I have amazing puppies from Crumley. Two 3 years olds, one 2 year old, and 16 week old and a 13 week old. They are all great and all healthy well Socialized pup. In fact, the reason I ended up with a second puppy is because I found out my 2 year olds Mother had her third and final litter and I wanted another pup with a great disposition like hers. She has taken to potty training just like her sister- so smart and eager to please. Thankfully the 16 week old has been the same. I have one who was extremely had to train but that is completely her personality. She's stubborn and independent but even with those challenges she is the most loving itty bitty blessing. Dogs are trained to know where the outside is at their age when you get them and they do have to be trained at a new home bc it's a completely new setting. It's like Potty training a child. Also every single One of mine has slept in my bed since day one. I'm a light sleeper so when they move I wake and am able to take them out overnight. There has only been one accident across these 5 dogs...and I have two others...so a total of 7 and work full time. Some kids are easy and others are a challenge but it definitely take work and patience. Small dogs have smaller bladders dogs their ability to last without an accident takes time...about and hour for every month of age over three months. I believe these dogs are well taken care of and I've been both at the house and the bed and breakfast. She has lots of dogs on site to kennel as a business and parents come On site to breed but my babies all have guardian families and live in a home full time with those families and not onsite. Again, just like human babies while we want every single one to be healthy, there is no guarantee but the change from 3 years ago to not they have increased their healthy guarantee from 1 to 2 years so they stand by their dogs and want make sure that you have a life-long companion. I have a happy brood! read more

Buyer Beware!!! we bought a healthy puppy in February 2021. We picked her up. She has now been diagnosed with high blood pressure and first stage MVD. I wrote to the breeder to discuss this with her and they never responded. My Bella is only 5 1/2 years old.... I do not recommend this breeder at all when I was thrilled in the beginning. You all should be ashamed of yourselves. read more

'sorry to read of the negative issues. I had a very positive experience. Yet, from 2 prior cavs that I acquired in Broward County, FL (not from Crumley), I learned of the CMS issue. I picked up my pup in Jan 21. I recommend their puppy school for socialization skills ! read more

Zero wasn't an option. I was grieving the loss of another pet when I had the displeasure of coming across these people. I paid for advance trained and received a dog who couldn't walk on a leash and was terrified of everything and everyone. I'd never met a Cavalier that didn't immediately try to lick my face off. This poor baby didn't even know how. When I voiced my concerns I was told "we will send you another" I felt he needed me and would not have a chance with these people. He ran from strangers and ducked everytime you tried to pet him. After intense training/socialization To the tune of $1,000 he gradually improved and I carried him everywhere so we could bond. We had a few good years then the heart problems started. He also had extreme dental issues and lost half of his teeth. I've never had that before with my other cavaliers. Another several thousand dollars. He also had mobility issues from time to time and needed meds to walk. Then this June he collapsed with congestive heart failure. ER trips, 8 meds a day, restricted activity, heart specialists. Another 15K plus. He died in my arms tonight less than 8 years old struggling to breathe with his little heart pounding. I could not recommend someone less than these people. All interactions felt sketchy, cold and uncaring. I gave that little guy all the love and best medical treatment money could buy and I will probably never have another dog again after this experience. Please do your research better than I did and don't make adoption decisions while you are grieving. read more

I have now had three cavaliers from holly crumley. They all have had heart disease. Be careful.

BUYER BEWARE. Got my tri color male from here. He was born 2/19/22. He had asperated pneumonia before coming home. I paid 1k for a board and train for basic training. He barely knew how to sit. Rip off. He also came sick with giardia. It took 3 rounds of antibiotics to beat it. He smelled awful when I got him too. Also, he eats food incredibly fast which makes me believe they had to compete for food. My rescue dog does the same but he never sees her eat. Could be just a general thing. He had major issues potty training. Also, anal gland rupture which cost a ton. and extreme snorring at night. His face is lopsided and is not even close structure wise to the breed standard. He is also bow legged in the back. This April, out of nowhere he developed back issues. We are getting tested for CM. I can't even pick him up without him screaming. Also they didn't have a picture of the father, as far as I know they don't even show their dogs. I see a lot of reviews with CM so far his heart is healthy but he's got back issues , a weird gait from the start, and anal gland issues that I have to take care of every four week or infection occurs. I love my dog to death but wish these people would take breeding more seriously. I knew this breed had issues but several issues is not fair to people. You are better off purchasing from a breeder who is affiliated with the cavaliers kennel club of America. Also these people are mass breeders because there is always puppies in basically every color variation on their website. Please think again before choosing Crumley. read more

We are so fortunate to have found this wonderful breeder!

