Lottie’s really is the most fantastic place to start your puppy journey and we couldn’t recommend Charlotte or her programme more!!
We have ended up with the most beautiful, calm, and well-balanced puppy. From the very first approach the process was simple, clear, and supported in its entirety by Charlotte. After our initial conversation, where Charlotte got to know us and was very thorough in her questions, we had an initial phone call. This was a brilliant opportunity for us to get to know Lottie, for her to get to know us and for us to ask any questions, no matter how big or small. This really helped us to build a connection to know we had a good breeder and for Lottie to know we were the right family for her puppy.
After we were all comfortable, we were able to meet the litter and select our puppy. This visit was brilliant, not only could we visit our puppy we met the entire litter, mum, and Lottie. Lottie was amazing, so honest and opened her home in its entirety to us, there are no secrets in terms of the dogs and the environment they live. Lottie went through all the documents with us to support our puppy, mum’s testing and heritage, dad’s testing and heritage, breed information, training information, scheduling etc. all of which we were able to take home with us on final collection.
From that point we would visit Lottie once a week to meet the pup, ask any questions and to train and bond together. These weeks were invaluable and set us and our pup in the strongest manner. You can really tell that the puppies and mums’ welfare is the center of everything she does. Another simple thing but Lottie using the name we had selected really helped in shaping our training with puppy before and after they came home. At week 3 in the process, we were allowed to bring our current dog to meet the pup and make sure there were no issues. Every weekend was different but supported us in making sure puppies, our current dog and our transition was seamless.
When it came time to take our little one home, we couldn’t have asked for better. Lottie meticulously went through all the paperwork, we were given puppies food, organic goodies to support keeping puppy clean, a blanket she had been sleeping on and several toys. Alongside all of this Lottie was always at the end of the phone when you needed her, she checked in with us consistently over the first month and was so helpful with any challenges or concerns. She is always there even now when we need her!
We have had our Pup going on 4 months now and she is thriving, and it is no understatement to say the largest part of that is down to Lottie’s attention to detail, the time and effort she puts into supporting her puppies in their first weeks and her overall love for every puppy she raises and every dog she has.
Lottie really is a credit to dog breeding, if every owner and puppy was supported the way we were and are, you would have a much better world for dogs!

We knew we wanted to work with Lottie years before we knew we wanted a second dog. Her attention to detail and the love she has for her puppies is unmatched. She is also incredibly knowledgeable about breeding and has thought of everything! What stood out for us is she had as much love and kindness for our current dog as she had for her own throughout the entire process. She gave so much advice on settling them both in together, we used scented blankets to get them used to each other and they got to meet twice before our puppy came home – it made everything run so much smoother. They co-existed well from day 1 and were playing 5 days in which is huge!
Ernie is a confident and healthy little puppy with a huge personality and the perfect addition to our little family. Our first dog was a rescue puppy at 15 weeks and we can really tell the difference in their temperament during puppyhood. He is smart, affectionate, quirky and incredibly cute! We travelled 2 and a half hours each way for the weekly visits and we have no regrets! Highly recommended.

When we finally decided the time was right to add a puppy to our family it was really important to me to find the right breeder. Charlotte turned out to be even better than we could have wished for. She puts so much time and energy into ensuring her puppies are Healthy, well socialised and that the families are prepared to bring home their precious fur babies.
We loved the weekend sessions she does which enable you to get to know the puppy and the puppy to be comfortable with the family. Due to this when we brought home Bella she was so happy and content. She settled quickly, hardly even whimpered the first night and has been amazing ever since. She could already understand basic commands and was almost toilet trained. I feel so thankful that we were privileged enough to get one of Charlotte’s puppies and have been singing her praises to all our friends and family.

I was meticulous in my search for the best Cavapoo breeder I could find because I wanted my puppy to have had a great start in life and, at every turn, all roads pointed to Southampton and to Charlotte.
Lottie and her family are devoted to their dogs and to their puppies so she has a high bar set for prospective families, and for herself, actually. This includes the requirement to attend weekly meetings at her very welcoming home, and that, in my opinion, is what sets her apart from others. I must say the 1.5 hour round trip every Sunday was arduous, but the thought of seeing Harris’s little face and to feel the bond growing every week between us, made it absolutely worthwhile. I cannot imagine what it would have been like taking him home at 8 weeks without having had that relationship building start that we had. This is invaluable and I applaud Charlotte for making this a dealbreaker.
I got to know Charlotte really well through our visits and through the updates she sent throughout the whole process, and I’m delighted to confirm, as other have already, that the relationship with her doesn’t end with the puppies leaving at 8 weeks old. She’s open to giving whatever advice is needed and has been at the end of the phone to answer any of my basic and stupid questions – there have been plenty of those – and she responds almost immediately with care and attention.
Testament to Charlotte, Harris is a beautiful little boy, he has the most wonderful and sociable temperament, and everyone who meets is completely won over. He has become quite the little star attraction around our streets! Thank you, Charlotte, I couldn’t have asked for more xxx

We are so delighted with our lovely puppy and so grateful to Charlotte for her care and support throughout.
As first time puppy parents we have benefitted enormously from her expertise, wisdom and time. Visiting Toby every week before bringing him home helped us to bond and it was amazing to see him making progress with his training week by week.
Toby continues to be an absolute delight who has adapted beautifully to his new home, sleeping through the night from the off and very quickly getting used to his new routines. I’m quite sure that this is largely down to the strong foundations laid by Charlotte during the early days.
We feel so lucky to have been able to offer a home to one of Charlotte’s puppies and I we can’t recommend her highly enough – super professional, caring and most importantly absolutely devoted to her dogs and their babies. Thank you Charlotte.

Charlotte is absolutely fantastic and we could not have found a better breeder!
She is extremely thorough and loves for each puppy and her dogs. The effort she puts in is displayed throughout all contact with her.
Her dogs and all the puppies are well cared for in her lovely home which she welcomes families into for the four weekend visits. She is there for any advice and will be at the end of the phone for the puppy’s life.
Our puppy has been so good and it has made such a difference being brought up by Charlotte! He is a lovely little man who is happy and had a great start to life.
Charlotte carefully chooses families to ensure they only go to suitable people who will love the puppies as much as she does. She gives thorough breeding information including health checks and offers very good advice throughout the whole journey.
We are so pleased we found Charlotte and could only wish more breeders are like her. She is a gem!

What can I say about Charlotte, she lovely let me have one of her beautiful fur babies, we had been looking at getting a puppy for some time and the our beautiful Luna came into our lives at the right time. From the first moment you meet Charlotte you feel at ease and can see all the love she gives her fur babies. The 4 weeks sessions were so helpful and it meant our baby girl got to know us. She always at the end of the phone for any quires you may have even if you may need just a chat to make sure you baby is on the right track. Her fur babies are confident and the training she gives before collection is amazing. I can thank her enough for allowing to have one her babies. Thank you Charlotte so much, from me and my family and of course Luna xx

We’ve had the most amazing experience with Charlotte and we would highly recommend her, as she really is the best breeder there is!
We spent many hours researching what it takes to look after a puppy and we soon realised that Charlotte was everything we wanted from a breeder and exactly the right person to help us on our journey.
From the very start of the process, Charlotte was so lovely and always replied quickly, answering my numerous questions and messages with patience and loveliness!
The family sessions were invaluable and Charlotte opened up her home every weekend for a month, focussing on aspects such as lead training, command training and other important bonding sessions that were just brilliant.
It’s extremely evident how much Charlotte cares for all her puppies and the love, care and attention she gives to each and every one of them. This individual love, care and training means that they are content and mentally stable by the time they are ready for their forever home.
Charlotte is always on hand to offer advice, support and encouragement whenever we need it, even now, 6 months on, and we know she will always be there for us.
As first time puppy owners, we really wanted to get it right and Lottie’s Cavapoos made it a family experience that we’ll always treasure. We now have a beautiful puppy with a wonderful temperament and we just couldn’t be happier. Thank you Charlotte for choosing us to have one of your precious fur babies – we love you!

Finding Lottie literally changed our lives. I looked up top Cavapoo breeders in the UK and after looking into quite a few of them it was clear that Lottie was, in my eyes the best fit for us. I messaged and explained our personal circumstances. We hit it off instantly and I was blown away to be offered the chance to choose one of her fur babies. Everything I needed to know was laid out right from the beginning. We know we’d have to commit to the weekly visits and at a 5hr round trip it was quite the commitment. However, I’m so incredibly glad we did it. As first time puppy owners it gave us so much confidence and time to bond with our little lady. Charlotte loves every single puppy and gives them so much care and attention. It’s not just the emotional support she offers there’s all the documentation too. She’s meticulous with her paperwork and history of both parents. All vets information is provided too. On the day we took our puppy home we both sobbed and had a great big hug. I honestly feel I have a friend for life after the journey we’ve been on. I wish all breeders were as wonderful. If we ever choose to add another puppy to our family I wouldn’t think twice about going back to Lottie. I just hope we’ll be lucky enough to get one!

We got our pup from Charlotte in December 2021 so we’ve just spent our second Christmas with her! Our lives changed forever the first time we met Charlotte and every day I am thankful that Charlotte chose us to have one of her precious cavapoo pups, I honestly cannot believe our luck. We live over two hours away so the weekly sessions were a big commitment but we reaped the benefits of bonding with our puppy every week! Charlotte is a true professional and at the first session she meticulously went through all of the paperwork as well as us seeing the pups being fed by their mum and choosing our pup. The sessions are so beneficial and the way Charlotte opens up her home to families every weekend shows that she will do anything for her puppies. The training that Daisy had was amazing and when she came home as well as knowing us she knew her name and could sit come and stay as well as being able to walk on her lead. Charlotte had bathed her, got her used to noises, been driven in the car, sleeping in a crate as well as all the training. I can’t say how much we love our puppy she’s got the most wonderful temperament I have never know such a sweet puppy! She’s the perfect balance of playful and calm. I firmly believe that her personality is down to the nurturing that Charlotte gave in those early weeks. She has brought so much joy and happiness to our lives over the last 12months she’s so loving and calm and fits into everything that we do! Everywhere we go people stop to say how beautiful she is and what a lovely personality! She rolls on her back wherever we go looking for a tummy tickle from humans or other dogs, this is definitely inherited from Charlotte. You will never find another breeder that gives as much love and commitment to their puppies as Charlotte, this is also extended to their families! Charlotte is always there to answer any questions, I have often messaged Charlotte with minor concerns and she’s always taken time to help. Charlotte has become a friend for life x

We had researched breeders for almost 3 years and Lottie was top of our list. We had promised our daughters that this year we would make the commitment to getting a dog.
We had been waiting to see if Lottie would have any litters and luckily everything fell into place. Our puppy was the last to be chosen from a Bichonpoo litter and he was just perfect. We couldn’t wait for a boy to join our family of mainly girls!
We made a commitment to Lotties 4 week plan and loved seeing our puppy learn essential skills whilst he stayed with his mum. Lottie was so thorough in everything she did and lots of 121 training with our puppy when he needed it.
We can’t thank Lottie enough – we would highly recommend and couldn’t be happier with our gorgeous boy

Our experience of Lottie is very similar to all the other reviews but worth detailing so that people can make informed decisions regarding choosing Lottie as their breeder. We applied to be considered as puppy parents for one of her bichonpoo litter. Luckily we met all of the criteria necessary which lead to a telephone “interview ” with Lottie. With Lottie happy that we were a fit for one of her puppies we made arrangements to visit and choose our puppy (we were 4th in line for a litter of 5). As well as choosing our beautiful puppy that first visit included paying a deposit, seeing mammy Maya with the litter and feeding the puppies, seeing a photo of the daddy and evidence of the pedigree of each parent. We choose a beautiful blanket knitted by Lottie herself which we had to bring home and wear to get our “scent” on so that it could be used for part of the bonding going forward. We were also supplied with some books on puppy training and the bichon poo breed. The main take away from that first day was how absolutely devoted Lottie is to all her dogs (and her guard cats!!), and how important it is to her to match the right families with her puppies. We then had to visit once a week for bonding and training for the next 4 weeks which in all honesty was a commitment for us as it was over 2 hours drive each way from us, but it was absolutely more than worth it. We feel that it gave us such a sound start to our life with our puppy. We bonded while learning to train puppy to sit, then harness training with sit, come and wait and finally walk on the leash. During these weeks we also had regular updates via Instagram and personal videos of puppy’s first bath and blow dry. The day we collected our new family member we were sent home with a goodie bag that included our blanket, puppy pads, toys, soap and a big bag of puppy food. Puppy slept the majority of the drive home and settled in quickly. However her first night was not so easy…..but Lottie was available to help us and guide us through the issues. We have now had our puppy for over 5 weeks and she has had her second set of vaccinations and it is worth mentioning that our vet was impressed that Lottie had arranged the Lepto 4 jabs because breeders often only offer the lepto 2 jabs and this unfortunately means that extra jabs are needed. Also we have been to puppy training classes here locally and it was very obvious that our puppy had a head start. (Not that I am biased or anything but she was a star!).We have been blessed with our beautiful puppy but equally blessed that her breeder was her auntie Lottie.

We chose Lottie because of the 4 week sessions she organises. Charlotte knew that is was valuable for the puppies and for the families. Charlotte was a clear and helpful breeder, we felt reassured to get our puppy from her. Our puppy was well trained and slept well in his crate from the off.

After two years of researching breeds and breeders we finally found Charlotte and we are so thankful that we did! We can only echo the same feedback as the other lucky owners on this review page. We are so grateful to Charlotte for our absolutely scrumptious boy Ozzy. Charlotte’s knowledge, dedication, communication, genuine love and care is amazing, if only all breeders were like her! Thank you Charlotte for all of your hard work, opening your home to us for our bonding sessions (which were absolutely invaluable) and our healthy, well adjusted, beautiful natured boy.
P.S We miss you! 🙂

There is a reason why Charlotte has been named as one of the top breeders in the UK. We spent many months looking into breeders as we have very strong views on unscrupulous ‘breeders’ who saw Covid as an opportunity to make a quick buck without the know how or care for their puppies. Charlotte very quickly rose to the top of our list and it was the best decision we made. From the very first phone call and subsequent meeting, it was very clear how much her babies meant to her. At the very first meeting when we met our new little family member, she talked through the parents history and medical records and we got to see mum interacting with her pups. After that initial meeting, we were invited to her home every Sunday to bond with the wee fella and ask any questions. Charlotte prepares the puppies for their new homes with crate training, traffic and firework noises etc, bath time, trips in the car ready for their journey home, basic sit commands and lead training. These visits were not only enjoyable but also meant that little Kobe settled with us from day 1. As a new fur mum, I contacted Charlotte for advice and she was more than happy to help. When you bring puppy home, Charlotte is still there to help which is a great comfort. I feel honoured and lucky that Charlotte felt us suitable new parents. These babies mean the world to her. I cannot recommend Charlotte enough. My advice to anyone looking for a wee puppy, please do your homework. What is their practice before and after picking up your puppy. Are they properly vaccinated, are their early weeks spent within a family home, are the parents fully health checked? There are so many things I can add to this list, all of which Charlotte does. Another really sweet gesture is the hand knitted blanket which Charlotte makes. You bring the blanket home to collect the smells of your home and then you return it on the next visit for the puppy to cuddle. This then forms part of the going home pack with food, puppy pads, treats, toys and obviously the necessary puppy paperwork. Thank you Charlotte. Our home is now rather messy with balls and sqeaky toys everywhere but Kobe has made our family complete. He has added so much joy and laughter to our home and I feel this is due to the love, care and attention you gave him from day 1 xx

Our ‘Lottie’s Journey’ has been one of the most wonderful experiences we have had as a family. After much research into breeds and breeders (and discounting all those that rang alarm bells) we were delighted to find that Lotties Cavapoos had the values we were looking for and not too far from home. And even more thrilled when we were selected as a suitable family for one of her precious puppies. Charlotte has the highest standards of care for mums and puppies and is very thorough in her selection criteria, which is reassuring and a strong indicator of a caring and responsible breeder. Charlotte opened her home to our family of 4, once a week for 5 weeks, which is just an incredible commitment to giving the puppies and families the best start in life together. I still haven’t found another dog owner who had this experience with a breeder. Our sons got along with Charlotte straight away and she made them feel at ease and confident. Charlotte’s puppies are so well socialised, they are used to other animals, people, noises, bathing and grooming, car journeys, crate trained and trained in basic cues – solid foundations for coming home to a new family. We feel so blessed to have met Charlotte, she is everything we could have hoped for in a breeder and so much more. ‘Mummy Charlotte’ gave our puppy the very best start in life and everything we learnt from her, equipped us to be the best forever family we could be.

