Read about how others dicovered their Cavalier King Charles Spaniel here with Ron and I:

 

In January,2013, we brought home our new family member, Brutus.  My husband and I had been thinking of bringing a dog into our home for over a year, but we couldn’t decide what breed would be best for us and our two cats. After researching Cavaliers, we decided to start looking for breeders and it wasn’t long until we were blessed to find Deb and Ron.

Deb was in contact with us from the day Brutus was born showing us pictures and videos of him and his brothers and sister. We were able to watch Brutus grow up, even though we were four hours away.

From the moment I first spoke with Deb I knew she loved her dogs.  It became even more evident after her and Ron invited us to their home to meet Brutus. It was here where we met all of their dogs and were able to hear the stories about all of them. Their dogs are their family and they love each and every one of them.

We couldn’t be happier welcoming Brutus into our hearts and home.  We are so thankful he came from such wonderful loving people. We not only gained a new family member, but we also made great friends along the way.

Sincerely,

Holly & Jeremy Vogtmann

 

 

Our family was blessed with a new member in February, 2013.  We welcomed Winston into our home and have fallen even more in love with him than we did at first sight.
We had a Cav for 11 years, but sadly had to put him down last March.  We were hesitant to get another dog, but this fall, after our kids went back to college, we decided that perhaps we should. I began looking on the internet for breeders in Michigan, and somehow, came across the Radles.  We communicated through emails, but the first time we were at our vacation home in Petoskey, went out to see their beautiful dogs.  They had us at “Hello!” Their dogs were so well cared for and so obedient.  They were loved by their owners.  Their home and kennels were immaculate.  I was amazed at how much they knew about each one of their dogs, their personalities, likes and dislikes.
From the time our Winston was born on December 6 until we picked him up on February 2, Deb was in constant contact with us, sharing every little detail about the litter and Winston through emails and pictures, whether it was their first trip to the vet or the first day he wore a collar.  We felt like we were right there with him even though we were four hours away.  Many times during this process, my kids would say, “I feel like Deb and Ron are going to be our friends for a long time after we pick up Winston,” and that’s just how we feel now.  They are very caring and loving people, and it shows in their dogs.  We could not have found a better place to get the newest member of our family.

Hi, my name is Brady Dodson.  I am 10 years old.  Deb is a great breeder!  There are so many good things to say about Deb I don’t know where to start.  Deb skyped me almost everyday so I could see my new puppy Chief.   She is very loving to all of her puppies so I knew my puppy was coming from a good environment.  If you are looking for a Cavalier, choose Deb!

I can say this- if you are looking for a Cavalier then look no further!  My son Brady had been asking for a cavalier for months.  We found Deb through some local residents who had recently got Cavaliers from her and Ron. Deb is so caring, knowledgeable and patient.  She spent so much of her time skyping and visiting with Brady over the 2 months we waited to take Chief home.  She even brought him to our home so we could surprise Brady with his arrival.  This is Brady’s first puppy and Deb will always be a valued friend for making the experience so wonderful for him.  My parents have had countless puppies over the span of their life and they were truly in awe of how Deb runs her breeding (they are hinting at getting one now too!).    Chief has been with us for about 10 weeks and we have had several questions, which Deb is always happy to answer.  She is always so patient and happy to take all of our calls and answer questions.  Thank you Den and Ron, I am sure we will have another puppy experience with you in the future!

It has been almost 2 month since Hana(Makenna) joined my family. She is a sweet little angel and everyone loves her. Many people have asked me where I got my puppy from. (I can totally understand, because I would do the same if I see Hana walking on the street!) And every time when people ask, I am so thrilled to tell them how great my puppy search experience was with Deb.

To have a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel was my dream since I was a teenager. That is why I spent long time looking for a good breeder to find a right puppy. To have healthy puppy was important to me, but more than that, I was looking in to breeder’s personality. Because I believe when puppies were raised by warm hear-ted people they will be sweet and loving too.

I have contacted many breeders in NY,however I could not feel connected to none of them.

They were too businesslike, and spoke about their puppies like their products which I found very uncomfortable. But then I landed on Deb’s website. Since she was located in Michigan I was hesitant to contact, but could not resist how adorable they looked so decided to sent her an email. Deb responded immediately and told me that she never shipped puppy to NY but she was willing to look in to it. As soon as I receive her email I felt very relieved. and it did not take too long to know how caring person Deb is. She sent me photos and videos everyday, updated me how the puppies were doing. Her husband Ron was in the videos and pictures often, giving kisses and hugging them. The puppies looked so much loved and looked so happy! Their puppies looked amazing, but more that that, Deb and Ron’s personality was the key element which made me reach my decision.