We bought her home 3 weeks ago and she has been such a joy! The breeder's facilities are beautiful and clean, and the puppies are healthy and loved by the entire staff. If you are thinking about getting a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, do not hesitate to choose Cavaliers by Crumley. Thank you for bringing our little Mei-Mei to our lives! read more

Loved the location of Cavaliers by Crumley. There was a mix up when picking my puppy up so I waited about an hour for the owner to bring him to me. He is the sweetest puppy and as of now 6 months old still has a clean bill of health. read more

Our pup is still here. Diagnosed with skin cancer a few years ago. SM symptoms are causing increased discomfort for him, the surgery worked for years but now has lessened effectiveness. He is now 8.5. Still would steer clear of this breeder or anyone who breeds their dog with a Crumley dog. read more

We purchased our puppy in September 2022. His puppy visit was 1 day after arriving home and he was positive for Coccidia. He was also below the 5 pound weight limit we were told was required to take him home. He would not eat and it has continued to be a struggle since. At around 4 months, we noticed his wide stance and gait. Xrays revealed some hip concerns but our vet said it could just be him growing into his body. She wanted to monitor and re-image at the 1 yr mark. Maverick was imaged last week when we took him in for his anorexia and he was found to have a shallow socket and dysplasia in the right hip. Surgery is inevitable (RFO) in the future. Maverick also has Chiari Malformation with some signs of syringomyelia. We will manage this with meds for as long as we can but if his symptoms worsen, MRI and possible surgery may be needed for this as well. The Breeder and Trainer were both quick to respond to me when I asked for advice related to his eating issues and actually recommended the medical evaluation for health concerns that may be related to his anorexia. As soon as I let them know about the health issues, I have had ZERO response. I would not recommend this breeder and wish I had done more research of previous reviews. I am SO glad we bought the health insurance because this little boy is going to have an enormous amount of medical bills. Please research the breed prior to purchasing from ANY breeder. I know CM is common in 95% of the breed but I think "breeding for the smaller size of standard" has REALLY affected these puppies' outcome of developing SM. read more

Brought home gorgeous puppy. Because I have raise litters I watched him carefully. I fed him more than recommended by the breeder as he was eating everything in the yard. Sticks, bark, leaves and bugs. His forces got softer and bloody over time. Took three vet visits for them to clue in. He tested positive for Giardia. Tomorrow I go back to test again. I don't think it's gone. Its absolutely infuriating the amount of cleaning and sterilization I have undertaken. The breeder needs to address the infection at the source maybe the department of Agriculture refs a phone call. Angry is an understatement! Rosemary Plant read more

Puppy mill..puppy mill..puppy mill. Don't do it. There are so many stories of health problems. Parasite rampant. Rude people. They just want your money and don't care how they get it. Selling a puppy "as is" what kind of pet owner says that? Obviously not the kind that puts the animals first read more

Our Cavalier who came with a guarantee that she was healthy has so far genetic issue with one eye smaller than the other and has cataracts in both eyes, she has a small liver (hence why she wouldn't eat, she was nauseous), and at 2 years old he was diagnosed with yet another genetic issue CMSM - her brain is larger than her skull and spinal fluids builds up and causes severe nerve pain. Then lastly she just had surgery to remove a urate stone. STAY AWAY FROM THIS BREEDER - she sells unhealthy puppies without a blink. read more