Charlottes dedication, commitment, hard work and love she has for all her animals is to be commended. From the moment her puppies are born they are very well looked after and our puppy journey has been a wonderful experience. Charlotte puts in place a fantastic socialisation program for each family from weeks 4-8. The first visit we went through the parents paperwork, health certificates and chose our puppy. Charlotte let us pick one of her knitted blankets to take home and return the following week with our smell on. Over the five weeks Charlotte shared with us videos of our chosen puppy being taught the sit, stay and come commands as well as loose lead walking. It was a wonderful experience to join in and participate in person, all of the learning sessions each week. We were also impressed how quickly Charlotte had taught them to go to the toilet on a puppy pad too. My daughter absolutely loved bonding with Charlotte and her puppy and it was a joy to video and watch. Charlotte was so kind and patient with my daughter who absolutely adored her. Charlotte gives the puppies a bath and blow dry before they come home to us, takes them out in the car and plays different sounds into her house. They are handled and groomed daily by all of her wonderful family too. When we took Ruby home we were very confident because of all the help we had got along the way. Charlotte is there for us 24/7, checks in on Ruby and gives us lots of advice which we are very grateful for, nothing is ever too much trouble. She also crate trains her puppies which meant Ruby settled instantly on her first night. Ruby is healthy, happy, calm and a joy to be around thanks to Charlotte. She is the best breeder in the UK and we feel very blessed we got to be parents to one of her puppies. Thank you for the parting gifts and food for Ruby and the Easter egg you bought for our daughter too. You are a wonderful person.

We were luckily enough to get on Charlotte’s waiting list in 2021 and in December 2021 Paris had a litter of 3 boys and 3 girls. We had told Charlotte we wanted a boy which she noted down so when Paris had the litter we were set to having one of the 3 boys. In January 2022, Charlotte welcomed us into her home to meet the litter & mother and this when we got to pick our pup and to name our little boy Vinnie. Throughout the whole process Charlotte was there to answer any questions we had and to keep us informed of training progress, weight checks etc. Every weekend we got to spend time with Vinnie to bond with him and to help train him to sit, wait, come & lead training. When we got to take Vinnie home, he already knew who we were and he settled in pretty well. Now as a 20 week pup, he is happy healthy and doing very well in training. Charlotte has remained in touch and has been there to answer any questions we’ve had. Vinnie is very well mannered and good-natured, we do believe this is down to how Charlotte raises the puppies in a loving family environment home along with her touch techniques. We couldn’t recommend Charlotte enough! Thank you!

Charlotte is an amazing breeder and the start that she gives to her little pups is second to none. Visiting Charlotte for her weekly sessions and getting to know our puppy meant that she adjusted to our family and her new environment incredibly quickly.
Thank you for everything!

We were so lucky to get our gorgeous puppy Tusker from Charlotte. Having been let down by a previous breeder, I discovered Charlotte and we struck up a conversation by email. The timing was just right to be put on the list for Paris’s litter.
She sent us lots of pupdates from the initial scan through to the first photos of the puppies.
One of the reasons why I loved Charlotte as a breeder was that we got to attend bonding sessions every week with our wee puppy. As he got to know us, we got to know him – especially as we are first time dog owners so were quite nervous and had lots of questions! Nothing is too much trouble for Charlotte when it comes to her puppies. They are already taught so many things that by the time they come home they are used to a lot of the household noises . The car ride home after picking Tusker up was not an issue as Charlotte had already taken them out in a car so they could used to it. Tusker slept well the first night and no problems since.
I contacted her after we got him home about some feeding issues and she couldn’t have been more helpful or more accurate in diagnosing the problem. Tusker is a fast learner and had a great nature which is down to how he was raised for the first 8 weeks of his life. Charlotte is such a lovely lady and very passionate about what she does. I cannot recommend her highly enough and wish her all the best. To any future puppy parents, consider yourself lucky to get one from Charlotte.

Almost a year after I first made contact with Charlotte, we brought home our beautiful Daisy. Having decided that the Cavapoo was the breed for us, we did a great deal of research into breeders and Charlotte’s name kept coming up as a top recommendation. So – after happily answering all the questions she asked to assess our suitability – when Charlotte contacted me to offer us a place on Paris’s litter we were absolutely delighted.
We are first time dog owners and were so impressed and reassured by the support and advice Charlotte gives her families. She clearly cares passionately about the welfare of her puppies and everything she does is focused on preparing the puppies and owners for a happy life together. The bonding and training sessions from 5 to 8 weeks were brilliant; we learned so much and were able to really establish a connection with our little Daisy. We felt it was a real privilege to be able to spend time with our growing puppy in those early weeks and we loved every minute.
Daisy is an absolute treasure: content; playful; clever and beautiful. We know Charlotte is there for us if we have queries or need advice and we are so grateful to her for letting us have one of her wonderful babies.

We got our puppy Luna from Charlotte in December, having never had a dog before we felt we had really found someone special with Charlotte. On our first meeting, after we had chosen Luna, Charlotte went through all the paperwork and health history of the parents which reassured us we were buying a healthy puppy. A really nice touch was choosing a hand made blanket for Luna which we took home for a week to cover it with our smells and then took back the next week, this is still Lunas comfort blanket and she sleeps with it every night. Being able to visit every weekend was fantastic as it gave us a chance to bond with Luna and as new puppy owners a chance to ask lots of questions as well. The sessions were great we played with her and in the later weeks had a go walking her on a lead around the lounge. When we came to take her home she happily came with us and because she had already been out in a car ( a part of Charlottes socialisation programme) she was quite content. Our first night was fine , we made her a den in a crate and she went in and slept all night. Having spoken to others and their experience of stressed nervous puppies, we felt this was all down to Charlottes method in allowing the puppies to bond with their parents before taking them home, rather than just pick up the puppy at 8 weeks only having seen her once. Luna is very well socialised, not afraid of anything and even follows me when I hoover !! Charlotte has a fantastic programme over the 8 weeks, gradually introducing the puppies to various noises, having a wash and blow dry, walking on a lead , getting used to various home sounds which has resulted in a very confident puppy. Seeing Charlotte with the puppies it is wonderful to see how much she loves and cares for them all, she has given us a truly wonderful loving dog and I wouldn’t be without her now. She really is a lovely happy puppy.
I thought that our weekly visits to bond with Luna were normal when buying a puppy but now realise this isn’t, it is something very special that Charlotte takes upon herself, opening up her home every weekend. Also giving us a chance to see how much she loves and cares for them and what a fantastic start to life she gives to all of her new puppies. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommended her and her 5 star award is thoroughly well deserved. Thank you Charlotte for giving us such a bundle of love .

When I started researching cavapoo breeders, Lottie’s name was one of the first to come up and I began following her on Instagram. Over a year later, I saw that she was looking for two families for a litter – and I got in contact immediately. After a telephone chat where Lottie checked that I ticked her criteria (working from home, has a garden et al) and I realised very quickly what a caring breeder she was, I met Crumpet a few weeks later. And I honestly can’t imagine another breeder who puts so much time, energy and love into her puppies.
They all grow up in a huge pen in the dining room, and Lottie goes above and beyond, from playing sounds of traffic and taking them out in the car on the school run to giving them their first bath. The result is that Crumpet isn’t fazed by much at all, whether its strange loud noises or being brushed. What really makes Lottie special though, are the weekly socialisation sessions: by the time Crumpet came home she was very happy sitting on my lap and knew the basic sit/stay/ walking on the lead commands which Lottie had taught her (and I practised on my visits). Lottie stays in touch afterwards too, and was hugely helpful when Crumpet struggled to settle on her first few nights – and I know that her support will be there again if I need it. I feel so incredibly lucky to have found Lottie, who gives all her puppies the best start in life possible.

It was the easiest decision I have ever made to come to Charlotte as a breeder. Our little Roo is just perfect and this is completely a result of being bred and bought up by Charlotte for the first 8 weeks of his life. He is the perfect combination of calm and relaxed and playful and cheeky.
Something that makes Charlotte unique is her socialisation programme and weekly sessions with new owners and their puppy. Roo left happily with us having got to know us over the previous 4 weeks and slept through the first night with no problems at all. Not only that but he has already learnt how to sit and walk nicely on his lead, something that takes other puppies much longer to get the hang of.
It’s clear from the first phone call that Charlotte cares deeply for all of her litters and loves them as if they were her own. She goes above and beyond to make sure that all of her puppies are in perfect health and ready to go out in the world comfortably socialised and confident. She is also just on the other end of the phone for any questions or help you may need, even after we bought Roo home, and is invested in all of her puppies lives even beyond when they leave for their forever homes. She truly cares for every puppy she raises and guides every new family with dos and don’ts along the way. She is a fount of knowledge for everything puppy and breeding.
I cannot recommend Charlotte highly enough to anyone looking for a perfect pup. Roo is the best thing that has ever happened to me and the entire experience has been made comfortable and easy all because of Charlotte. She truly is one of the best breeders in the country and her care and dedication is second to none.
Thank you so much Charlotte for allowing me to be a part of your puppy family with Roo, you have made it a wonderful experience and I can’t put into words how grateful I am!

We can’t thank Charlotte enough for being the most amazing Mum to her litters. She goes beyond the call of a breeder to smother them with love to set them up with the families they are going to in the best possible way for the good of the puppies and the new owners.
The litter we got our puppy from was the most relaxed and happy playful fun litter I have ever seen and the mum was clearly so comfortable and happy in the environment Charlotte created for her to bring her pups into the world.
“Thorough” isn’t a strong enough word to describe the way Charlotte handles the paperwork and advice side of the process. Receiving a day by day timetable of all the things your puppy has done in the first 8 weeks of its life is so lovely to go back and look through.
I cant imagine a single thing that Charlotte could have done differently to make the whole process smoother or more enjoyable for us to welcome a new puppy to our family and the bond she has with the puppies is so warming to see. The love and care she has for them, knowing they will be leaving her for their forever homes in a matter of weeks, is a privilege to witness. The dedication to her “job” is unreal. Clearly this is no ordinary “job” as far as she is concerned.
The onward support she has offered to us is so comforting to know that she is just a phone call away to help if we ever needed it.
Simply put, there is no one else I would be happy to recommend to anyone who was thinking of getting a new puppy.

Having only one child and having grown up with with a little dog we knew we would be completing our family with a puppy. The day came when we, as a family, were ready and I started my research. As soon as I came across Lotties Cavapoos (as it was called before the gorgeous Maya arrived in their family) I knew I needed to look no further. I’d found our breeder and was prepared for a long wait.
The comments on this page from Kristy and Lynn really do show how amazing Charlotte and her family were with our whole early experience (our Binky is from the same Litter) and how they went over and above during Covid times.
I wanted to talk a little about our first year with our girl. She really has completed our family and the bond she has with our 8 year old especially melts my heart daily. She is the most loving little dog I have ever known, weather she is curled up on our sons back whilst he plays a game on his ipad, lying on my husbands pillow with her head on his or running around with her doggie best friend Buddy who lives next door. I have never heard her growl in anger or snap and even when she is playing with us, if our fingers accidently end up in our mouth she starts kissing them instead of play biting!
The next challenge will be the Christmas tree going up!! Whilst she loves a twig or two from the garden I’m crossing everything that she will leave the fake one alone. I could be asking too much haha.
I firmly believe that Binky is they way she is because of the wonderful start she got with Charlotte and her family. It really is so so important to find a breeder who loves all her puppies as if she was going to keep them all.
Charlotte thank you for trusting our family with one of your babies.

Leo is our first ever dog and I did lots of research on which breed we should choose and then on breeders. I followed several on Instagram for a long time, and it became clear that some were breeding puppies at an alarming rate and we discounted those. Charlotte though, stood out as someone who cares so much for her dogs and the puppies she breeds, and we were prepared to wait as long as it took and felt so lucky and excited when she offered us a space. I should add here that when there was a puppy for us my husband broke his leg – I didn’t understand at the time how right Charlotte was when she asked us to wait for the next litter. I was devastated at the time, but having brought Leo home I now understand why she said we couldn’t cope with a broken leg and a puppy!
Unfortunately when our time came we were in Covid lockdown, but Charlotte, along with her lovely daughter, couldn’t have done more to give Leo the opportunity to get to know us via video calls.
Charlotte does so much work with her puppies before they come home – Leo knew his name and could sit, use puppy pads, had been bathed, ridden in the car, in a sling and on lead.
He was a bit car sick on the way home (and he’s still not a big fan of the car, although he never complains) but he made himself at home immediately. He cried a bit the first couple of nights, but soon got used to his new routine and ten months on he sleeps beautifully in his crate downstairs. He has a beautiful nature, loves everyone and doesn’t have an aggressive bone in his body.
I can’t speak highly enough of Lottie’s Cavapoos and Cavachons and would definitely recommend them. Charlotte continues to follow the pups’ progress and is there for advice always.

When I started researching the best way to bring a puppy into our family, I found Charlotte’s website and saw her wonderful page on Social Media. I started following her and devoured all of the fantastic information on her website. The more I looked into finding our furever pup, the more I realised how hard it is to find a breeder that you trust and that cares for the welfare of their animals more than anything else and ensuring they are matched to a family that will care for them and give them the best life.
I really liked the fact that Charlotte asks for families to come forward at the time of each litter and really took an interest in our family setup to ensure the puppy would be the best fit for us. Never, did I dream that she would pick us to be the lucky pup-parents and I’m forever grateful that we now have our gorgeous boy.
From the moment Charlotte chose us, she included us and kept us informed of everything we needed to know from the health checks etc. I was so excited and couldn’t believe it when the puppies were finally here.
The only slight downside for us, was we were in full lockdown and so we were not able to visit the puppies in person until we collected them. However, in true Charlotte style she went above and beyond to ensure we were able to spend time with the puppies every week over video call (this is not an easy thing with puppies, they’re never in the right place at the right time).
The calls each week gave us a chance for the puppy to hear our voices and for Charlotte to be able to show us how to pick them up correctly and for Charlotte’s daughter to shower them with love and kisses.
Charlotte asked us to send a blanket to her with our scent on and only our puppy spent time with that blanket whilst listening to recordings of our voices. Charlotte could not have done more, during a rather difficult time.
When the day arrived to go and pick up boy up, Charlotte was so lovely. She was really concerned as obviously Ernie hadn’t had a chance to get to know us so he was a little wary and this is not what Charlotte was used to. However, as soon as we left he snuggled into me in the car and has been an absolute joy ever since. I cannot remember life without him. He is such a lovely boy even when he’s on his sock stealing missions!
Charlotte stayed on hand as much as we needed for advice and I know I could always contact her if I had any concerns.
I can’t recommend Charlotte highly enough and hope that we will be lucky enough to be chosen by her again at some point in the future so Ernie can have a partner in sock stealing crime!!!

