C&J Cocker's Cocker Spaniel Puppies

Welcome to our Cocker Spaniel puppies web site. We hope you will find our puppies as wonderful as we feel they are.  We welcome visitors to our kennels to visit and select their Cocker Spaniel puppy in person; however, the internet has now made it possible for people hundreds of miles away to look into the eyes of our puppies and fall in love, which only a true Cocker Spaniel lover understands. Some of our Cocker Spaniel puppies have recently been featured in the video "Puppy Tales".  “Puppy Tales” features thirteen classic breeds in thirteen different skits that play off each breed's unique personality. Our Cocker Spaniel puppies are featured in the segment "Sleepover".

Our Cocker Spaniels have excelled in the show ring, in field trials, as seeing-eye dogs and certified service dogs, but most of all, they make great companions. All of these honors are fine, and we must admit we are blessed to have so many of our puppies that have done so well, but not one of these honors is the reason we have devoted ourselves to our Cocker Spaniels.

If you choose to purchase one of our American Cocker Spaniel puppies, it will be delivered either in person or via air-cargo within the continental United States no earlier than 8 weeks of age. We take special care when shipping our puppies via air-cargo to ensure their health and well-being. Our Cocker Spaniel puppies ship on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Orders must be placed by 2:00 PM the day before delivery.

Commitment to the Cocker Spaniel Breed

Being a breeder of Cocker Spaniels was not something that we just decided to do one day. Our devotion and love to the breed has come through many years of ownership and experiences with the breed. After our children left home several years ago, we became very interested in learning more about the breed and why there were so many health and temperament issues being reported. Much to our dismay, we learned that through poor breeding practices, not only with cockers, but in America's entire purebred dog populations, genetic health disorders were running at epidemic levels. Call it what you wish: empty nest syndrome, unfulfilled nurturing or a new challenge in life's many directions, at that point in time, we made a commitment to bring forward a generation of Cocker Spaniels that would be healthy, intelligent and have the wonderful loving temperament  similar to the Cocker Spaniels we knew from of our own childhood. We felt that our mission was, and is, to make sure the wonderful nature of what, in our opinion, is one of the finest dogs in the world to own would not be lost.

Our journey has taken us to dog shows, breeders, auctions, individual homes, kennels, puppy mills and back yard breeders. We have visited with the blue bloods of the show arena, listened to countless speakers and seminars, studied pedigrees, driven for hours down back roads and have visited some of the most horrid kennels (if you can call them that) we have ever seen. My wife still talks about the day I returned home from such a trip with eight Cocker Spaniel puppies. I just could not bear to leave these wonderful little guys behind in such a place, so I bought the entire litter! Not one of the puppies met our standards, but I didn't care at the time. We raised the puppies; finding homes for five and keeping three as pets for ourselves. Yeah, I know I'm an old softie...

Over the years we have worked very hard to develop a wonderful line of Cocker Spaniels. Our puppies are healthy, intelligent and have wonderful temperaments.  If you want to compete with them in what ever activity you wish, our puppies will do their very best to please you; just like our Cocker Spaniels did when we were children...

Commitment to our Cocker Spaniel Owners

We proudly offer consultation to our clients for the life of our Cocker Spaniel puppies concerning health, diet, training, grooming or other issues you may wish to discuss with us.

We do hope you enjoy the pictures posted on this website and if we have puppies available, please feel free to call and visit with us about them.

Just remember, there is only one place in the world where you can get a C&J Cocker Spaniel...and there is nothing better, we promise.