There were 2 depositors ahead of me and took about 2 weeks to find out the other depositors final pick. I kept bothering Deb almost everyday to see what there picks were. She never got annoyed of me and kept me updated. When the other finalized the picks, she sent me an email right away. Even after my choices was settled, I received photo/video updates from her until the last minute before she was dropped of to be delivered to NY.

If anyone is looking for a loving sweet cavalier, I would highly recommend Deb and Ron. Not only her puppies are beautiful, they were raised in a stress free environment with lots of love.  Deb and Ron have made my puppy search experience so memorable and I am truly lucky to have met such a wonderful people like them.

Several months ago our good friends purchased a Cavalier puppy from Deb Radle.  Upon meeting their ‘Ruby’ (a Ruby colored puppy from Makenzie and Colby) our fate was sealed.  We are so fortunate to now have our ‘Misty’.  The entire experience has been wonderful.  We were in contact with Deb just a couple of days after Misty was born and were welcomed to visit her any time.   On our first visit we could see that Deb is very serious about the pre and postnatal care of her puppies.    These pups are raised ‘in home’ with plenty of tender, loving care.  We feel Deb is of the highest integrity and very knowledgeable.  The foundation Misty received in her first weeks is obvious by her sweet personality.  And during this time Deb sent us pictures and video of Misty’s growth and development.   This connection made us bond with our puppy even before we brought her home.  Deb was also a fountain of information with preparations for bringing Misty into our home; including helping us introduce her to another family member, our twelve year old housecat Scarlett.  Deb has stayed in contact with us to make sure any of our questions or concerns were answered.

We feel very blessed to have this wonderful little puppy and to have made great friends with both Deb & Ron.  My husband and I know that our experience is shared by everyone getting a Cavalier puppy from Deb.

Howard, Deb & ‘Misty’ Long

 

 

Mulligan came to live with us early in June 2012.He was born on March 13 and soon after we visited him at Deb and Ron’s home. We fell in love immediately and recognized  the responsibility that his care would involve. I was so impressed with the loving, gentle and knowledgeable way that Deb cared for the puppies. We visited our puppy a second time because we could not take him home until early June due to family commitments.No question that we were Hooked by this little guy that we named Mulligan!!!We called Deb numerous times with questions like what to feed him, how to find the right vet, etc..Deb kept us posted with e-mail pictures and videos as we waited for the big day to arrive. Finally the day came when we would pick up Mulligan. He has brought so much love, joy and laughter to our lives. He is very smart and seems to catch on to our commands and requests rapidly.It is so entertaining to watch him play with his toys, work for treats, etc. He has become a vital part of our lives. I love the end of the day when he sits on the couch and snuggles with one of us. It is amazing to watch him grow and learn new behaviors. We were fortunate to spend time with his mom and dad, Riley and Colby.They appear to be wonderful, loving dogs.They seem happy and healthy with lots of land to run and play on. It is a special treat for Mulligan to have play  time with his sister Maggie. They meet at the Coffee Roasters frequently. Deb has remained a constant source of guidance and support for us. She enjoys hearing about her puppies from time to time.

I have purchased two Cavalier King Charles from Debbie.  Lexi is blenheim and Claire a tri-color.  I know Debbie as a friend and I can tell you that she takes tremendous care of her dogs.  Pre-natal  through delivery, and on through the sale.  Debbie sends photos and updates until the pup comes to the new home.    She continues to stay in touch to see how her little ones are adapting to new families and homes.  I cannot think of purchasing a Cavalier King Charles from anyone but Debbie.  She keeps excellent records, keeps the dogs healthy and on a great diet with a exercise regiment. She is a person of integrity and is a loving and compassionate individual.  I have two beautiful Cavaliers I wouldn’t trade for the world.  If you are considering purchasing a cavalier, Debbie is the person to contact.  This breed of dog is loving and has a very gentle nature.  They love to love you.  Don’t miss out on the experience, it will enrich your own health and your life.

I would recommend Radle Cavaliers to anyone! Our breeder was Deb Radle, and there are no words to explain her, she is AWESOME! Once we had contact, she returned our call in less than an hour.. She gave us some information about the litter and that she only had one puppy that was available.  She immediately shared a video with us and my husband and I were sold! I know that is what got my husband hooked. The video was a real selling point. After that she would email us with pictures and updates. She also started to call our puppy by the name that we chose, so our sweet Kona got used to her name. Deb is very professional and knowledgeable about the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel breed and also offers several tips. We cant thank her enough and will be buying another one someday from her because we cant just have one of this precious breed. We get compliments from everyone, they always ask us what kind dog she is and where we got her. My husband and I are more than willing to brag about the wonderful experience we had with our breeder Deb.

Thanks again,

Lindsey, Mitch and Kona