The experience of buying a puppy from Charlotte was pure joy from start to finish. It was incredibly important to me to find a breeder who was thorough, knowledgeable and most importantly who put the needs and happiness of her dogs and her puppies above all else. The moment I spoke to Charlotte I knew I had found the breeder I had spent so many years searching for.
Charlotte ensures that she does all of the health testing and paperwork to absolute gold standard, but not only that – she also educates her families about exactly what they should be expecting, looking out for and asking, every step of the way.
Another reason I felt so incredibly excited to have found Charlotte is her ongoing commitment to further educating herself on the welfare of dogs and pups. The advice and guidance I got from Charlotte on calming and comforting our pup; from sling wearing to massaging to the calm soothing noises she makes have made such a positive difference to our pup and us.
As part of Charlotte’s programme we visited our little pup baby every week; bonding, being lucky enough to witness her first chapter of puppyhood and slowly building our confidence with being pup owners. This was an experience our whole family will always treasure. When we picked our Bibi up to take her home with us, we were prepared and ready, we had already bonded with her and – vitally – Bibi knew us, felt confident and safe with us, and was completely happy and contended with us taking her home. There was not an unhappy whine, she just nuzzled into us, enjoying snuggles and love and confidently explored her new surroundings. I know that Bibi having such a happy transition into our home was entirely thanks to Charlotte and the time, energy and love that she put into raising her and ensuring that Bibi had already bonded with us.
In the months since we picked our pup up Charlotte has always been a mere text or phone call away – she loves her pups and she truly cares for all of her families – and is always happy to offer thoughts or advice when us new puppy parents become unsure 🙂 Our pup is a happy, confident, incredibly loving little sweetheart and we could not imagine life without her – and I couldn’t have imagined her coming from anyone but Charlotte.
We will always be so grateful Charlotte. You welcomed us into your home and into your beautiful way of raising happy, healthy pups and in doing so you changed our lives forever. Thank you ❤️

I met Charlotte earlier this year after first getting in touch at the end of November last year.?
I had lost our cocker spaniel Evie last summer? and having had dogs for 30 years I didn’t think I could go through losing another one. My vet knew better he said see you soon and by the end of the year I knew our home was missing a wet nose and that welcome at the door when you walk through it.?
I researched online and came across lotties Cavapoos and got in touch with Charlotte in November and then met her at the beginning of the year and got to meet Susies litter who were all so beautiful.???? I decided there and then that Charlotte was the breeder for me and I knew that my research online had brought me to the right person.?
I loved reading all about her family and how she became a breeder, it was very touching. The knowledge and care that she gives to her girls and puppies is outstanding. From 4 weeks she involves the families and invites you into her home for the next 4 weeks so that your puppy gets to know you and you can also grow in confidence in handling your new baby.?
The puppies are born in the family home and very much loved and looked after.
Charlotte knits beautiful blankets for all the puppies and we chose some to take home and we had to bring one back on week 2 after having it draped over each of us all week ? so that the puppy got used to our smells.
So much goes into those 4 weeks Charlotte gets them used to different sounds and introduces a crate. She introduces them to a harness and when we got to week 3 we were walking round the room with Daisy on the lead and harness and doing sits with some chicken treats.?
Since coming home she has grown in confidence and settled very quickly into her new surroundings. She loves her safe place (her crate)and is happy playing in her playpen. She sleeps through the night and is housetrained letting us know by tapping on the door when she wants to go out.
Even though it’s been difficult to meet as many people as we would have liked because of Covid of the family and friends we have been able to meet she is very relaxed and happy. ?
I put all this down to the dedication and hard work that Charlotte put in.
During Covid there has been much in the news (Last night on the one show) about how some breeders have increased there prices after agreeing a price with buyers, and how some families have been left heartbroken when there puppy was sold to someone else willing to pay the higher price. Charlotte kept to the price given to us from the start which shows her trustworthiness.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Charlotte if you are wanting a puppy in the future as you will get so much more and she is always there to help you.
Many thanks Charlotte for our beautiful girl! Rob and Jan Steel xx??

Our adorable Archie joined our family just over 6 weeks ago and we can honestly say it’s been the best experience ever!
We’d read rave reviews about Charlotte so when she contacted us about Archie we were over the moon.
From the moment we met her and her delightful family when Archie was 4 weeks old, she provided us with plenty of helpful advice and information on a range of issues about owning a cavapoo. As first-time dog owners this was invaluable!
We visited Archie every week watching him play with his brother and sister and each time noticing the genuine love and care Charlotte displayed for the puppies. We never felt rushed and couldn’t wait for the next visit to come round.
During these visits Charlotte also provided us with all the important documents relating to Archie’s parentage and health checks.
One of the things that impressed us most was how she went the “extra mile” over a typical breeder. She gave us a beautiful hand-knitted blanket, taught Archie to “sit” and “come” and even took videos of his first bath and hair drying experience to help us.
The day we collected Archie, we went through all the necessary paperwork, including a contract, vaccination records and microchipping documents. Charlotte also gave us a delightful bag of goodies including a beautiful canvas print of Archie as a baby pup.
On Charlotte’s advice we are crating Archie and it’s working really well. We’ve had a few little house training accidents but Archie now lets us know when he needs to go out to do his business.
Now he’s fully vaccinated, we’re loving getting out and about with our little boy, enjoying riverside walks and fun in the local park, socialising with other dogs and their owners.
We’re thrilled how well Archie is doing and it’s all down to Charlotte giving him such a brilliant start to life. We can’t thank her enough. Xxxx

We took home our darling Merlin just over 4 weeks ago, he is now 12 weeks and 5 days. I cannot recommend Lotties Cavapoos highly enough. Our first experience of trying to buy a puppy was not a positive one and had it not been for the amazing information and videos that Charlotte shares so generously our story could have been very different. We had to make the very difficult decision to walk away from a breeder we found to be unethical but our story has ended so well and we are so happy and well supported with Charlotte as a breeder. From the start of the journey she was nothing but helpful and informative, open and honest with a real passion for educating us about how important it is to know everything about the puppy and to have all the necessary documents about the puppy’s parents. We visited Merlin a total of 5 times before we took him home – we live in London and so this meant a big commitment on our behalf, but it was the most incredibly valuable experience. We didn’t know anything about having a puppy and we learned so much that when we took Merlin home we felt really confident. The first visit we were allowed to spend as long as we liked, with no pressure, to choose our pup. All the paper work was available and Charlotte explained it all to us. We only gave a deposit once we had chosen Merlin. We saw Merlin with Susie (his mummy) and auntie (Lily) and it was the most gorgeous experience giving us such reassurance as to what a happy start Merlin was having in life. Everything was there for us to see, and it was lovely to see the pups genuinely being brought up in the heart of the family. The care they were all being given was such a high standard, everything so hygienic, clean, lots of stimulating toys, the best food and loads of love and care. Charlotte let us pick one of her gorgeous hand knitted blankets to take home to fill with our smells to bring back for Merlin so that he would get to know us! The next 4 visits we experienced all kinds of things with our pup. Watching him play with his siblings, playing and interacting with him ourselves with his toys, learning how to put on his harness and use commands like ‘sit’ and ‘come’. When we came to pick Merlin up we signed a proper puppy contract and took away all the necessary paper work and information including his vet check and vaccination records, he was micro-chipped and best of all knew us so well that we felt so confident taking him. Not only did we have all the documentation but Charlotte sent us on our way with a bag full of Merlin treats, food for the first month, blankets smelling of his family and mother and even a gorgeous canvas print of him as a little pup. We felt very overwhelmed by her generosity. Our journey with Charlotte has not stopped there. She has been such a support with all our questions. However, she also made our journey so easy because from the moment we took Merlin home he slept the night through in his crate due to his crate training with his siblings and used puppy pads (washable!) to do his pees and poops! I think we’ve only had about 2 accidents (due to over-excitement). Its incredible. Merlin arrived familiar with all the noises of family life and when we picked him up he was used to the car (although maybe not a 3 hour journey!) He already enjoyed putting on his harness and would sit and come on command which we have continued so he is really responding to training. He literally jumped into his sling when we took him out as Charlotte had introduced him to this too. We gave him his first bath this evening and due to the fact that Charlotte had done this for us at 8 weeks he was not phased and enjoyed the experience, even the hair drying afterwards (using a really cool doggie hair dryer that Charlotte recommended). I have texted many times to ask little questions and nothing has been too much trouble, Charlotte answering so quickly and calmly. We now can’t imagine life without him! Thank you to Lotties Cavapoos.

I found Charlotte having read a book about Cavapoos that she had contributed to and it seemed from looking at her website and Instagram that she was a very experienced and reputable breeder and this was confirmed when we then spoke on the phone and she told me more about herself and how she ‘does things’.
I was on the list to have a puppy from Charlotte’s summer 2019 litter, but then in the spring, difficult personal circumstances meant it wasn’t going to to be a good time. Charlotte was so understanding and was really kind about me postponing to a later time when I was feeling better. Fast forward to autumn 2019 and Charlotte was ever so positive and welcome to putting me on the next litter.
Florence (now named) and her two brothers were born in early December and at 4 weeks old, Charlotte and her lovely family welcomed me into her home every week – initially to meet and pick my puppy from the litter and then a further 4 visits for socialisation and playtime and opportunities to bond with my puppy and ask (lots !) of questions. All of this was SO much better ( and confidence building – for me and puppy) than the practices of some of the other breeders I had come across who require a deposit to be on the list, to pick your puppy from photographs, then wanted another huge deposit, offered no socialisation meetings and then you wouldn’t meet your puppy till take home day.
The experience with Charlotte was quite the opposite, and it was clear from my visits that the puppies were in a lovely family home, with their mother and aunt, and two cats, and were being well taken care of. Charlotte also starts the training straight away and sends messages and pictures to you AND shows updates on training and progress on her Instagram page. Charlotte starts potty training, ‘sit’ and ‘come’ as well as crate, harness and lead training.
She sends you home with all the relevant documentation for your puppy ( heritage, health, chip, and insurance ) and so much info and all the Q&A paperwork you could need. PLUS two of her hand knitted blankets. (One of which she gives you to take away on week one, so you can sleep with it then bring it back and the puppy can then smell your scent in between visits)
She’s thought of everything and takes so much care with the puppies and with the families her puppies go to. She also makes clear that she will be on hand on the phone if you have ANY question or worries. I needed to take her up on that a few times!
Thanks to Charlotte –
On take home day, Florence was totally calm & fine in the car on the way home and has settled in so well. From night 1 she has slept from 10.30pm to 6am on her crate with NO barking or crying.
From day 2 she has been meeting new people nearly every day, and loves it!
On day 3 she had to come out with me to work and after a some initial uncertainty, she was happy on the tube and has been ever since.
On day 4 she had her first visit to the pub and was completely chilled, just slept on my lap.
From last week she has been socialising with other ( inoculated dogs ) and has been confident and playful.
The trainer I have coming once a week has commented that she has never worked with such a well adjusted puppy with such a lovely temperament – she now wants one of Charlotte’s puppies!
Florence is now 12 weeks old (I’ve had her a month now) and as I type she’s amusing herself playing in her playpen. She’s such a lovely gorgeous girl! Everyone who meets her adores her and says how lovely and calm she is. (Of course she does have the odd half hour very day when she goes a bit bonkers but it’s amusing more than anything else)
Oh, and she is well on the way to being housetrained, having learnt to ring bells attached to the back door to go out.
ALL of the above I put to down to Charlotte’s knowledge, experience, care, love and commitment.
Cannot recommend enough!
Thank you Charlotte. Xx

Watching the videos of Charlotte training the latest pups makes me feel quite nostalgic for how small our 8 month old Cavapoo from her, Barney, once was. It also reminds me what a great choice of breeder she was – her process is intense and requires weekly trips to Southampton but it means you get to bring home an incredibly well balanced and already well trained puppy who, crucially, knows you and your family already so is spared some (most?) of the trauma of changing homes. There is nothing Charlotte wouldn’t do for her puppies, from socialising them to harnesses and slings to rides in the car – anything to help them settle smoothly and calmly into their new lives. I found looking for a Cavapoo breeder incredibly difficult and had a narrow escape from the first breeder I visited. I cannot recommend Charlotte highly enough – you need have no concerns about getting your puppy from her.

We collected our handsome Cavapoo from Charlotte a month ago and we feel that we could not have made a better choice than to choose Charlotte as the breeder we purchased our puppy from. We spent a long time researching the breed and finding a suitable registered breeder that we were happy to purchase our pup from, Charlotte doesn’t have a waiting list until the pregnancy is confirmed and doesn’t ask for a deposit to be included on this list. Before Charlotte accepted us as one of the lucky families for this litter she spent time finding out about us and our setup to ensure we were the right people for her pups. As Charlotte only has one litter at a time she is able to give 100% to care for and develop the pups ready for them to go to their families. Most importantly Charlotte is always available to answer any questions or queries that you have regarding your puppy and doesn’t just ship them out and forget about them
We visited our pup every week from 4 weeks old so we were able to bond with him and watch his development personally. We spent time watching his interaction with Charlotte and her family and ourselves as well as his brothers and sister so we knew we were getting a confident little boy that was well adjusted to us from the moment we brought him home.
Before we collected him he was already crate trained, toilet training had been started, he had a good knowledge of basic commands, was used to travelling in a car, he was also used to being groomed and bathed. Charlotte had also spent time desensitising the litter to lots of different noises which proved to be a godsend as the first night in our home we had thunderstorms and he wasn’t affected at all and slept through the night from the first night.
Charlotte spent time going through all of the health testing of our boy parents and further back with us and ensured that he had a full health check, was micro chipped and had his 1st vaccinations before he was brought home and gave us all the documentation to take home.
Shelby truly is a gorgeous confident and loving little boy that asks for nothing but cuddles ( as this is being written he is curled up on my lap asleep) and maybe a liver treat occasionally and would recommend anyone that is looking for a cavapoo to consider buying from Charlotte.

We recently brought home our gorgeous boy Cavapoo from Charlotte. We did a lot of research and feel we couldn’t have found a better breeder. Charlotte cares so much about her puppies and their parents and only ever has one litter at time which means she dedicates her full attention to mum and puppies. We were able to visit our puppy in Charlotte’s home every week so that we got to know each other and this has been crucial to him settling in so well. Before he came to us, he was already crate trained, able to follow basic commands, travel in a car, wear his harness, have a bath, be well on his way to being toilet trained and was well socialised in a clean, loving home and more. He has a lovely nature and is beautiful and healthy. Importantly, our puppy and its parents came with all the health tests and documentation and from way back before too. There are a lot of breeders out there that have more than one litter at a time, ask for money to go on a list or move up a list, don’t have the health tests and genuine documentation or don’t question who is buying their puppies and we wouldn’t have gone near any of them no matter how much we wanted a Cavapoo. Charlotte has provided us with so much valuable information and is always available should we need to ask her advice on anything. Charlotte works so hard and we couldn’t have been happier with everything she has done. We have a wonderful Cavapoo! Thank you Charlotte.

We brought Molly home from Charlotte in July 2019 and we’ve been delighted with what a confident and outgoing puppy she is thanks to Charlotte’s dedicated socialisation of Molly and her siblings. She is now twelve weeks and loves people, is extremely affectionate and clearly very intelligent. We’re loving having her in our family.

