet. She seemed to feel safe with us within the first few hours of her new life.
With a confident disposition, she quickly familiarized herself with our home and yard. She has carved out favorite spaces.  She frequently invites us to play her favorite game of chase (we chase her).  She thinks it is great fun that she can outrun us and often times changes her tactics to try and trick us.
The breeder, Tina Martindale, provided a great start for Gracie and her litter mates.  She is a healthy puppy with a cheerful little spirit.

I have lived a pretty sedentary life style without exercising unless I decided I need to lose weight because I was not feeling confident about my body or every once in a while when me and family went for a walk and they made me come. I used my heart as an excuse to live like this but now that I have my puppy I have to do this and I am actually loving it. This puppy has been so good for my mental and physical heath because I have always struggled health wise and with depression and anxiety but since I got her my physical health is better and I am way less anxious and depressed. Love u Luna and can’t wait for more adventures and memories together


It’s hard to believe that I’ve only had Romeo for 10 days or so. He is such a little character-sometimes a little clown, sometimes hyper, but always up for fun (until he collapses, comatose, until his little eyes pop open. He is good about sleeping in his crate at night, but by 6 he is awake and ready to rock and roll. He has an iron stomach and is always hungry, but I’ve been able thus far to keep him in the dark about people food. I took him to the vet Monday—she pronounced him happy and healthy—when we got home I carelessly dropped the vets report and Romeo promptly shredded it!


We brought Echo home right at Christmas 2022. She has been an absolute dream puppy. She learned so quickly using the clicker method. She comes when called, sits, stays, down, etc., and she is exactly what one expects a Cavalier to be - a very attached little girl. She poses wherever I put her which is super important as she has a lot of daily photoshoots :-) We recently went out of town and she stayed at our favorite local kennel where she could play with other dogs all day. She did super socializing with the other dogs and people, and she adjusted perfectly when we got home. We couldn't ask for more.
