It’s a boy! We are so thrilled to welcome our Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Henry (Pinnacle’s O’Henry) to our family! Loved by all he meets, Henry has a sweet temperament and is absolutely beautiful.
We were first introduced to Lori and Jack Bennett of Pinnacle Cavaliers by a reputable breeder in our area. Jack and Lori carefully breed champion cavaliers and invited us to meet them while they attended a show nearby.
It was love at first sight when we met three week old Henry and his Blenheim littermate whose parents are champion cavaliers Forestcreek Sugar Biscuit (Gypsy) and Pascavale Jackson. We weren’t sure which of the two boys would be placed with us and trusted Lori’s judgment and expertise. It was evident the Bennetts adore their family of cavaliers by the care and attention they give to each one.
Lori and Jack updated us with emails, photos and videos of the puppies until Henry was old enough to join our family at 11 weeks. During this time, they began transitioning Henry from his littermate to help with his separation. He received his first vaccinations at 10 weeks and came home to us with his own “baby album” of photos, parent health screenings, pedigree and other information. Lori also sent him with highest quality puppy/dog food, treats and most importantly, familiar “scent” items to help comfort him during his first days away from his mom and brother. He is so precious!
We have had a wonderful experience and highly recommend Pinnacle Cavaliers. We couldn’t be more pleased and look forward to many years of joy with our sweet boy!

When our Cavalier Vinny passed away earlier this year I was sure that nothing could heal the pain in my heart. In a moment of sadness I went to your website just to look at some pictures of Cavaliers. To my surprise you had just posted pictures of a brand new litter that had just been born. I pushed the notion of adopting a a new puppy out of mind, convinced it was too soon.
Well, I couldn't stay away. I kept checking back to see if you had updated your pictures and then decided to call you to see if I could come in person to see them - just to settle in my mind that it was still "too soon". After that first visit to your home to see those precious babies I was in love with my Teddy Bear (aka "Chunk"). I visited him weekly thereafter, watching him grow and falling more in love with him each time. When my husband finally came with me, he was smitten as well and the rest is history!
Thank you so much for all that you do to raise such amazing little Cavaliers! Teddy came home with us and instantly became "family" with our other two pets - a 6 yr. old Brittany Spaniel and a cat. His social skills for such a young puppy were quite impressive. He and Sassy cat are best buds! All of your puppies are gorgeous - I don't know how you ever let any of them go!

We live in west central Florida and she and her husband drove and met us half way with the 5 month old puppy, Chester. We found her to be awonderful breeder, only allowing one liter per year. Chester was partially trainedwhen we got him and he is just a lovable and playful puppy. He is very healthy.We found Lori on the internet with pictures of her available puppies and find herto be friendly and honest. We would recommend her to anyone looking foradorable Cavaliers."

My family’s search for a puppy started in early June 2009 after four years of constant begging from our now ten-year-old daughter and eight-year-old son. We took a few surveys to determine what kind of dog would best suit our family and the Cavalier was consistently in the top five choices.
During our search we found a puppy named Gibson. We contacted the breeder and received a very nice reply from Lori Bennett. She gave us a lot of very useful information about the Cavalier breed and also invited us to come visit her puppies. We later contacted Lori about visiting and purchasing Gibson or a female puppy named Ginger Snap.
Me, my daughter Sarah, and my son James met meet Lori and her husband, as well as all of their beautiful Cavaliers. There were four puppies from the litter left including Gibson, Ginger Snap, Chester, and Henry. My daughter was given the honor of choosing our puppy and after much time and deliberation she chose Gibson.
I could immediately tell that Lori and her husband’s hearts were breaking and in their despair I knew I had made the right choice in this breeder. I knew Lori and her husband loved those puppies as tears started to well up and voices started to crack. Much to my surprise, Lori had made a scrapbook for each of the puppies including their bloodline history and several milestone photos. She also took care of Gibson’s vaccinations, socialization, and early potty training.
Since having Gibson, I have been in contact with Lori several times. I am sure if I ever have a question about a Cavalier, I could ask her and she would give me any information she could provide. I had also contacted Gibson’s veterinarian to obtain his shot records and the receptionist immediately knew the puppies and Lori.
If you are in the market for a Cavalier then I would highly recommend purchasing one from Pinnacle Breeders. I truly think Lori and her husband are terrific breeders and I would definitely refer my friends to buy a puppy from the Pinnacle Breeders. I am not sure if we will get another puppy, but if we do then I will definitely be in contact with Lori again. It has been a great experience living with a Cavalier.

To Any and All:
We couldn't be happier with our Cavalier puppy from Lori and John. He and his mother were given wonderful care and tons of loving attention. He came home with a baby book and his own pillow and blanket!!! He's a healthy, very well socialized, spectacularly handsome little boy and he gets along with every human and canine. A wonderful experience from beginning to end.