I did a lot of research before choosing a breeder and Charlotte is streets ahead of the others I contacted and visited. All her puppies are very well looked after and dearly loved. We are delighted with Monty who is now 11 weeks old and has made himself very much at home. He was already crate trained and he has slept through without any issue since the day he came to us. Charlotte actively encourages you to go and visit weekly before the pups are ready to come home and this was invaluable – as was her advice and support and patience with our endless questions!!

What a fantastic breeder! Great communication from Charlotte once she had chosen us to be parents of one of her fur baby Cavapoos. Fortunately we lived close enough to visit each weekend prior to picking up our beautiful bundle of fluff; Charlotte & her family helped so much with our young children to meet, start to bond & grow confidence with the puppy.
Puppy is very happy, loving & well socialised both with people & general household noises.
Charlotte is very supportive both before with updates right through to shopping lists and after we had brought puppy home & settling in. Couldn’t ask for any better, many thanks.

We really could not have hoped for more in our incredible Cavapoo breeder, Charlotte.
When we look at Balfour (our 11-week old Cavapoo) now – it is clear how well he was looked after from the moment he was born. He is a calm, sweet-natured and friendly member of our family. He is intelligent and healthy and obviously the product of a loving and caring breeder.
Charlotte impressed us from the very beginning by the lengths she went to ensure that we would be suitable dog-owners and new parents to one of her puppies. Her eagle-eyed interviewing gave us confidence that she cared deeply about the puppies’ welfare; for the rest of their lives. When we came to visit, we could see Balfour’s mum Rosiella, taking wonderful care of her litter in a clean and safe environment. The puppies were being well socialised with lots of visitors and different sounds – we know that’s why Balfour is so relaxed around new people and experiences now.
Charlotte also took us through the various veterinary and genetic testing that Balfour’s parents had undergone to check that their litters would be healthy. She explained all the paperwork including how the chipping system works.
Most importantly, Charlotte has been a huge support to us as first-time dog owners. She is always available for advice and we know she always will!
Thank you Charlotte xx

Poppy was one of 4 beautiful puppy’s from Charlottes 1st F1b litter in Jan 16.
I was chatting to Charlotte about 8 months before that and she is so polite and professional throughout the whole process.
When visiting Charlotte, her family, mum and pups Charlotte was very knowledgable and supportive. She opened her home so we could visit anytime we wanted.
We have now had Poppy just over 2 months and from day one she fitted in – it was like she had been living with us for ages. She is adorable, so well natured and is amazing with our 2 year daughter (which was something I wanted to get right when looking for a breeder and breed). They are the best of friends and when out in the park or at home poppy doesn’t leave her side. Poppy has been super easy to train abd loves to learn – she’s so clever 🙂 . We absolutely love her and we are very lucky to have her in our lives. Thank you for being such an amazing breeder and producing such beautiful pups.

We picked up Lucy at 8 weeks old and is now 4 months. Charlotte is an amazing breeder and the love and care she gives her puppies shows. Lucy is a beautifully natured dog, well socialised and settled into our family within the day of bringing her home. She is a secure dog and delightful. It’s a testament to the way Charlotte raises her pups. She made plenty of time for us to choose and then let us visit Lucy several times before collection. She is an ethical, caring and excellent breeder raising the pups in the home in a warm family environment. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.

Charlotte has been fantastic throughout and as we lived locally were able to visit and bond with our little Cookie for a month before bringing him home almost a week ago.

We have had our bichonpoo for five weeks now. He is a happy, fun loving and healthy puppy. I cannot recommend the breeder highly enough, who has always been very supportive with any problem you may have. Many thanks Charlotte for little Rupert Dewi.
We have now had our bichonpoo Lola for a week and she has settled into her crate at night really well. She is a half sister to Millie who is 17 months old and the two of them are getting on really well, lots of puppy play with Millie which seems to be great fun and will be great company for one another. I decided to go back to Charlotte when I decided to have a friend for Millie as she is an excellent breeder with a great family who loves and cares for all the puppys. Millie is such a lovely dog with a super temperament and I know Lola will take after her.
Many thanks Charlotte for all the visits to see Lola and advice.xx

We have had our bichonpoo Lola for a week now, she has been very good at night and settled very quickly in her crate. She is a half sister to Millie who is 17 months old who is a lovely friendly dog which is why I have gone back to Charlotte as she is an excellent breeder bringing the pups up in a lovely family environment with lots of love and care. Really glad I have decided to have Lola as Millie and her are making friends and will be really good company as they get older.I would never have gone to any one else as these puppies are so well looked after and Mum Poppy is a happy healthy dog. Thank you Charlotte for both our lovely bichonpoos.xx

After deciding to buy a puppy my friend recommended Charlottes website. Charlotte is a very kind and caring lady and was very thorough with her questions in order to give Mollie the best home. We came away feeling very confident after all of the information we were given. It has been so reassuring to know that Charlotte is at the end of the phone and she has offered much welcome advice. If anyone wants to buy a puppy I would definitely recommend Charlotte. She is very sincere and had much love for what she does.

On recommendation from a dog walker we found Charlotte. As soon as i rang to enquire i knew that we were purchasing from a breeder that knows her stuff. I have had the ‘wool pulled over my eyes’ by a breeder in the past and sold me a puppy that was very poorly and definately the wrong breed but anyhow – Charlotte is great, we got Hugo (bichon-poo) who is such a lovely boy – so healthy and confident, he has fitted in so well with all the family. I would have absolutely no doubts going back to Charlotte as i know how much love and care goes into the pups! I would definately recommend Charlotte.

After loosing our beloved Cavalier last year we researched and decided on a Cavapoo as our next furbaby. We happily came across Charlotte’s site and from reading her guide and previous customer comments knew we had found our perfect breeder. From speaking to Charlotte and meeting her, her family and Furkids her passion and care as a breeder was clear. We welcomed Dexter home on 1st April having already had plenty of time bonding with him thanks to Charlotte encouraging us to visit numerous times from 4 weeks old. I now would not go to any other breeder and would strongly recommend Charlotte to anyone. Thanks to his fantastic start in Charlotte’s home he is well socialised and a very happy boy. Thank you Charlotte for our handsome little Prince xx

We first welcome Buddy into our family in October 2012, one from charlottes cavapoo litter. We were so please that put our name down on her waiting list for another when we decided to have another fur kid. Holly came to us on 1st April. I wouldn’t go to anyone else for a pup!

We purchased a biconpoo puppie called Archie in January. He is our first dog and we were very nervous. Charlotte was amazing and always available if we had any queries. Archie fitted into our family immediately he was and is so social. A real little star. Buying a pup from a family environment really makes a difference as they are so friendly. Thanks Charlotte

We have become the proud owners of a little girl bichonpoo puppy from Poppy and George’s litter and can highly recommend Charlotte as the most wonderful breeder. The whole process was made so easy right from choosing a puppy through to the support she is still giving now that Winnie is living with us. We are absolutely delighted with our gorgeous puppy and feel that Charlotte and her lovely family have become friends. They regularly invited us to visit Winnie so that a strong relationship developed between us and our new puppy. This has made the whole process of bringing her home so easy because she knew us and we knew her. She is a well socialised, healthy, loving and intelligent puppy and I have no doubt at all that this is because of the fantastic care and attention that Charlotte has given to her and all of the furkids she produces. We are so pleased we found you, Charlotte!! xxx

Thank you Charlotte for breeding such a wonderful, happy, healthy, playful, intelligent, cuddly (could say so much more) Bichonpoo. We are totally smitten with our Rosie, she has a lovely temperament and is one of clever Poppy and George’s litter. Having done quite a lot of research we were very pleased to find Charlotte’s informative website and following a telephone conversation with her she lived up to our first impression and could not have been more helpful without any pressure. She and her lovely family of kids and fur kids then welcomed us into their home to meet and chat further, again with no pressure. We met all the family in a happy, homely environment and puppies and dogs were clearly loved and well socialised. Charlotte is very open and full of helpful advice and guidance especially for novice dog owners like ourselves. The reassurance of her being available for contact 24/7 following puppy coming home has given us the confidence that we are doing right by Rosie and she is a bright little bundle of fun thriving happily in our home. We certainly recommend Charlotte and her puppies. Thank you for our Rosie. xx

We bought Freddie from Charlotte in February 2102, her first litter. He is the most adorable dog, super temperament, he is very sociable and loves mixing with other dogs. He loves his cuddles! Wherever we are he is, he has fitted into our family so well. Charlotte was brilliant allowing us to visit him frequently before collecting him. We love him to bits xxx

We have the most adorable puppy called Remy from Annies puppies June 2013. I was very lucky to come across Charlotte last year and was fortunate to be added to Annies waiting list! I could have looked around for other breeders but from my first conversation with Charlotte i knew she was the perfect breeder for us. We have a 15 year old son with Autism who was not keen on us getting a puppy but from when we first went to see the puppies Charlotte was amazing with him. She really encouraged him to get involved and he keeps in contact with Charlotte, updating her how Remy is doing. Everywhere we go,everybody loves Remy and they want her!! She is so confident and friendly. I give Charlottes website out on a daily basis!! A great big thank you to Charlotte and her lovely family for our beautiful Remy xxxx

We have had Maisy for two weeks now (she is from Annie’s June litter). She is a delightful dog who has clearly been given a wonderful start in life by charlotte as her breeder. It is obvious Charlotte cares deeply about her puppies and has a strong sense of responsibility to her role as a breeder. Maisy has been well socialised living in Charlotte’s household and is clearly used to family life. Physically she is in great condition, (we had her double checked by our vet when we collected her) and that’s all due to Charlotte’s attention in those very early days.
We have never had a dog before and Charlotte has been very helpful with our questions and always available if needed.
Charlotte is a fantastic breeder and I would not hesitate in recommending her to others.
We have had Bella for two weeks now from Annies litter, she is a happy and healthy puppy and settled in very well to our household, we are first time dog owners so needed a lot of guidance from Charlotte which she gave to us from the start, I would thoroughly recommend her as a breeder, a lovely and caring person and always there to guide you through the early days.

We were delighted to welcome Dennis and Stan to our family (two puppies from Annie’s litter born June 2013) just under a fortnight ago. They are happy and healthy pups and have settled into our family really well. We would not have any hesitation in recommending Charlotte as a breeder as it is obvious when you speak to her on the phone and meet her face to face that the welfare and happiness of her furkids are her top priority. We were welcomed into the family home and treated as friends, not only by Charlotte but by the rest of her family also. Charlotte is happy to answer any questions that you may have both before and after giving one (or two in our case!) of her puppies a forever home.

I have nothing to say other than praise for Charlotte as a Breeder. We welcomed Milly (one of Annie’s litter from June 2013)into our home a week ago. She has settled virtually immediately and is the calmest, sweetest little thing…Charlotte has done an amazing job starting her off on such a steady footing. I thoroughly recommend her as a Breeder, and she is always on hand after you take one her pups home, just in case you need reassurance which is great too!

Charlotte is an amazing lady who loves her fur kids so much. We feel extremely lucky to have given one of her puppies her forever home. We welcomed Molly home nearly 3 weeks ago and she settled in instantly. We have 5 children and another cavapoo called Chester who is 11 months old. Molly was so well socialised her settling in period was seamless, she slept through the night from the day she came into our home. Noise and the hustle and bustle of our family home did not faze her at all, in fact I think she thrives on it. She adores her companion Chester, who after a few days accepted her and adores her equally. If your chosen to welcome a cavapoo from Charlotte you will be giving a home to not only a beautiful pet but you will also inherit a life long friend, Charlotte.

Charlotte looks after her puppies and dogs o well! we bought Jess from charlotte back in april. My mum had been searching and searching for a long time, then we found charlotte and she seemed like the perfect breeder! she looked after the dogs so well. most of her injections had been taken care of and clearly is very attched to her dogs as it was hard for her to let go but she let us pop round as much as we felt needed to get to know the environment jess had been living in and to be honest our last visit she was ready to come back with us. Jess nearly knew her name by the time we took her home! so i STRONGLY advise you to look into getting a Cavapoo as they are fantastic and if you want a trustworthy breeder charlotte is definitely the perfect breeder if your looking for a perfect puppy !!! Thankyou (sorry about how long!)

We bought Nala from Charlotte last April from her first litter. I did hours of research when looking for a pup as a really wanted one from a home breeder so that the pup was well socialised and born in a house. Nala has just turned a year old. She is the most adorable dog, very well behaved, she’s been quick to learn – even learning some tricks. Charlotte was great. She clearly loves her dogs and becomes very attached to her pups. She let us visit on a number of occasions before Nala was ready to come home. I am so glad we got our dog from Charlotte. Thanks

We bought Mowgli from Charlotte in February 2012, from Lottie’s first litter. Charlotte adores her dogs and gets very attached to the puppies too. Her advice was valuable and comprehensive which was useful as although we already had a dog we’d never had a small breed before. It was reassuring to know that all the health checks were done. We were also happy to hear that Cavapoos are robust and confident – and not yappy!
The busy and loving environment they are bred in means that Charlotte’s puppies are socialised very early; they affectionate and calm, unfazed by children, strange dogs of all shapes and sizes, or new people. Mowgli is cheeky yet laid back, fun, energetic and very loving. He is totally devoted to us and to our older dog and loves to run for miles in the woods with us.
Thank you, Charlotte, for making the whole puppy buying experience so positive and giving us our lovely boy.

Bonnie was the only girl from Rosie’s and Rupert’s latest litter and she is a perfect puppy – playful, loving, friendly and extremly cute. Thanks to Charlotte who contacted us, when Bonnie became available, she is now part of our family.
Charlotte has been extremly helpful throughout the whole process from when we met Bonnie until we picked her up at 8,5 weeks. She let us see Bonnie twice a week, as we were living close by and made the separation from the litter painless for us… Puppy was already well socialize when we got her, coming from Charlotte’s busy house she is now brilliant with children, other dogs and cats. Thank you very much Charlotte!

We welcomed Teddy into our family almost a month ago. He has been fantastic so far, really calm (for a puppy!), friendly with our 4 young children, and we are delighted with him!
Charlotte was really helpful with lots of information we needed, and didn’t hassle us to make a decision!!
It is obviously a safe and caring environment that her puppies are being bred in, and we would be very happy to recommend anyone looking to go for it…

After deciding it was time for a four legged addition to our family we started researching breeds and breeders and thats when we came across Charlotte. After our initial phone call I came away exited to have found someone who seemed so passionate about what she did. When we came to visit the litter of pups we knew we had made a great dession. Charlotte didn’t rush us, we were introduced to both parents and taken through all medicals tests from both mum and dad. We fell in love with what is now our “buddy” and after committing to him, Charlotte let me and my family come and visit each week and also gave me regular email/text updates until Buddy was ready to come home.
Amazing breeder who clearly loves the pups she breeds.x

It is evident from first speaking to Charlotte that she cares about her dogs. The breeding environment is caring & homely, this was important to us. Charlotte was extremely helpful throughout the whole process, she covers all the bases if you are new to puppy ownership. We couldn’t be happier with our puppy Max.

