I have had the pleasure of having my buddie Graci for 6 years, she is a typical Cocker, happy, athletic and loyal. My primary hobbies are hiking/backpacking. Graci has done several hundred miles in her 6 year old life. Such a joy, she is my companion and at times, guard dog, w”She alerts me of bothersome animals and occasionally bothersome people! She constantly follows me everywhere I go and is always ready to nap or go for a hike! I love this dog and she is a product of excellent breeding! Thanks C&J Cockers
I bought Gizmo from Joe Overlease 13 years ago, an American Cocker Spaniel, he is the best dog I have ever owned. He is the most caring, loving and very intelligent. We bought him as a companion dog for my mom who is blind, he instantly connected with her and became her best friend. We are so happy to have him come into our lives. I wouldn't trade these memories for the world.
I have purchased several cocker spaniels over the past 15 years from Joe Overlease. They have all been beautiful, smart, loving, family dogs. Great with kids of all ages. You will fall in love with any one of Joe's dogs. Everyo e comments on how wo derfuk they are. I would not go anywhere else for a cocker spaniel pup!
Everyone comments on how wonderful Joe Overlease pups are. I would not go to any other breeder! I have always had positive experiences with C&J Cockers! All of my dogs have been intelligent, loving, beautiful and super friendly.

Client experiences extend beyond the climax of transactional associations--sale and delivery. They also extend to and through all communications post-sale.
While the "transactional" process of purchasing my puppy from this establisnment was smooth, post-interactions with the male owner have been disappointing.
On several occasions he has initiated--in my private social media messages--disparaging comments and retorts regarding his political stance. I am an African American woman on the receiving end of his remarks.
Initially, his account blamed his grandchildren, citing that they must have been playing in his message app.
After repeated unwelcomed initiations on his behalf, I advised that I did not appreciate the communications and would be sharing reviews of my experiences post-sale if they continued. They continued, and so, here we are.
My advice is that the owners of this establishment adopt better ethics and business practices that put honor, integrity, fairness, and social awareness first.
This is a strange communication, this woman is as I understand a woman of color has held very good positions in Human Resources for her companies. I think she is smart and have had nice conversations with her on more than one occasion. I will reach out to her again as I have no idea why she is doing this. I suppose it is part of the so called Cancel Thing. I do wish her the best..
We received out little "Gus" (Augustus McCrae Gray) 10/23/2020. He flew from Kansas City to Anchorage, AK. He came out of his kennel happy, active, and frisky. We've now had him a little over two months. He's housebroken, but we're still training in all other areas. Ha! Ha!
I have been very pleased with C & J Cockers! They seem to be very knowledgable, down to earth, and caring. I would, and have, recommended them to anyone looking for a beautiful, healthy, smart cockerspaniel! Thank you Joe and Heather for answering all my questions. And, I may be looking to get another puppy in the spring.
I got Buttons 5 years ago almost 6 in December she is the Love of our lives I can't wait for our other addition in November Mucker Joe and Heather are very special people and really care for there dogs.
I just want to express my deepest appreciation to Papa Joe Overlease, Heather, Rose, and Cherie and all the staff at CJ Cockers. I have adopted Halo 😇 (formerly known as Zigzag) which was one of Fancy LuLu and Rocket man’s pups. I got Halo When he was 5 months old and he is now almost 9 months old. He has grown from being a puppy to a young handsome boy. Let me tell you when you get a puppy it’s like having a baby, you can’t leave them alone or ignore them. They will eventually grow out of that bad things they do. At CJ Cockers they have a Facebook group with other CJ Cocker parents/friends that will help guide you. Joe is always available if you encounter any issues or just want to talk about the pup. CJ Cockers pride themselves on there dogs and I can honestly say and give this honest review that I when I lost my cocker spirit on my birthday I was so sad upset and hurt to the core of my heart, then CJ Cockers came through and I was blessed with Zigzag who is now known as Halo 😇. I am so happy and now I can continue to get the love that Halo has to give me, and I can give Halo the love that he wants and needs also. If your interested in getting a forever friend (or child as I call them) that will Forever be dedicated to you love you and never betray you. I recommend getting a cocker from CJ cockers. They get 10 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ From me.
We brought our Brady home about two years ago and fell in love day one! He has brought us nothing but pure joy and lots of entertainment! He is a very healthy little boy. He’s never had the ear problems cockers are susceptible to. Joe and Heather educated us on all the things that need to be done to keep the pups they send home with us as healthy as they are when they leave Ft Cocker! In the early part of last year we decided we wanted Brady’s momma who Joe had retired. When we got her (Allie) home I took her to my vet who raved about how well she had been taken care of! That says so much to me about Joe and Cherri’s operation! If ever I need another pup I will head straight over to Ft Cocker! Thank you Joe and Cherri for our wonderful pups!
I purchased a puppy from Joe [redacted] this Spring and he not only met he exceeded my expectations My puppy was in excellent condition and clean when he arrived at the airport Joe sent food and water for him to have when he arrived as well as enough of the food Conner was receiving in his kennel that I could transition him to the food I feed without making Conner sick in the process There were even toys for Conner in the roomy travel kennel he was in He has been supportive and answers my questions when I need help and has even called me on occasion to check on Conners progress Conner is a healthy happy puppy and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a great cocker puppy and support beyond what anyone could reasonably expect I can't get the drop down menu to respond so it does not reflect the fact that I would definitely recommend C&J Cockers to anyone looking for a puppy
I had a few devastating dog experiences in the past few years, but I was lucky enough to have found cocker-spaniels.com (Joe), who saved the day! I blindly took a risk buying a puppy across the country and I am so glad I did! Joe's team made the buying experience flawless and my puppy is the most docile, sweet dog I have ever seen. My pup likes to be picked up and carried around like a baby! He likes any attention I can give, but also is happy to play by himself. He is smart and athletic too! My pup is almost 6 months old, and I have yet to take him to the vet because he is a healthy little guy! Joe is always available for help with the pup if needed and he has this great talk show full of helpful info too! I honestly, don't know how anyone buys a dog anywhere else. #JoeCockerspaniels

I have owned many dogs and especially Cocker-Spaniels in my years of life and can I say I have never had a Cocker that has such a loving disposition as I have been blessed to have then the one I received from CJ Cockers (Cocker-Spaniels.com) From the beginning of the process, the price and the continual after care and concern that Joe [redacted] and his staff provide it is the best experience I have ever had in my life My vet was beyond impressed with the care that the puppy received while in their care, during the flight and just how healthy this girl is I have had her for almost years and I still have daily contact with the breeder and she is absolutely fabulous I would recommend their business to anyone wanting to have the best puppy/dog in the world They also continue their care and concern for the life of the dog In addition should there be any problems they also want to know and will even fly the dog back to them if the pairing doesn't work

I read a negative comment from a buyer who suggests they were overcharged in delivery...I might suggest to that new owner: you WERE contacted ( as you state),received a wonderful puppy who will love you unconditionally and have a lifetime of support from CJ cockersIf you had any real knowledge of the breeders who are only interested in profits and sales, you would have THANKED Joe for being sure your puppy was shipped in ther BEST way possibleIf you were overcharged by your standards, why not talk it out with Joe, the Breeder, who will help expalin and resolve the issue vswrite negative comments?
