My daughter has 2 Cavachons from Dale they are 3 and 1my daughter stopped by Dales coming home from Florida 2 yrs ago called and said she was stppoing by to get me a puppy. I told her no but she brought me a Cavie, Abe home anyway, well he was already doggie door trained, he is a half brother to her dog and they absolutely know they are related. I absolutely love this dog,He is very very needy wanting to always be with me. I would absolutely get another puppy from Dale. My dog is a lover and really well behaved. I just love him.Enough said love my Cavie.

We brought our Cavachon home in late May. Fitz (formerly Bosco) has been just about perfect in every way. He is now almost 6 months old, and he is passing training with flying colors. He has great energy, but also enjoys simply hanging around. We are thankful and feel lucky to have such a great companion. Neither of us knew much about the Cavachon, and now I couldn't imagine our lives without our boy.

We picked up our Lucy on 6/8/25! She has been a joy! Our 8 yr old Lab Finn truly enjoys her! Lynn was so informative & caring breeder. We are in our 70’s, very active, & truly considered this -all is going Great !😊

I bought my little male cavalier back in May of 2024. He is the sweetest little guy. Lynn was super easy to work with to arrange picking him up. I couldn’t have asked for a better little dude!

I picked up my cavapoo Napa in 2022 and she has grown into the best dog with a great personality! When I picked her up I could really tell Lynn took great care of the puppies and Napa was a perfect little puppy from day one. She was so well behaved and nearly potty trained from the start! I did lots of research h on breeders to make sure I picked one that had good values and morals and I am very confident I made the right choice. I check his website all the time even though I’m not quite ready to get Napa a sister yet. When the time comes, I am definitely coming back to Leatherwood Puppies!

I found my sweet cavapoo puppy Henry (formerly Cooper) on Lynn's website. I have never purchased an animal online, and was nervous about it. But I immediately felt comfortable with Lynn, his knowledge and the way he cares for the puppies he breeds. We live in Kansas City and made a weekend trip to the Ozarks to pick up our puppy. On the way, we stopped at a restaurant, and met someone working there who had previously purchased a puppy from Lynn. Lynn has been a great communicator from the time of initial contact, to the present. He is always willing to answer questions and be a help with the transition. I absolutely recommend purchasing your puppy from Lynn at Leatherwood Puppies. Thank you Lynn, we are so thankful for our furever baby!

We got our female Cavachon Teddi during COVID from Leatherwood Puppies in 2020. We live in STL, and Lynn was nice enough to meet us halfway for her "delivery". She is our second Cavachon, and she is a true delight. Her temperament and personality are wonderful. And she is very cute and extremely intelligent. Would highly recommend this breeder!

We adopted Remy (formerly Ralph) in May 2024. Everything about the process was easy and Lynn was a pleasure to work with. Remy is an absolute doll! He is very personable, sweet, playful and loving! All the things you want in a puppy and more! He has slept through the night since the second day. He has only been in our house for a month and is already asking to go outside to potty by sitting by the back door! He loves all people and gets along with our other dog and dog visitors. I couldn’t have asked for a better puppy! I highly recommend Lynn and thank him for giving us this sweet boy!

I received my little girl Cavapoo, Pumpkin ???? from Lynn on 12/9/2023 . I had recently lost my 13 yo Cavapoo and knew I wanted another Cavapoo.

Lynn is a wonderful man who is honest, straightforward and possesses integrity. He was great during the adoption process. He was open and responsive to my suggestions and concerns. We learned from each other. Pumpkin is healthy and thriving. She is beautiful and delightful! Even the transporter Lynn used to get her to me was very pleasant, responsible and reliable.

I recommend Lynn Long and Leatherwood Puppies without reservation.

I brought home a cavapoo from Lynn's first litter of this breed almost two and a half years ago (May 2021). My Willow is so smart and sweet. An absolute favorite at the dog park due to her temperament. She was so easy to house train and continues to learn new tricks quickly. She hardly barks. I am still in love with my little girl. She crate trained well until the night before my grandma passed. She wouldn't settle so to get some sleep I brought her to bed with me. She was there cuddling with me when I got the news the next morning. I don't know how she knew, but she has been the best dog I could have asked for. She functions as my emotional support animal, and with her I've been able to decrease my meds and still function well.

Lynn knows what he's doing when he breeds and cares for his dogs. If I was in a position to get another dog, I'd get it from Lynn. When I discovered him, I was able to set up a meet and greet to choose a dog the next day and he worked with me over the next few weeks leading up to me taking her home. Lynn was super accommodating and kept me up to date on Willow with pictures while I waited to take her home.

I recommend Leatherwood to anyone I meet who is considering a cavapoo because of the success I've had with my sweet girl. She is amazing and I am so grateful to Lynn for her.