We bought our puppy Izzie from Charlotte in the summer. She is a delight – a really friendly, healthy, beautiful dog! As she was due to come to us just at the start of the summer holiday period, and we already had a holiday away booked a few weeks later, Charlotte helped out by looking after her for us while we were away. A really good breeder to buy from.
Lottie’s really is the most fantastic place to start your puppy journey and we couldn’t recommend Charlotte or her programme more!!
We have ended up with the most beautiful, calm, and well-balanced puppy. From the very first approach the process was simple, clear, and supported in its entirety by Charlotte. After our initial conversation, where Charlotte got to know us and was very thorough in her questions, we had an initial phone call. This was a brilliant opportunity for us to get to know Lottie, for her to get to know us and for us to ask any questions, no matter how big or small. This really helped us to build a connection to know we had a good breeder and for Lottie to know we were the right family for her puppy.
After we were all comfortable, we were able to meet the litter and select our puppy. This visit was brilliant, not only could we visit our puppy we met the entire litter, mum, and Lottie. Lottie was amazing, so honest and opened her home in its entirety to us, there are no secrets in terms of the dogs and the environment they live. Lottie went through all the documents with us to support our puppy, mum’s testing and heritage, dad’s testing and heritage, breed information, training information, scheduling etc. all of which we were able to take home with us on final collection.
From that point we would visit Lottie once a week to meet the pup, ask any questions and to train and bond together. These weeks were invaluable and set us and our pup in the strongest manner. You can really tell that the puppies and mums’ welfare is the center of everything she does. Another simple thing but Lottie using the name we had selected really helped in shaping our training with puppy before and after they came home. At week 3 in the process, we were allowed to bring our current dog to meet the pup and make sure there were no issues. Every weekend was different but supported us in making sure puppies, our current dog and our transition was seamless.
When it came time to take our little one home, we couldn’t have asked for better. Lottie meticulously went through all the paperwork, we were given puppies food, organic goodies to support keeping puppy clean, a blanket she had been sleeping on and several toys. Alongside all of this Lottie was always at the end of the phone when you needed her, she checked in with us consistently over the first month and was so helpful with any challenges or concerns. She is always there even now when we need her!
We have had our Pup going on 4 months now and she is thriving, and it is no understatement to say the largest part of that is down to Lottie’s attention to detail, the time and effort she puts into supporting her puppies in their first weeks and her overall love for every puppy she raises and every dog she has.
Lottie really is a credit to dog breeding, if every owner and puppy was supported the way we were and are, you would have a much better world for dogs!
We knew we wanted to work with Lottie years before we knew we wanted a second dog. Her attention to detail and the love she has for her puppies is unmatched. She is also incredibly knowledgeable about breeding and has thought of everything! What stood out for us is she had as much love and kindness for our current dog as she had for her own throughout the entire process. She gave so much advice on settling them both in together, we used scented blankets to get them used to each other and they got to meet twice before our puppy came home – it made everything run so much smoother. They co-existed well from day 1 and were playing 5 days in which is huge!
Ernie is a confident and healthy little puppy with a huge personality and the perfect addition to our little family. Our first dog was a rescue puppy at 15 weeks and we can really tell the difference in their temperament during puppyhood. He is smart, affectionate, quirky and incredibly cute! We travelled 2 and a half hours each way for the weekly visits and we have no regrets! Highly recommended.
When we finally decided the time was right to add a puppy to our family it was really important to me to find the right breeder. Charlotte turned out to be even better than we could have wished for. She puts so much time and energy into ensuring her puppies are Healthy, well socialised and that the families are prepared to bring home their precious fur babies.
We loved the weekend sessions she does which enable you to get to know the puppy and the puppy to be comfortable with the family. Due to this when we brought home Bella she was so happy and content. She settled quickly, hardly even whimpered the first night and has been amazing ever since. She could already understand basic commands and was almost toilet trained. I feel so thankful that we were privileged enough to get one of Charlotte’s puppies and have been singing her praises to all our friends and family.
I was meticulous in my search for the best Cavapoo breeder I could find because I wanted my puppy to have had a great start in life and, at every turn, all roads pointed to Southampton and to Charlotte.
Lottie and her family are devoted to their dogs and to their puppies so she has a high bar set for prospective families, and for herself, actually. This includes the requirement to attend weekly meetings at her very welcoming home, and that, in my opinion, is what sets her apart from others. I must say the 1.5 hour round trip every Sunday was arduous, but the thought of seeing Harris’s little face and to feel the bond growing every week between us, made it absolutely worthwhile. I cannot imagine what it would have been like taking him home at 8 weeks without having had that relationship building start that we had. This is invaluable and I applaud Charlotte for making this a dealbreaker.
I got to know Charlotte really well through our visits and through the updates she sent throughout the whole process, and I’m delighted to confirm, as other have already, that the relationship with her doesn’t end with the puppies leaving at 8 weeks old. She’s open to giving whatever advice is needed and has been at the end of the phone to answer any of my basic and stupid questions – there have been plenty of those – and she responds almost immediately with care and attention.
Testament to Charlotte, Harris is a beautiful little boy, he has the most wonderful and sociable temperament, and everyone who meets is completely won over. He has become quite the little star attraction around our streets! Thank you, Charlotte, I couldn’t have asked for more xxx
We are so delighted with our lovely puppy and so grateful to Charlotte for her care and support throughout.
As first time puppy parents we have benefitted enormously from her expertise, wisdom and time. Visiting Toby every week before bringing him home helped us to bond and it was amazing to see him making progress with his training week by week.
Toby continues to be an absolute delight who has adapted beautifully to his new home, sleeping through the night from the off and very quickly getting used to his new routines. I’m quite sure that this is largely down to the strong foundations laid by Charlotte during the early days.
We feel so lucky to have been able to offer a home to one of Charlotte’s puppies and I we can’t recommend her highly enough – super professional, caring and most importantly absolutely devoted to her dogs and their babies. Thank you Charlotte.
Charlotte is absolutely fantastic and we could not have found a better breeder!
She is extremely thorough and loves for each puppy and her dogs. The effort she puts in is displayed throughout all contact with her.
Her dogs and all the puppies are well cared for in her lovely home which she welcomes families into for the four weekend visits. She is there for any advice and will be at the end of the phone for the puppy’s life.
Our puppy has been so good and it has made such a difference being brought up by Charlotte! He is a lovely little man who is happy and had a great start to life.
Charlotte carefully chooses families to ensure they only go to suitable people who will love the puppies as much as she does. She gives thorough breeding information including health checks and offers very good advice throughout the whole journey.
We are so pleased we found Charlotte and could only wish more breeders are like her. She is a gem!
What can I say about Charlotte, she lovely let me have one of her beautiful fur babies, we had been looking at getting a puppy for some time and the our beautiful Luna came into our lives at the right time. From the first moment you meet Charlotte you feel at ease and can see all the love she gives her fur babies. The 4 weeks sessions were so helpful and it meant our baby girl got to know us. She always at the end of the phone for any quires you may have even if you may need just a chat to make sure you baby is on the right track. Her fur babies are confident and the training she gives before collection is amazing. I can thank her enough for allowing to have one her babies. Thank you Charlotte so much, from me and my family and of course Luna xx
We’ve had the most amazing experience with Charlotte and we would highly recommend her, as she really is the best breeder there is!
We spent many hours researching what it takes to look after a puppy and we soon realised that Charlotte was everything we wanted from a breeder and exactly the right person to help us on our journey.
From the very start of the process, Charlotte was so lovely and always replied quickly, answering my numerous questions and messages with patience and loveliness!
The family sessions were invaluable and Charlotte opened up her home every weekend for a month, focussing on aspects such as lead training, command training and other important bonding sessions that were just brilliant.
It’s extremely evident how much Charlotte cares for all her puppies and the love, care and attention she gives to each and every one of them. This individual love, care and training means that they are content and mentally stable by the time they are ready for their forever home.
Charlotte is always on hand to offer advice, support and encouragement whenever we need it, even now, 6 months on, and we know she will always be there for us.
As first time puppy owners, we really wanted to get it right and Lottie’s Cavapoos made it a family experience that we’ll always treasure. We now have a beautiful puppy with a wonderful temperament and we just couldn’t be happier. Thank you Charlotte for choosing us to have one of your precious fur babies – we love you!
Finding Lottie literally changed our lives. I looked up top Cavapoo breeders in the UK and after looking into quite a few of them it was clear that Lottie was, in my eyes the best fit for us. I messaged and explained our personal circumstances. We hit it off instantly and I was blown away to be offered the chance to choose one of her fur babies. Everything I needed to know was laid out right from the beginning. We know we’d have to commit to the weekly visits and at a 5hr round trip it was quite the commitment. However, I’m so incredibly glad we did it. As first time puppy owners it gave us so much confidence and time to bond with our little lady. Charlotte loves every single puppy and gives them so much care and attention. It’s not just the emotional support she offers there’s all the documentation too. She’s meticulous with her paperwork and history of both parents. All vets information is provided too. On the day we took our puppy home we both sobbed and had a great big hug. I honestly feel I have a friend for life after the journey we’ve been on. I wish all breeders were as wonderful. If we ever choose to add another puppy to our family I wouldn’t think twice about going back to Lottie. I just hope we’ll be lucky enough to get one!
We got our pup from Charlotte in December 2021 so we’ve just spent our second Christmas with her! Our lives changed forever the first time we met Charlotte and every day I am thankful that Charlotte chose us to have one of her precious cavapoo pups, I honestly cannot believe our luck. We live over two hours away so the weekly sessions were a big commitment but we reaped the benefits of bonding with our puppy every week! Charlotte is a true professional and at the first session she meticulously went through all of the paperwork as well as us seeing the pups being fed by their mum and choosing our pup. The sessions are so beneficial and the way Charlotte opens up her home to families every weekend shows that she will do anything for her puppies. The training that Daisy had was amazing and when she came home as well as knowing us she knew her name and could sit come and stay as well as being able to walk on her lead. Charlotte had bathed her, got her used to noises, been driven in the car, sleeping in a crate as well as all the training. I can’t say how much we love our puppy she’s got the most wonderful temperament I have never know such a sweet puppy! She’s the perfect balance of playful and calm. I firmly believe that her personality is down to the nurturing that Charlotte gave in those early weeks. She has brought so much joy and happiness to our lives over the last 12months she’s so loving and calm and fits into everything that we do! Everywhere we go people stop to say how beautiful she is and what a lovely personality! She rolls on her back wherever we go looking for a tummy tickle from humans or other dogs, this is definitely inherited from Charlotte. You will never find another breeder that gives as much love and commitment to their puppies as Charlotte, this is also extended to their families! Charlotte is always there to answer any questions, I have often messaged Charlotte with minor concerns and she’s always taken time to help. Charlotte has become a friend for life x
We had researched breeders for almost 3 years and Lottie was top of our list. We had promised our daughters that this year we would make the commitment to getting a dog.
We had been waiting to see if Lottie would have any litters and luckily everything fell into place. Our puppy was the last to be chosen from a Bichonpoo litter and he was just perfect. We couldn’t wait for a boy to join our family of mainly girls!
We made a commitment to Lotties 4 week plan and loved seeing our puppy learn essential skills whilst he stayed with his mum. Lottie was so thorough in everything she did and lots of 121 training with our puppy when he needed it.
We can’t thank Lottie enough – we would highly recommend and couldn’t be happier with our gorgeous boy
Our experience of Lottie is very similar to all the other reviews but worth detailing so that people can make informed decisions regarding choosing Lottie as their breeder. We applied to be considered as puppy parents for one of her bichonpoo litter. Luckily we met all of the criteria necessary which lead to a telephone “interview ” with Lottie. With Lottie happy that we were a fit for one of her puppies we made arrangements to visit and choose our puppy (we were 4th in line for a litter of 5). As well as choosing our beautiful puppy that first visit included paying a deposit, seeing mammy Maya with the litter and feeding the puppies, seeing a photo of the daddy and evidence of the pedigree of each parent. We choose a beautiful blanket knitted by Lottie herself which we had to bring home and wear to get our “scent” on so that it could be used for part of the bonding going forward. We were also supplied with some books on puppy training and the bichon poo breed. The main take away from that first day was how absolutely devoted Lottie is to all her dogs (and her guard cats!!), and how important it is to her to match the right families with her puppies. We then had to visit once a week for bonding and training for the next 4 weeks which in all honesty was a commitment for us as it was over 2 hours drive each way from us, but it was absolutely more than worth it. We feel that it gave us such a sound start to our life with our puppy. We bonded while learning to train puppy to sit, then harness training with sit, come and wait and finally walk on the leash. During these weeks we also had regular updates via Instagram and personal videos of puppy’s first bath and blow dry. The day we collected our new family member we were sent home with a goodie bag that included our blanket, puppy pads, toys, soap and a big bag of puppy food. Puppy slept the majority of the drive home and settled in quickly. However her first night was not so easy…..but Lottie was available to help us and guide us through the issues. We have now had our puppy for over 5 weeks and she has had her second set of vaccinations and it is worth mentioning that our vet was impressed that Lottie had arranged the Lepto 4 jabs because breeders often only offer the lepto 2 jabs and this unfortunately means that extra jabs are needed. Also we have been to puppy training classes here locally and it was very obvious that our puppy had a head start. (Not that I am biased or anything but she was a star!).We have been blessed with our beautiful puppy but equally blessed that her breeder was her auntie Lottie.
We chose Lottie because of the 4 week sessions she organises. Charlotte knew that is was valuable for the puppies and for the families. Charlotte was a clear and helpful breeder, we felt reassured to get our puppy from her. Our puppy was well trained and slept well in his crate from the off.
After two years of researching breeds and breeders we finally found Charlotte and we are so thankful that we did! We can only echo the same feedback as the other lucky owners on this review page. We are so grateful to Charlotte for our absolutely scrumptious boy Ozzy. Charlotte’s knowledge, dedication, communication, genuine love and care is amazing, if only all breeders were like her! Thank you Charlotte for all of your hard work, opening your home to us for our bonding sessions (which were absolutely invaluable) and our healthy, well adjusted, beautiful natured boy.
P.S We miss you! 🙂
There is a reason why Charlotte has been named as one of the top breeders in the UK. We spent many months looking into breeders as we have very strong views on unscrupulous ‘breeders’ who saw Covid as an opportunity to make a quick buck without the know how or care for their puppies. Charlotte very quickly rose to the top of our list and it was the best decision we made. From the very first phone call and subsequent meeting, it was very clear how much her babies meant to her. At the very first meeting when we met our new little family member, she talked through the parents history and medical records and we got to see mum interacting with her pups. After that initial meeting, we were invited to her home every Sunday to bond with the wee fella and ask any questions. Charlotte prepares the puppies for their new homes with crate training, traffic and firework noises etc, bath time, trips in the car ready for their journey home, basic sit commands and lead training. These visits were not only enjoyable but also meant that little Kobe settled with us from day 1. As a new fur mum, I contacted Charlotte for advice and she was more than happy to help. When you bring puppy home, Charlotte is still there to help which is a great comfort. I feel honoured and lucky that Charlotte felt us suitable new parents. These babies mean the world to her. I cannot recommend Charlotte enough. My advice to anyone looking for a wee puppy, please do your homework. What is their practice before and after picking up your puppy. Are they properly vaccinated, are their early weeks spent within a family home, are the parents fully health checked? There are so many things I can add to this list, all of which Charlotte does. Another really sweet gesture is the hand knitted blanket which Charlotte makes. You bring the blanket home to collect the smells of your home and then you return it on the next visit for the puppy to cuddle. This then forms part of the going home pack with food, puppy pads, treats, toys and obviously the necessary puppy paperwork. Thank you Charlotte. Our home is now rather messy with balls and sqeaky toys everywhere but Kobe has made our family complete. He has added so much joy and laughter to our home and I feel this is due to the love, care and attention you gave him from day 1 xx
Our ‘Lottie’s Journey’ has been one of the most wonderful experiences we have had as a family. After much research into breeds and breeders (and discounting all those that rang alarm bells) we were delighted to find that Lotties Cavapoos had the values we were looking for and not too far from home. And even more thrilled when we were selected as a suitable family for one of her precious puppies. Charlotte has the highest standards of care for mums and puppies and is very thorough in her selection criteria, which is reassuring and a strong indicator of a caring and responsible breeder. Charlotte opened her home to our family of 4, once a week for 5 weeks, which is just an incredible commitment to giving the puppies and families the best start in life together. I still haven’t found another dog owner who had this experience with a breeder. Our sons got along with Charlotte straight away and she made them feel at ease and confident. Charlotte’s puppies are so well socialised, they are used to other animals, people, noises, bathing and grooming, car journeys, crate trained and trained in basic cues – solid foundations for coming home to a new family. We feel so blessed to have met Charlotte, she is everything we could have hoped for in a breeder and so much more. ‘Mummy Charlotte’ gave our puppy the very best start in life and everything we learnt from her, equipped us to be the best forever family we could be.
Charlottes dedication, commitment, hard work and love she has for all her animals is to be commended. From the moment her puppies are born they are very well looked after and our puppy journey has been a wonderful experience. Charlotte puts in place a fantastic socialisation program for each family from weeks 4-8. The first visit we went through the parents paperwork, health certificates and chose our puppy. Charlotte let us pick one of her knitted blankets to take home and return the following week with our smell on. Over the five weeks Charlotte shared with us videos of our chosen puppy being taught the sit, stay and come commands as well as loose lead walking. It was a wonderful experience to join in and participate in person, all of the learning sessions each week. We were also impressed how quickly Charlotte had taught them to go to the toilet on a puppy pad too. My daughter absolutely loved bonding with Charlotte and her puppy and it was a joy to video and watch. Charlotte was so kind and patient with my daughter who absolutely adored her. Charlotte gives the puppies a bath and blow dry before they come home to us, takes them out in the car and plays different sounds into her house. They are handled and groomed daily by all of her wonderful family too. When we took Ruby home we were very confident because of all the help we had got along the way. Charlotte is there for us 24/7, checks in on Ruby and gives us lots of advice which we are very grateful for, nothing is ever too much trouble. She also crate trains her puppies which meant Ruby settled instantly on her first night. Ruby is healthy, happy, calm and a joy to be around thanks to Charlotte. She is the best breeder in the UK and we feel very blessed we got to be parents to one of her puppies. Thank you for the parting gifts and food for Ruby and the Easter egg you bought for our daughter too. You are a wonderful person.
We were luckily enough to get on Charlotte’s waiting list in 2021 and in December 2021 Paris had a litter of 3 boys and 3 girls. We had told Charlotte we wanted a boy which she noted down so when Paris had the litter we were set to having one of the 3 boys. In January 2022, Charlotte welcomed us into her home to meet the litter & mother and this when we got to pick our pup and to name our little boy Vinnie. Throughout the whole process Charlotte was there to answer any questions we had and to keep us informed of training progress, weight checks etc. Every weekend we got to spend time with Vinnie to bond with him and to help train him to sit, wait, come & lead training. When we got to take Vinnie home, he already knew who we were and he settled in pretty well. Now as a 20 week pup, he is happy healthy and doing very well in training. Charlotte has remained in touch and has been there to answer any questions we’ve had. Vinnie is very well mannered and good-natured, we do believe this is down to how Charlotte raises the puppies in a loving family environment home along with her touch techniques. We couldn’t recommend Charlotte enough! Thank you!
Charlotte is an amazing breeder and the start that she gives to her little pups is second to none. Visiting Charlotte for her weekly sessions and getting to know our puppy meant that she adjusted to our family and her new environment incredibly quickly.
Thank you for everything!
We were so lucky to get our gorgeous puppy Tusker from Charlotte. Having been let down by a previous breeder, I discovered Charlotte and we struck up a conversation by email. The timing was just right to be put on the list for Paris’s litter.
She sent us lots of pupdates from the initial scan through to the first photos of the puppies.
One of the reasons why I loved Charlotte as a breeder was that we got to attend bonding sessions every week with our wee puppy. As he got to know us, we got to know him – especially as we are first time dog owners so were quite nervous and had lots of questions! Nothing is too much trouble for Charlotte when it comes to her puppies. They are already taught so many things that by the time they come home they are used to a lot of the household noises . The car ride home after picking Tusker up was not an issue as Charlotte had already taken them out in a car so they could used to it. Tusker slept well the first night and no problems since.
I contacted her after we got him home about some feeding issues and she couldn’t have been more helpful or more accurate in diagnosing the problem. Tusker is a fast learner and had a great nature which is down to how he was raised for the first 8 weeks of his life. Charlotte is such a lovely lady and very passionate about what she does. I cannot recommend her highly enough and wish her all the best. To any future puppy parents, consider yourself lucky to get one from Charlotte.
Almost a year after I first made contact with Charlotte, we brought home our beautiful Daisy. Having decided that the Cavapoo was the breed for us, we did a great deal of research into breeders and Charlotte’s name kept coming up as a top recommendation. So – after happily answering all the questions she asked to assess our suitability – when Charlotte contacted me to offer us a place on Paris’s litter we were absolutely delighted.
We are first time dog owners and were so impressed and reassured by the support and advice Charlotte gives her families. She clearly cares passionately about the welfare of her puppies and everything she does is focused on preparing the puppies and owners for a happy life together. The bonding and training sessions from 5 to 8 weeks were brilliant; we learned so much and were able to really establish a connection with our little Daisy. We felt it was a real privilege to be able to spend time with our growing puppy in those early weeks and we loved every minute.
Daisy is an absolute treasure: content; playful; clever and beautiful. We know Charlotte is there for us if we have queries or need advice and we are so grateful to her for letting us have one of her wonderful babies.
We got our puppy Luna from Charlotte in December, having never had a dog before we felt we had really found someone special with Charlotte. On our first meeting, after we had chosen Luna, Charlotte went through all the paperwork and health history of the parents which reassured us we were buying a healthy puppy. A really nice touch was choosing a hand made blanket for Luna which we took home for a week to cover it with our smells and then took back the next week, this is still Lunas comfort blanket and she sleeps with it every night. Being able to visit every weekend was fantastic as it gave us a chance to bond with Luna and as new puppy owners a chance to ask lots of questions as well. The sessions were great we played with her and in the later weeks had a go walking her on a lead around the lounge. When we came to take her home she happily came with us and because she had already been out in a car ( a part of Charlottes socialisation programme) she was quite content. Our first night was fine , we made her a den in a crate and she went in and slept all night. Having spoken to others and their experience of stressed nervous puppies, we felt this was all down to Charlottes method in allowing the puppies to bond with their parents before taking them home, rather than just pick up the puppy at 8 weeks only having seen her once. Luna is very well socialised, not afraid of anything and even follows me when I hoover !! Charlotte has a fantastic programme over the 8 weeks, gradually introducing the puppies to various noises, having a wash and blow dry, walking on a lead , getting used to various home sounds which has resulted in a very confident puppy. Seeing Charlotte with the puppies it is wonderful to see how much she loves and cares for them all, she has given us a truly wonderful loving dog and I wouldn’t be without her now. She really is a lovely happy puppy.
I thought that our weekly visits to bond with Luna were normal when buying a puppy but now realise this isn’t, it is something very special that Charlotte takes upon herself, opening up her home every weekend. Also giving us a chance to see how much she loves and cares for them and what a fantastic start to life she gives to all of her new puppies. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommended her and her 5 star award is thoroughly well deserved. Thank you Charlotte for giving us such a bundle of love .
When I started researching cavapoo breeders, Lottie’s name was one of the first to come up and I began following her on Instagram. Over a year later, I saw that she was looking for two families for a litter – and I got in contact immediately. After a telephone chat where Lottie checked that I ticked her criteria (working from home, has a garden et al) and I realised very quickly what a caring breeder she was, I met Crumpet a few weeks later. And I honestly can’t imagine another breeder who puts so much time, energy and love into her puppies.
They all grow up in a huge pen in the dining room, and Lottie goes above and beyond, from playing sounds of traffic and taking them out in the car on the school run to giving them their first bath. The result is that Crumpet isn’t fazed by much at all, whether its strange loud noises or being brushed. What really makes Lottie special though, are the weekly socialisation sessions: by the time Crumpet came home she was very happy sitting on my lap and knew the basic sit/stay/ walking on the lead commands which Lottie had taught her (and I practised on my visits). Lottie stays in touch afterwards too, and was hugely helpful when Crumpet struggled to settle on her first few nights – and I know that her support will be there again if I need it. I feel so incredibly lucky to have found Lottie, who gives all her puppies the best start in life possible.