I purchased a "scratch and dent" puppy for $500. they told me she had a couple of hernias that needed fixed. We got them fixed and I have an email from them saying they would reimburse me. and now they are saying they won't. This breeder has a lot of "scratch and dent" puppies. Its time to retire some of their dogs. My poor puppy can't walk correctly and the breeder doesn't seem to care. My vet is so upset. read more

Our puppy came to us very, very sick and undersized. She had Giardia and two parasites along with 3 hernias. She had diarrhea for 4 months and it stunted her growth. We put her in the extended training program and the only thing she was trained in was the crate. We adore her but to pay $4500 for her with the training was insane. We sent all the vet paperwork to them and they paid for her vet bills, which we were very grateful for. Just Buyer Beware - this organization has gone downhill and I would look elsewhere for your Cav. read more

Love our dog so much but about 5 days after picking her up she had blood in her stools and we were told it was giardia (sp). Took 2 rounds of medication to get her back on track. Read other reviews and it seems like it is common with this breeder so worries me a little. read more

I bought my dog in December 2015 and had trouble from the begin. Charlie was sick and could not keep food down, took him to the vet and was treated. Four years later I noticed Charlie could not keep up with my older dog while walking. we had him checked out and found a heart murmur. Charlie was only 7 when he went into heart failure. I believe this breeder thinks about money over Heath, do your research before buying. I love this dog with all my heart and spent thousands of dollars trying to save him. He died in my arms and was way too young. I am in the process of researching breeds in the Georgia/Florida area, just stay clear of Crumbly. read more

I love cavaliers by crumley! Holly and Hillary are up front and forward with you and pair you with what they feel is suitable for your family . Don't pay attn to the negative reviews . They have different levels of puppies To purchase . They educate you on what you are getting and paying for . They even offer great prices for boarding . We love our ruby Hinder we purchased last October . He was the perfect match for us ! We are always stopped and asked where Hinder came from and complimented on how well behaved and trained he is! The negative reviews left are completely false ! Once you get a crumley cavalier you won't regret it! read more

Cavaliers By Crumley - Pet Training Near Me - Lula, Georgia

DON'T waste your $$$$$. We received our Cav at just about 8 weeks old. We were told she was from Ireland. The time line did not add up, she had to have traveled across the pond at around 4 weeks? I should have realized and questioned more. To the point our gal was diagnosed with a neurological disorder SM. (Look it up on any Cav group site) Known as a small dog disorder. When I informed Holly of the diagnosis she asked for proof and said she never had a pup with the problem before. Turns out a growing number of Crummy sorry, Crumley pups have been diagnosed with the same problem. Holly & Co. Really know how to play the game! It's not bad enough they mass produce sick pups & command over $4k, they also rob u at their pet supply store. I'm sick at the thought someone could be this cruel & greedy read more

Would give zero stars if it was allowed. Our dog. purchased from this breeder, passed away today and wasn't even 3 years old. He had a heart murmur and a neurological condition, both well known to the breed. The neurologist at UF said that cavaliers are one of the top 2 breeds seen in their animal hospital with health issues. I had no idea and only researched once Chipper's health began deteriorating. I will forever beat myself up over this. Do your research!! Norway has banned their breeding! This mass production of beautiful, sick puppies for profit is disgusting! read more

We purchased two Cavaliers from Holly. One was almost immediately diagnosed (from our personal vet) with syringomelia. He was barely a year old. He passed away at 6 years old from complications of SM. Our other cavalier went from a grade zero heart murmur to a grade six heart murmur in one year. He passed away at barely seven years old. Someone described her as a "puppy mill with lipstick on" and I can't think of a more perfect description. She has - literally - HUNDREDS of puppies on her property. Quite honestly, someone needs to shut her down. Or at the very least, put a limit on the number of puppies she can have at a time. I'm CERTAIN that she and her vet are in cahoots. We used her vet (Lance Animal Hospital) at her recommendation and the vet kept telling us that the symptoms our dog was having was the result of a "slipped disc". We could never get our dog out of pain. We finally took him to a local vet who immediately diagnosed him with SM and sent us to the University of Georgia. I feel like her vet makes SURE that all of her dogs get a clean bill of health. I suggest purchasing a dog from anywhere but Crumley Cavaliers. read more

