Breeding for health, sweet temperament and beauty

It is with much sadness that we had to let our sweet Cavalier go today. Our Griffey(Griffey’s Summer Moonlight) was 15 years 8 months and a day.

I want to say his mama’s name was Moonlight Colleen(?)[His Mom was AKC Champion Cochran’s Moonlight Colleen and father was Cochran’s Lucky Vanous.]

BEST DOG EVER and our hearts are broken. He certainly deserves a spot in the Oldies gallery.

Sincerely
Gordon and Lori Childs

My sympathy for your loss. Cavaliers make the very best companions. I have added Griffey to the Oldies gallery. He was a gorgeous boy.

All the best,

Susan

 

On October 12th, I fell in my handicapped shower and broke my back in three places. I had spinal fusion surgery to stabilize the broken vertebrae and was lucky to not be paralyzed. After over three weeks in hospital and rehab, I was able to go home today.  Thanks to all the marvelous medical teams at Greenville Memorial Hospital and Powdersville Post Acute Rehab center. I renamed the help button on my bed, my “angel button” because pushing it brought “angels” to take care of me. Those “angels” were the dedicated nurses and CNAs of the medical staff at the afore mentioned medical facilities. I can’t thank these wonderful people enough. And many thanks for all your prayers and concern.

My health was not that great to prior to my accident so William took over all sales on January 1, 2022. You may contact him via email at wmcochran68@me.com. We will have a limited number of puppies for pet and with full AKC registration and an even more limited number of adults as we gradually place our dogs in preparation for retiring in late 2023. Check with William at his email if interested in a Cochran’s Cavalier. wmcochran68@me.com 

 

Hi, Susan and William!

I just wanted to share some pictures of my Foley [Cochran’s Carmello]. Some are portraits I had made by a local photographer – Krista Powell Photography. He is such an angel, a total mama’s boy, and my very best friend! He turned 8 in November and had a healthy checkup last month. Heart sounds clear – pretty amazing for an 8 year old Cavalier! I can’t imagine my life without him. Thank you for my sweet boy!

Henry loves puppies and had a great time playing with his boys before they all took a rest in the dogbed. Photo was taken the day that the puppies owner came to pick the boys up.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hello, Susan!

I just wanted to send you a note and let you know that our beautiful Jasmine is celebrating her 15th Birthday today!! She is so loved by everyone in our family and we feel so blessed to have her in our lives. She is showing her age as her hips slow her down a bit, but her heart is good and she is happy. Thank you for your diligence and care in breeding your dogs. We are so happy to be celebrating 15 years of love and life with Jasmine today!

Warmly,
Ginger & Allen, Alexa Anna & Allison

I got my first Cochran cavalier in 1987, Belle, (Blenheim female). Four months later I got her cousin, Boo, (Tricolor female). In 2007 I got Lily and Lucy, (Tricolor female litter mates). I thought I would always get females. At one point none were available. I am now hooked on the males! In September, we are picking up (chocolate/tan) male litter mates.
I have loved every one of these pups and they have all been part of our family! To me, they are the best breed. I will always have at least two Cochran Cavs.
Thank you Susan and William.koestnerdog

Buddy turned 15 yesterday on September 10, born the day before 9/11. He comes to work with me every day as a therapy dog and brings joy to many people.
He is the oldest cav in the local vet practice by two years!

Here is an update on the girls! Molly is about to turn 14 on the 21st of July. She has been the Queen from day one! Pixy Stix is adorable, so sweet natured! She is now 6 and a half. Brinkley is very playful! I think she would have been a great stunt dog as she jumps almost 4 feet high. She’d probably be considered the ‘wild child’. She is 4 months from being 4 years.

They bring so much joy to us! I love them all!! I’ve attached a picture of the three of them taken June 29th this year to celebrate Independence Day.

Thank you for sharing your babies with us!

Hello Susan,
We thought you would get a kick out seeing our Charley (Cochran’s Ghiardelli) on her first bike ride. She doesn’t look too thrilled in the picture, but today when we took her on a ride, she was more relaxed. We went around the block the first time and today, we went a little further. She is harnessed in 2 places. Nifty gadget.
Joanne and Norman