It was the easiest decision I have ever made to come to Charlotte as a breeder. Our little Roo is just perfect and this is completely a result of being bred and bought up by Charlotte for the first 8 weeks of his life. He is the perfect combination of calm and relaxed and playful and cheeky.
Something that makes Charlotte unique is her socialisation programme and weekly sessions with new owners and their puppy. Roo left happily with us having got to know us over the previous 4 weeks and slept through the first night with no problems at all. Not only that but he has already learnt how to sit and walk nicely on his lead, something that takes other puppies much longer to get the hang of.
It’s clear from the first phone call that Charlotte cares deeply for all of her litters and loves them as if they were her own. She goes above and beyond to make sure that all of her puppies are in perfect health and ready to go out in the world comfortably socialised and confident. She is also just on the other end of the phone for any questions or help you may need, even after we bought Roo home, and is invested in all of her puppies lives even beyond when they leave for their forever homes. She truly cares for every puppy she raises and guides every new family with dos and don’ts along the way. She is a fount of knowledge for everything puppy and breeding.
I cannot recommend Charlotte highly enough to anyone looking for a perfect pup. Roo is the best thing that has ever happened to me and the entire experience has been made comfortable and easy all because of Charlotte. She truly is one of the best breeders in the country and her care and dedication is second to none.
Thank you so much Charlotte for allowing me to be a part of your puppy family with Roo, you have made it a wonderful experience and I can’t put into words how grateful I am!
We can’t thank Charlotte enough for being the most amazing Mum to her litters. She goes beyond the call of a breeder to smother them with love to set them up with the families they are going to in the best possible way for the good of the puppies and the new owners.
The litter we got our puppy from was the most relaxed and happy playful fun litter I have ever seen and the mum was clearly so comfortable and happy in the environment Charlotte created for her to bring her pups into the world.
“Thorough” isn’t a strong enough word to describe the way Charlotte handles the paperwork and advice side of the process. Receiving a day by day timetable of all the things your puppy has done in the first 8 weeks of its life is so lovely to go back and look through.
I cant imagine a single thing that Charlotte could have done differently to make the whole process smoother or more enjoyable for us to welcome a new puppy to our family and the bond she has with the puppies is so warming to see. The love and care she has for them, knowing they will be leaving her for their forever homes in a matter of weeks, is a privilege to witness. The dedication to her “job” is unreal. Clearly this is no ordinary “job” as far as she is concerned.
The onward support she has offered to us is so comforting to know that she is just a phone call away to help if we ever needed it.
Simply put, there is no one else I would be happy to recommend to anyone who was thinking of getting a new puppy.
Having only one child and having grown up with with a little dog we knew we would be completing our family with a puppy. The day came when we, as a family, were ready and I started my research. As soon as I came across Lotties Cavapoos (as it was called before the gorgeous Maya arrived in their family) I knew I needed to look no further. I’d found our breeder and was prepared for a long wait.
The comments on this page from Kristy and Lynn really do show how amazing Charlotte and her family were with our whole early experience (our Binky is from the same Litter) and how they went over and above during Covid times.
I wanted to talk a little about our first year with our girl. She really has completed our family and the bond she has with our 8 year old especially melts my heart daily. She is the most loving little dog I have ever known, weather she is curled up on our sons back whilst he plays a game on his ipad, lying on my husbands pillow with her head on his or running around with her doggie best friend Buddy who lives next door. I have never heard her growl in anger or snap and even when she is playing with us, if our fingers accidently end up in our mouth she starts kissing them instead of play biting!
The next challenge will be the Christmas tree going up!! Whilst she loves a twig or two from the garden I’m crossing everything that she will leave the fake one alone. I could be asking too much haha.
I firmly believe that Binky is they way she is because of the wonderful start she got with Charlotte and her family. It really is so so important to find a breeder who loves all her puppies as if she was going to keep them all.
Charlotte thank you for trusting our family with one of your babies.
Leo is our first ever dog and I did lots of research on which breed we should choose and then on breeders. I followed several on Instagram for a long time, and it became clear that some were breeding puppies at an alarming rate and we discounted those. Charlotte though, stood out as someone who cares so much for her dogs and the puppies she breeds, and we were prepared to wait as long as it took and felt so lucky and excited when she offered us a space. I should add here that when there was a puppy for us my husband broke his leg – I didn’t understand at the time how right Charlotte was when she asked us to wait for the next litter. I was devastated at the time, but having brought Leo home I now understand why she said we couldn’t cope with a broken leg and a puppy!
Unfortunately when our time came we were in Covid lockdown, but Charlotte, along with her lovely daughter, couldn’t have done more to give Leo the opportunity to get to know us via video calls.
Charlotte does so much work with her puppies before they come home – Leo knew his name and could sit, use puppy pads, had been bathed, ridden in the car, in a sling and on lead.
He was a bit car sick on the way home (and he’s still not a big fan of the car, although he never complains) but he made himself at home immediately. He cried a bit the first couple of nights, but soon got used to his new routine and ten months on he sleeps beautifully in his crate downstairs. He has a beautiful nature, loves everyone and doesn’t have an aggressive bone in his body.
I can’t speak highly enough of Lottie’s Cavapoos and Cavachons and would definitely recommend them. Charlotte continues to follow the pups’ progress and is there for advice always.
When I started researching the best way to bring a puppy into our family, I found Charlotte’s website and saw her wonderful page on Social Media. I started following her and devoured all of the fantastic information on her website. The more I looked into finding our furever pup, the more I realised how hard it is to find a breeder that you trust and that cares for the welfare of their animals more than anything else and ensuring they are matched to a family that will care for them and give them the best life.
I really liked the fact that Charlotte asks for families to come forward at the time of each litter and really took an interest in our family setup to ensure the puppy would be the best fit for us. Never, did I dream that she would pick us to be the lucky pup-parents and I’m forever grateful that we now have our gorgeous boy.
From the moment Charlotte chose us, she included us and kept us informed of everything we needed to know from the health checks etc. I was so excited and couldn’t believe it when the puppies were finally here.
The only slight downside for us, was we were in full lockdown and so we were not able to visit the puppies in person until we collected them. However, in true Charlotte style she went above and beyond to ensure we were able to spend time with the puppies every week over video call (this is not an easy thing with puppies, they’re never in the right place at the right time).
The calls each week gave us a chance for the puppy to hear our voices and for Charlotte to be able to show us how to pick them up correctly and for Charlotte’s daughter to shower them with love and kisses.
Charlotte asked us to send a blanket to her with our scent on and only our puppy spent time with that blanket whilst listening to recordings of our voices. Charlotte could not have done more, during a rather difficult time.
When the day arrived to go and pick up boy up, Charlotte was so lovely. She was really concerned as obviously Ernie hadn’t had a chance to get to know us so he was a little wary and this is not what Charlotte was used to. However, as soon as we left he snuggled into me in the car and has been an absolute joy ever since. I cannot remember life without him. He is such a lovely boy even when he’s on his sock stealing missions!
Charlotte stayed on hand as much as we needed for advice and I know I could always contact her if I had any concerns.
I can’t recommend Charlotte highly enough and hope that we will be lucky enough to be chosen by her again at some point in the future so Ernie can have a partner in sock stealing crime!!!
The experience of buying a puppy from Charlotte was pure joy from start to finish. It was incredibly important to me to find a breeder who was thorough, knowledgeable and most importantly who put the needs and happiness of her dogs and her puppies above all else. The moment I spoke to Charlotte I knew I had found the breeder I had spent so many years searching for.
Charlotte ensures that she does all of the health testing and paperwork to absolute gold standard, but not only that – she also educates her families about exactly what they should be expecting, looking out for and asking, every step of the way.
Another reason I felt so incredibly excited to have found Charlotte is her ongoing commitment to further educating herself on the welfare of dogs and pups. The advice and guidance I got from Charlotte on calming and comforting our pup; from sling wearing to massaging to the calm soothing noises she makes have made such a positive difference to our pup and us.
As part of Charlotte’s programme we visited our little pup baby every week; bonding, being lucky enough to witness her first chapter of puppyhood and slowly building our confidence with being pup owners. This was an experience our whole family will always treasure. When we picked our Bibi up to take her home with us, we were prepared and ready, we had already bonded with her and – vitally – Bibi knew us, felt confident and safe with us, and was completely happy and contended with us taking her home. There was not an unhappy whine, she just nuzzled into us, enjoying snuggles and love and confidently explored her new surroundings. I know that Bibi having such a happy transition into our home was entirely thanks to Charlotte and the time, energy and love that she put into raising her and ensuring that Bibi had already bonded with us.
In the months since we picked our pup up Charlotte has always been a mere text or phone call away – she loves her pups and she truly cares for all of her families – and is always happy to offer thoughts or advice when us new puppy parents become unsure 🙂 Our pup is a happy, confident, incredibly loving little sweetheart and we could not imagine life without her – and I couldn’t have imagined her coming from anyone but Charlotte.
We will always be so grateful Charlotte. You welcomed us into your home and into your beautiful way of raising happy, healthy pups and in doing so you changed our lives forever. Thank you ❤️
I met Charlotte earlier this year after first getting in touch at the end of November last year.?
I had lost our cocker spaniel Evie last summer? and having had dogs for 30 years I didn’t think I could go through losing another one. My vet knew better he said see you soon and by the end of the year I knew our home was missing a wet nose and that welcome at the door when you walk through it.?
I researched online and came across lotties Cavapoos and got in touch with Charlotte in November and then met her at the beginning of the year and got to meet Susies litter who were all so beautiful.???? I decided there and then that Charlotte was the breeder for me and I knew that my research online had brought me to the right person.?
I loved reading all about her family and how she became a breeder, it was very touching. The knowledge and care that she gives to her girls and puppies is outstanding. From 4 weeks she involves the families and invites you into her home for the next 4 weeks so that your puppy gets to know you and you can also grow in confidence in handling your new baby.?
The puppies are born in the family home and very much loved and looked after.
Charlotte knits beautiful blankets for all the puppies and we chose some to take home and we had to bring one back on week 2 after having it draped over each of us all week ? so that the puppy got used to our smells.
So much goes into those 4 weeks Charlotte gets them used to different sounds and introduces a crate. She introduces them to a harness and when we got to week 3 we were walking round the room with Daisy on the lead and harness and doing sits with some chicken treats.?
Since coming home she has grown in confidence and settled very quickly into her new surroundings. She loves her safe place (her crate)and is happy playing in her playpen. She sleeps through the night and is housetrained letting us know by tapping on the door when she wants to go out.
Even though it’s been difficult to meet as many people as we would have liked because of Covid of the family and friends we have been able to meet she is very relaxed and happy. ?
I put all this down to the dedication and hard work that Charlotte put in.
During Covid there has been much in the news (Last night on the one show) about how some breeders have increased there prices after agreeing a price with buyers, and how some families have been left heartbroken when there puppy was sold to someone else willing to pay the higher price. Charlotte kept to the price given to us from the start which shows her trustworthiness.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Charlotte if you are wanting a puppy in the future as you will get so much more and she is always there to help you.
Many thanks Charlotte for our beautiful girl! Rob and Jan Steel xx??
Our adorable Archie joined our family just over 6 weeks ago and we can honestly say it’s been the best experience ever!
We’d read rave reviews about Charlotte so when she contacted us about Archie we were over the moon.
From the moment we met her and her delightful family when Archie was 4 weeks old, she provided us with plenty of helpful advice and information on a range of issues about owning a cavapoo. As first-time dog owners this was invaluable!
We visited Archie every week watching him play with his brother and sister and each time noticing the genuine love and care Charlotte displayed for the puppies. We never felt rushed and couldn’t wait for the next visit to come round.
During these visits Charlotte also provided us with all the important documents relating to Archie’s parentage and health checks.
One of the things that impressed us most was how she went the “extra mile” over a typical breeder. She gave us a beautiful hand-knitted blanket, taught Archie to “sit” and “come” and even took videos of his first bath and hair drying experience to help us.
The day we collected Archie, we went through all the necessary paperwork, including a contract, vaccination records and microchipping documents. Charlotte also gave us a delightful bag of goodies including a beautiful canvas print of Archie as a baby pup.
On Charlotte’s advice we are crating Archie and it’s working really well. We’ve had a few little house training accidents but Archie now lets us know when he needs to go out to do his business.
Now he’s fully vaccinated, we’re loving getting out and about with our little boy, enjoying riverside walks and fun in the local park, socialising with other dogs and their owners.
We’re thrilled how well Archie is doing and it’s all down to Charlotte giving him such a brilliant start to life. We can’t thank her enough. Xxxx