We have been very happy with Cavaliers by Crumley. We currently have a black and tan and a tri color and will soon have a ruby. I have friends ask me all the time where we got our cavaliers and, I proudly let them know that they are a Crumley Cavaliers! Susan R. read more

I am updating my review I posted months ago. Our puppy, who is now 1.5 years is still not potty trained. I'm good with dogs, I can train them......something is still not right with this one. these reviews are so correct. This is a puppy mill, at least by my definition. Way too many dogs, some unhealthy (ours had GI issues when we got her and for about a year), pushy sales tactics (that should be an immediate red flag). I beg you to do your research. I know it's tempting to get a dog that's available immediately. I think this is a purchase that is worth the wait from a smaller and family oriented breeder. read more

Cavaliers by Crumley is putting lipstick on a puppy mill. My dog was sweet and beautiful. I paid $3,250 for what Holly Crumley was described as an advanced puppy. On her siteshe changes the definition of that. At the time that I bought Ruby. Holly referred to her as Rudy. By the time I bought Ruby, are they advanced puppies were advertised as potty trained excetera. Ruby was nowhere near potty-trained in fact I think she could not control her bowels. I have raised dogs from 7 weeks old for their whole lives. I know what I am doing. I took Ruby out 5 times a day to make sure. she would poop outside and poop inside. I do not think she could control her bowels. my vet really tried to help by changing her diet. I will get back to that. The other thing about Ruby is that she was so tentative and full of fear.v She bonded with me. I think she wanted to be safe. I have wonderful neighbors who also tried to engage her but she would just tuck her tail between her legs and not go near them. 2 signs of puppy mill are bowel incontinence and excessive fear. Ruby's trainer,Sara, at Holly Crumley told me Cavaliers typically have loose stools. Holly Crumley did not reveal the loose stools even as I questioned her. Read my Better Business Bureau complaint and Holly Crumley's crummy reply. Ruby and I loved each other. I cry for Ruby everyday. Please read my complaint bbb.org. Please read the other complaints on Yelp and on Facebook regarding Holly Crumley. Holly Crumley lied on the Better Business Bureau response when she told me that her trainer had reached out to me multiple times and that I had never responded. I know for a fact that is a lie, because the trainer and I were in constant contact. Holly Crumley also stated that Ruby had been rehomed and was thriving. so that statement is certainly suspect. but I gave her back to Holly Crumley, I said should I send all her toys and medicines and shampoo so she will feel safe? Holly said oh yes send everything. Then I said I will take her back as a special-needs puppy and just deal with her issues. No response except on the Better Business Bureau dispute. On the Better Business Bureau dispute Holly said I am sorry you had unrealistic expectations. What unrealistic expectations on my 4K 6 month old dog that I kept 9 months. Through our Network , I have learned that one can adopt a good solid cavalier from one time family type breeder. Do not buy a dog from Holly Crumley. Please feel free to call me.

Paid for a star puppy,he came very thin and untrained. Our vet was horrified by his health and condition at first visit but Holly just said to get a new vet. He continued to have major health issues and died after we had him for only 6-months. Holly only offered us another puppy for half off but we wouldn't touch her dogs again with a 10 ft pole. read more

We recently received a phenomenal ruby male, heart strong, eyes bright and perfectly mannered as he came to us trained. The staff at her facility is not only professional, but courteous and completely knowledgeable about Cavalier King Charles spaniels. The kennel building where she boards other dogs and house some of her Cavaliers is well maintained, cleaned, airy and music is always playing for the comfort of her wards. There is nothing bad I can say about Holly and her kennel, staff and Cavaliers. She is the best around, easy to get along with, truthful and honest to a fault. You'd never go wrong adopting from Cavaliers by Crumley. Holly is great. read more

We purchased the perfect puppy from Holly! Ciel arrived in Charleston, SC at 6 months old fully trained and housebroken. We get stopped everyday with inquiries about her breeder. She is the perfect size and has a wonderful disposition. Thank you! read more