We took home our darling Merlin just over 4 weeks ago, he is now 12 weeks and 5 days. I cannot recommend Lotties Cavapoos highly enough. Our first experience of trying to buy a puppy was not a positive one and had it not been for the amazing information and videos that Charlotte shares so generously our story could have been very different. We had to make the very difficult decision to walk away from a breeder we found to be unethical but our story has ended so well and we are so happy and well supported with Charlotte as a breeder. From the start of the journey she was nothing but helpful and informative, open and honest with a real passion for educating us about how important it is to know everything about the puppy and to have all the necessary documents about the puppy’s parents. We visited Merlin a total of 5 times before we took him home – we live in London and so this meant a big commitment on our behalf, but it was the most incredibly valuable experience. We didn’t know anything about having a puppy and we learned so much that when we took Merlin home we felt really confident. The first visit we were allowed to spend as long as we liked, with no pressure, to choose our pup. All the paper work was available and Charlotte explained it all to us. We only gave a deposit once we had chosen Merlin. We saw Merlin with Susie (his mummy) and auntie (Lily) and it was the most gorgeous experience giving us such reassurance as to what a happy start Merlin was having in life. Everything was there for us to see, and it was lovely to see the pups genuinely being brought up in the heart of the family. The care they were all being given was such a high standard, everything so hygienic, clean, lots of stimulating toys, the best food and loads of love and care. Charlotte let us pick one of her gorgeous hand knitted blankets to take home to fill with our smells to bring back for Merlin so that he would get to know us! The next 4 visits we experienced all kinds of things with our pup. Watching him play with his siblings, playing and interacting with him ourselves with his toys, learning how to put on his harness and use commands like ‘sit’ and ‘come’. When we came to pick Merlin up we signed a proper puppy contract and took away all the necessary paper work and information including his vet check and vaccination records, he was micro-chipped and best of all knew us so well that we felt so confident taking him. Not only did we have all the documentation but Charlotte sent us on our way with a bag full of Merlin treats, food for the first month, blankets smelling of his family and mother and even a gorgeous canvas print of him as a little pup. We felt very overwhelmed by her generosity. Our journey with Charlotte has not stopped there. She has been such a support with all our questions. However, she also made our journey so easy because from the moment we took Merlin home he slept the night through in his crate due to his crate training with his siblings and used puppy pads (washable!) to do his pees and poops! I think we’ve only had about 2 accidents (due to over-excitement). Its incredible. Merlin arrived familiar with all the noises of family life and when we picked him up he was used to the car (although maybe not a 3 hour journey!) He already enjoyed putting on his harness and would sit and come on command which we have continued so he is really responding to training. He literally jumped into his sling when we took him out as Charlotte had introduced him to this too. We gave him his first bath this evening and due to the fact that Charlotte had done this for us at 8 weeks he was not phased and enjoyed the experience, even the hair drying afterwards (using a really cool doggie hair dryer that Charlotte recommended). I have texted many times to ask little questions and nothing has been too much trouble, Charlotte answering so quickly and calmly. We now can’t imagine life without him! Thank you to Lotties Cavapoos.
I found Charlotte having read a book about Cavapoos that she had contributed to and it seemed from looking at her website and Instagram that she was a very experienced and reputable breeder and this was confirmed when we then spoke on the phone and she told me more about herself and how she ‘does things’.
I was on the list to have a puppy from Charlotte’s summer 2019 litter, but then in the spring, difficult personal circumstances meant it wasn’t going to to be a good time. Charlotte was so understanding and was really kind about me postponing to a later time when I was feeling better. Fast forward to autumn 2019 and Charlotte was ever so positive and welcome to putting me on the next litter.
Florence (now named) and her two brothers were born in early December and at 4 weeks old, Charlotte and her lovely family welcomed me into her home every week – initially to meet and pick my puppy from the litter and then a further 4 visits for socialisation and playtime and opportunities to bond with my puppy and ask (lots !) of questions. All of this was SO much better ( and confidence building – for me and puppy) than the practices of some of the other breeders I had come across who require a deposit to be on the list, to pick your puppy from photographs, then wanted another huge deposit, offered no socialisation meetings and then you wouldn’t meet your puppy till take home day.
The experience with Charlotte was quite the opposite, and it was clear from my visits that the puppies were in a lovely family home, with their mother and aunt, and two cats, and were being well taken care of. Charlotte also starts the training straight away and sends messages and pictures to you AND shows updates on training and progress on her Instagram page. Charlotte starts potty training, ‘sit’ and ‘come’ as well as crate, harness and lead training.
She sends you home with all the relevant documentation for your puppy ( heritage, health, chip, and insurance ) and so much info and all the Q&A paperwork you could need. PLUS two of her hand knitted blankets. (One of which she gives you to take away on week one, so you can sleep with it then bring it back and the puppy can then smell your scent in between visits)
She’s thought of everything and takes so much care with the puppies and with the families her puppies go to. She also makes clear that she will be on hand on the phone if you have ANY question or worries. I needed to take her up on that a few times!
Thanks to Charlotte –
On take home day, Florence was totally calm & fine in the car on the way home and has settled in so well. From night 1 she has slept from 10.30pm to 6am on her crate with NO barking or crying.
From day 2 she has been meeting new people nearly every day, and loves it!
On day 3 she had to come out with me to work and after a some initial uncertainty, she was happy on the tube and has been ever since.
On day 4 she had her first visit to the pub and was completely chilled, just slept on my lap.
From last week she has been socialising with other ( inoculated dogs ) and has been confident and playful.
The trainer I have coming once a week has commented that she has never worked with such a well adjusted puppy with such a lovely temperament – she now wants one of Charlotte’s puppies!
Florence is now 12 weeks old (I’ve had her a month now) and as I type she’s amusing herself playing in her playpen. She’s such a lovely gorgeous girl! Everyone who meets her adores her and says how lovely and calm she is. (Of course she does have the odd half hour very day when she goes a bit bonkers but it’s amusing more than anything else)
Oh, and she is well on the way to being housetrained, having learnt to ring bells attached to the back door to go out.
ALL of the above I put to down to Charlotte’s knowledge, experience, care, love and commitment.
Cannot recommend enough!
Thank you Charlotte. Xx
Watching the videos of Charlotte training the latest pups makes me feel quite nostalgic for how small our 8 month old Cavapoo from her, Barney, once was. It also reminds me what a great choice of breeder she was – her process is intense and requires weekly trips to Southampton but it means you get to bring home an incredibly well balanced and already well trained puppy who, crucially, knows you and your family already so is spared some (most?) of the trauma of changing homes. There is nothing Charlotte wouldn’t do for her puppies, from socialising them to harnesses and slings to rides in the car – anything to help them settle smoothly and calmly into their new lives. I found looking for a Cavapoo breeder incredibly difficult and had a narrow escape from the first breeder I visited. I cannot recommend Charlotte highly enough – you need have no concerns about getting your puppy from her.
Dear Charlotte, I just want to say your page was a pleasure to read and I now know a lot more about cavapoo’s and breeders, ive been looking for a while now for a cavapoo baby but unfortunately not very successful, unfortunately you are to far away, I would like to thank you for all the help ive learnt from your advice, wendy
We collected our handsome Cavapoo from Charlotte a month ago and we feel that we could not have made a better choice than to choose Charlotte as the breeder we purchased our puppy from. We spent a long time researching the breed and finding a suitable registered breeder that we were happy to purchase our pup from, Charlotte doesn’t have a waiting list until the pregnancy is confirmed and doesn’t ask for a deposit to be included on this list. Before Charlotte accepted us as one of the lucky families for this litter she spent time finding out about us and our setup to ensure we were the right people for her pups. As Charlotte only has one litter at a time she is able to give 100% to care for and develop the pups ready for them to go to their families. Most importantly Charlotte is always available to answer any questions or queries that you have regarding your puppy and doesn’t just ship them out and forget about them
We visited our pup every week from 4 weeks old so we were able to bond with him and watch his development personally. We spent time watching his interaction with Charlotte and her family and ourselves as well as his brothers and sister so we knew we were getting a confident little boy that was well adjusted to us from the moment we brought him home.
Before we collected him he was already crate trained, toilet training had been started, he had a good knowledge of basic commands, was used to travelling in a car, he was also used to being groomed and bathed. Charlotte had also spent time desensitising the litter to lots of different noises which proved to be a godsend as the first night in our home we had thunderstorms and he wasn’t affected at all and slept through the night from the first night.
Charlotte spent time going through all of the health testing of our boy parents and further back with us and ensured that he had a full health check, was micro chipped and had his 1st vaccinations before he was brought home and gave us all the documentation to take home.
Shelby truly is a gorgeous confident and loving little boy that asks for nothing but cuddles ( as this is being written he is curled up on my lap asleep) and maybe a liver treat occasionally and would recommend anyone that is looking for a cavapoo to consider buying from Charlotte.
We recently brought home our gorgeous boy Cavapoo from Charlotte. We did a lot of research and feel we couldn’t have found a better breeder. Charlotte cares so much about her puppies and their parents and only ever has one litter at time which means she dedicates her full attention to mum and puppies. We were able to visit our puppy in Charlotte’s home every week so that we got to know each other and this has been crucial to him settling in so well. Before he came to us, he was already crate trained, able to follow basic commands, travel in a car, wear his harness, have a bath, be well on his way to being toilet trained and was well socialised in a clean, loving home and more. He has a lovely nature and is beautiful and healthy. Importantly, our puppy and its parents came with all the health tests and documentation and from way back before too. There are a lot of breeders out there that have more than one litter at a time, ask for money to go on a list or move up a list, don’t have the health tests and genuine documentation or don’t question who is buying their puppies and we wouldn’t have gone near any of them no matter how much we wanted a Cavapoo. Charlotte has provided us with so much valuable information and is always available should we need to ask her advice on anything. Charlotte works so hard and we couldn’t have been happier with everything she has done. We have a wonderful Cavapoo! Thank you Charlotte.
We brought Molly home from Charlotte in July 2019 and we’ve been delighted with what a confident and outgoing puppy she is thanks to Charlotte’s dedicated socialisation of Molly and her siblings. She is now twelve weeks and loves people, is extremely affectionate and clearly very intelligent. We’re loving having her in our family.
I did a lot of research before choosing a breeder and Charlotte is streets ahead of the others I contacted and visited. All her puppies are very well looked after and dearly loved. We are delighted with Monty who is now 11 weeks old and has made himself very much at home. He was already crate trained and he has slept through without any issue since the day he came to us. Charlotte actively encourages you to go and visit weekly before the pups are ready to come home and this was invaluable – as was her advice and support and patience with our endless questions!!
What a fantastic breeder! Great communication from Charlotte once she had chosen us to be parents of one of her fur baby Cavapoos. Fortunately we lived close enough to visit each weekend prior to picking up our beautiful bundle of fluff; Charlotte & her family helped so much with our young children to meet, start to bond & grow confidence with the puppy.
Puppy is very happy, loving & well socialised both with people & general household noises.
Charlotte is very supportive both before with updates right through to shopping lists and after we had brought puppy home & settling in. Couldn’t ask for any better, many thanks.
We really could not have hoped for more in our incredible Cavapoo breeder, Charlotte.
When we look at Balfour (our 11-week old Cavapoo) now – it is clear how well he was looked after from the moment he was born. He is a calm, sweet-natured and friendly member of our family. He is intelligent and healthy and obviously the product of a loving and caring breeder.
Charlotte impressed us from the very beginning by the lengths she went to ensure that we would be suitable dog-owners and new parents to one of her puppies. Her eagle-eyed interviewing gave us confidence that she cared deeply about the puppies’ welfare; for the rest of their lives. When we came to visit, we could see Balfour’s mum Rosiella, taking wonderful care of her litter in a clean and safe environment. The puppies were being well socialised with lots of visitors and different sounds – we know that’s why Balfour is so relaxed around new people and experiences now.
Charlotte also took us through the various veterinary and genetic testing that Balfour’s parents had undergone to check that their litters would be healthy. She explained all the paperwork including how the chipping system works.
Most importantly, Charlotte has been a huge support to us as first-time dog owners. She is always available for advice and we know she always will!
Thank you Charlotte xx
From Kath and Max, ourTed is the most amazing little boy, I don’t know how we lived without him. Not only is he amazingly clever, but his nature is so kind and loving, he is the best of the best. We just love him to bits ???
Poppy was one of 4 beautiful puppy’s from Charlottes 1st F1b litter in Jan 16.
I was chatting to Charlotte about 8 months before that and she is so polite and professional throughout the whole process.
When visiting Charlotte, her family, mum and pups Charlotte was very knowledgable and supportive. She opened her home so we could visit anytime we wanted.
We have now had Poppy just over 2 months and from day one she fitted in – it was like she had been living with us for ages. She is adorable, so well natured and is amazing with our 2 year daughter (which was something I wanted to get right when looking for a breeder and breed). They are the best of friends and when out in the park or at home poppy doesn’t leave her side. Poppy has been super easy to train abd loves to learn – she’s so clever 🙂 . We absolutely love her and we are very lucky to have her in our lives. Thank you for being such an amazing breeder and producing such beautiful pups.
We picked up Lucy at 8 weeks old and is now 4 months. Charlotte is an amazing breeder and the love and care she gives her puppies shows. Lucy is a beautifully natured dog, well socialised and settled into our family within the day of bringing her home. She is a secure dog and delightful. It’s a testament to the way Charlotte raises her pups. She made plenty of time for us to choose and then let us visit Lucy several times before collection. She is an ethical, caring and excellent breeder raising the pups in the home in a warm family environment. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.
Charlotte has been fantastic throughout and as we lived locally were able to visit and bond with our little Cookie for a month before bringing him home almost a week ago. Charlotte has been so supportive and helpful I would definitely recommend her to anyone! Thank you for being an amazing breeder, we couldn’t be happier!
We got our Ted from Lottie and we are so glad we did. She is a very careing breeder who really loves her dogs and their puppies. Our little man is so lovely, and we would recommend anyone to go to Lottie for a healthy well adjusted puppy.
We have had our bichonpoo for five weeks now. He is a happy, fun loving and healthy puppy. I cannot recommend the breeder highly enough, who has always been very supportive with any problem you may have. Many thanks Charlotte for little Rupert Dewi.

We have now had our bichonpoo Lola for a week and she has settled into her crate at night really well. She is a half sister to Millie who is 17 months old and the two of them are getting on really well, lots of puppy play with Millie which seems to be great fun and will be great company for one another. I decided to go back to Charlotte when I decided to have a friend for Millie as she is an excellent breeder with a great family who loves and cares for all the puppys. Millie is such a lovely dog with a super temperament and I know Lola will take after her.
Many thanks Charlotte for all the visits to see Lola and advice.xx

We have had our bichonpoo Lola for a week now, she has been very good at night and settled very quickly in her crate. She is a half sister to Millie who is 17 months old who is a lovely friendly dog which is why I have gone back to Charlotte as she is an excellent breeder bringing the pups up in a lovely family environment with lots of love and care. Really glad I have decided to have Lola as Millie and her are making friends and will be really good company as they get older.I would never have gone to any one else as these puppies are so well looked after and Mum Poppy is a happy healthy dog. Thank you Charlotte for both our lovely bichonpoos.xx
After deciding to buy a puppy my friend recommended Charlottes website. Charlotte is a very kind and caring lady and was very thorough with her questions in order to give Mollie the best home. We came away feeling very confident after all of the information we were given. It has been so reassuring to know that Charlotte is at the end of the phone and she has offered much welcome advice. If anyone wants to buy a puppy I would definitely recommend Charlotte. She is very sincere and had much love for what she does.
On recommendation from a dog walker we found Charlotte. As soon as i rang to enquire i knew that we were purchasing from a breeder that knows her stuff. I have had the ‘wool pulled over my eyes’ by a breeder in the past and sold me a puppy that was very poorly and definately the wrong breed but anyhow – Charlotte is great, we got Hugo (bichon-poo) who is such a lovely boy – so healthy and confident, he has fitted in so well with all the family. I would have absolutely no doubts going back to Charlotte as i know how much love and care goes into the pups! I would definately recommend Charlotte.
After loosing our beloved Cavalier last year we researched and decided on a Cavapoo as our next furbaby. We happily came across Charlotte’s site and from reading her guide and previous customer comments knew we had found our perfect breeder. From speaking to Charlotte and meeting her, her family and Furkids her passion and care as a breeder was clear. We welcomed Dexter home on 1st April having already had plenty of time bonding with him thanks to Charlotte encouraging us to visit numerous times from 4 weeks old. I now would not go to any other breeder and would strongly recommend Charlotte to anyone. Thanks to his fantastic start in Charlotte’s home he is well socialised and a very happy boy. Thank you Charlotte for our handsome little Prince xx
We first welcome Buddy into our family in October 2012, one from charlottes cavapoo litter. We were so please that put our name down on her waiting list for another when we decided to have another fur kid. Holly came to us on 1st April. I wouldn’t go to anyone else for a pup!
We purchased a biconpoo puppie called Archie in January. He is our first dog and we were very nervous. Charlotte was amazing and always available if we had any queries. Archie fitted into our family immediately he was and is so social. A real little star. Buying a pup from a family environment really makes a difference as they are so friendly. Thanks Charlotte

We have become the proud owners of a little girl bichonpoo puppy from Poppy and George’s litter and can highly recommend Charlotte as the most wonderful breeder. The whole process was made so easy right from choosing a puppy through to the support she is still giving now that Winnie is living with us. We are absolutely delighted with our gorgeous puppy and feel that Charlotte and her lovely family have become friends. They regularly invited us to visit Winnie so that a strong relationship developed between us and our new puppy. This has made the whole process of bringing her home so easy because she knew us and we knew her. She is a well socialised, healthy, loving and intelligent puppy and I have no doubt at all that this is because of the fantastic care and attention that Charlotte has given to her and all of the furkids she produces. We are so pleased we found you, Charlotte!! xxx
Thank you Charlotte for breeding such a wonderful, happy, healthy, playful, intelligent, cuddly (could say so much more) Bichonpoo. We are totally smitten with our Rosie, she has a lovely temperament and is one of clever Poppy and George’s litter. Having done quite a lot of research we were very pleased to find Charlotte’s informative website and following a telephone conversation with her she lived up to our first impression and could not have been more helpful without any pressure. She and her lovely family of kids and fur kids then welcomed us into their home to meet and chat further, again with no pressure. We met all the family in a happy, homely environment and puppies and dogs were clearly loved and well socialised. Charlotte is very open and full of helpful advice and guidance especially for novice dog owners like ourselves. The reassurance of her being available for contact 24/7 following puppy coming home has given us the confidence that we are doing right by Rosie and she is a bright little bundle of fun thriving happily in our home. We certainly recommend Charlotte and her puppies. Thank you for our Rosie. xx
We bought Freddie from Charlotte in February 2102, her first litter. He is the most adorable dog, super temperament, he is very sociable and loves mixing with other dogs. He loves his cuddles! Wherever we are he is, he has fitted into our family so well. Charlotte was brilliant allowing us to visit him frequently before collecting him. We love him to bits xxx
We have the most adorable puppy called Remy from Annies puppies June 2013. I was very lucky to come across Charlotte last year and was fortunate to be added to Annies waiting list! I could have looked around for other breeders but from my first conversation with Charlotte i knew she was the perfect breeder for us. We have a 15 year old son with Autism who was not keen on us getting a puppy but from when we first went to see the puppies Charlotte was amazing with him. She really encouraged him to get involved and he keeps in contact with Charlotte, updating her how Remy is doing. Everywhere we go,everybody loves Remy and they want her!! She is so confident and friendly. I give Charlottes website out on a daily basis!! A great big thank you to Charlotte and her lovely family for our beautiful Remy xxxx
We have had Maisy for two weeks now (she is from Annie’s June litter). She is a delightful dog who has clearly been given a wonderful start in life by charlotte as her breeder. It is obvious Charlotte cares deeply about her puppies and has a strong sense of responsibility to her role as a breeder. Maisy has been well socialised living in Charlotte’s household and is clearly used to family life. Physically she is in great condition, (we had her double checked by our vet when we collected her) and that’s all due to Charlotte’s attention in those very early days.
We have never had a dog before and Charlotte has been very helpful with our questions and always available if needed.
Charlotte is a fantastic breeder and I would not hesitate in recommending her to others.
We have had Bella for two weeks now from Annies litter, she is a happy and healthy puppy and settled in very well to our household, we are first time dog owners so needed a lot of guidance from Charlotte which she gave to us from the start, I would thoroughly recommend her as a breeder, a lovely and caring person and always there to guide you through the early days.
We were delighted to welcome Dennis and Stan to our family (two puppies from Annie’s litter born June 2013) just under a fortnight ago. They are happy and healthy pups and have settled into our family really well. We would not have any hesitation in recommending Charlotte as a breeder as it is obvious when you speak to her on the phone and meet her face to face that the welfare and happiness of her furkids are her top priority. We were welcomed into the family home and treated as friends, not only by Charlotte but by the rest of her family also. Charlotte is happy to answer any questions that you may have both before and after giving one (or two in our case!) of her puppies a forever home.
I have nothing to say other than praise for Charlotte as a Breeder. We welcomed Milly (one of Annie’s litter from June 2013)into our home a week ago. She has settled virtually immediately and is the calmest, sweetest little thing…Charlotte has done an amazing job starting her off on such a steady footing. I thoroughly recommend her as a Breeder, and she is always on hand after you take one her pups home, just in case you need reassurance which is great too!
Charlotte is an amazing lady who loves her fur kids so much. We feel extremely lucky to have given one of her puppies her forever home. We welcomed Molly home nearly 3 weeks ago and she settled in instantly. We have 5 children and another cavapoo called Chester who is 11 months old. Molly was so well socialised her settling in period was seamless, she slept through the night from the day she came into our home. Noise and the hustle and bustle of our family home did not faze her at all, in fact I think she thrives on it. She adores her companion Chester, who after a few days accepted her and adores her equally. If your chosen to welcome a cavapoo from Charlotte you will be giving a home to not only a beautiful pet but you will also inherit a life long friend, Charlotte.
Charlotte looks after her puppies and dogs o well! we bought Jess from charlotte back in april. My mum had been searching and searching for a long time, then we found charlotte and she seemed like the perfect breeder! she looked after the dogs so well. most of her injections had been taken care of and clearly is very attched to her dogs as it was hard for her to let go but she let us pop round as much as we felt needed to get to know the environment jess had been living in and to be honest our last visit she was ready to come back with us. Jess nearly knew her name by the time we took her home! so i STRONGLY advise you to look into getting a Cavapoo as they are fantastic and if you want a trustworthy breeder charlotte is definitely the perfect breeder if your looking for a perfect puppy !!! Thankyou (sorry about how long!)
We bought Nala from Charlotte last April from her first litter. I did hours of research when looking for a pup as a really wanted one from a home breeder so that the pup was well socialised and born in a house. Nala has just turned a year old. She is the most adorable dog, very well behaved, she’s been quick to learn – even learning some tricks. Charlotte was great. She clearly loves her dogs and becomes very attached to her pups. She let us visit on a number of occasions before Nala was ready to come home. I am so glad we got our dog from Charlotte. Thanks
We bought Mowgli from Charlotte in February 2012, from Lottie’s first litter. Charlotte adores her dogs and gets very attached to the puppies too. Her advice was valuable and comprehensive which was useful as although we already had a dog we’d never had a small breed before. It was reassuring to know that all the health checks were done. We were also happy to hear that Cavapoos are robust and confident – and not yappy!
The busy and loving environment they are bred in means that Charlotte’s puppies are socialised very early; they affectionate and calm, unfazed by children, strange dogs of all shapes and sizes, or new people. Mowgli is cheeky yet laid back, fun, energetic and very loving. He is totally devoted to us and to our older dog and loves to run for miles in the woods with us.
Thank you, Charlotte, for making the whole puppy buying experience so positive and giving us our lovely boy.
Bonnie was the only girl from Rosie’s and Rupert’s latest litter and she is a perfect puppy – playful, loving, friendly and extremly cute. Thanks to Charlotte who contacted us, when Bonnie became available, she is now part of our family.
Charlotte has been extremly helpful throughout the whole process from when we met Bonnie until we picked her up at 8,5 weeks. She let us see Bonnie twice a week, as we were living close by and made the separation from the litter painless for us… Puppy was already well socialize when we got her, coming from Charlotte’s busy house she is now brilliant with children, other dogs and cats. Thank you very much Charlotte!
We welcomed Teddy into our family almost a month ago. He has been fantastic so far, really calm (for a puppy!), friendly with our 4 young children, and we are delighted with him!
Charlotte was really helpful with lots of information we needed, and didn’t hassle us to make a decision!!
It is obviously a safe and caring environment that her puppies are being bred in, and we would be very happy to recommend anyone looking to go for it…
After deciding it was time for a four legged addition to our family we started researching breeds and breeders and thats when we came across Charlotte. After our initial phone call I came away exited to have found someone who seemed so passionate about what she did. When we came to visit the litter of pups we knew we had made a great dession. Charlotte didn’t rush us, we were introduced to both parents and taken through all medicals tests from both mum and dad. We fell in love with what is now our “buddy” and after committing to him, Charlotte let me and my family come and visit each week and also gave me regular email/text updates until Buddy was ready to come home.
Amazing breeder who clearly loves the pups she breeds.x
It is evident from first speaking to Charlotte that she cares about her dogs. The breeding environment is caring & homely, this was important to us. Charlotte was extremely helpful throughout the whole process, she covers all the bases if you are new to puppy ownership. We couldn’t be happier with our puppy Max.
We bought our puppy Izzie from Charlotte in the summer. She is a delight – a really friendly, healthy, beautiful dog! As she was due to come to us just at the start of the summer holiday period, and we already had a holiday away booked a few weeks later, Charlotte helped out by looking after her for us while we were away. A really good breeder to buy from.
