Here are some of our Testimonials.

" We've been talking about getting a cavalier King Charles spaniel for several years. We were pleased to find Rainbow Birdge Cavaliers by Will and Marlene Dudley. We contacted them and visited their home and dogs several times. Several hings we liked-- Dudley's keep their retired dogs and love and provide a home throughout the life for their breeders and retired breeders. Their house was clen and smelled good -- even while they were dealing with moms and young pups. It's obvious their cavaliers are loved and treated well at the Dudley home. We chose Oakley Sunshine and brought her home only to go back and bring Oliver Winston home the next day. Marlene assured us two are really good company for you and each other and we have found it to be true. Thanks to Marlene and Will for providing a great beginning to our two Cavalier KIng Charles Spaniels." Sharon H.

" Here is our family - left to right. Waylon 2023, Molly 2020, Ruby Anne 2018, and Willie 2018. All of our fur babies came from Marlene and Will Dudley. They have different personalities but the most lovable babies anyone could ask for. I would recommend purchasing a fur baby from Marlene and Will they take such good care of them until they come in to your home." Amy & Steve L.

" I had always wanted a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. Through a friend of mine here in Dexter I learned about Rainbow Bridge Cavaliers in Jackson, MO. I contacted them and Tim and I went to Jackson and met Marlene and Will Dudley. We connected with them right away and I knew they would become our friends as well as Cavalier breeders. It was so obvious how they loved their dogs and treated them like their children. Marlene and Will are the best! We looked at their two newest litters of puppies and I knew immediately the one I wanted. A little Blenheim with beautiful white markings. On October 29th we pickd up our preious baby boy and named him Chestnut for his reddish brown coloring. We absolutely fell in love with this wonderful boy. He is sweet natured, loving, great traveler, my lap baby and Tim's shoulder buddy. We don't know what we would do without him! " Maria C.

" Beau and Bentley are two of the sweetest dogs. They love to go on walks with us, and they are the best snugglers. Since we have had them, they have provided nonstop comedy and entertainment in our home. These boys are very loved, and we couldn't imagine life without them. We are very appreciative of Rainbow Bridge Cavaliers and for giving us these two wonderful additions to our family. " Jamie S.

" Princess Nala Bene`. She's an almost 7 year old ruby. Her name loosely translated means 'we're blessed' in Swahilli. The 'Princess' part comes from the diamond white star on her head. She loves snacks, ear & belly rubs and sitting in Mommy's lap (when she's not sleeping on a mound of pillows). Her nicknames are Sister Snorty Shorty, Nala Walla Bennie Boo, Miss Thang, and Boss Lady. She bosses her 73 lbs 'little' brother and he knows not to try her. Boy, has she lived up to her name!! She's the Queen, the ruler of the house, and we absolutely adore her! " Laura W.

" Meet Ollie, Ellie, and Teddy Tinsley, the sweetest angels in the whole world. They are loviong with everyone they meet all ages, and bring us uncondional joy every day. We can't imagine our lives without them. Thank you Marlene and Rainbow Bridge Cavaliers for blessin us with the most special fur friends ever!! " Tori T.

" The quality of companions that come from Rainbow Bridge Cavaliers truly is a rare find. After getting my Auggie from them my family and I immediately fell in love and he became part of the family. During the height of COVID my father ended up getting and unfortunately passing away and m brothers and I knew our mom would greatly benefit from having her own cavalier. Now Sadie works day and night to love and comfort mom. Trusting Rainbow Bridge Cavaliers with sending you home with one of their puppies will be one of the best decisions you can make. I can't recommend them enough. " Anonymous

" We are so in love with our 3 Cavalier King Charles Spaniels born in October 2023. We picked up our 3 puppies Thanksgiving and brought them to our Mississippi home. Our ruby Rudy, blenheim Murphy, and tri-color Remy are such sweet additions to our family. Rainbow Bridge Cavaliers is a reputable breeder and the Dudleys truly love and care for every puppy as their own. Each puppy was sent home with a scrapbook documenting details from the puppy's birth, pedigree, vet visits, general information, and photos." Melissa B.

This was my daughter's first pet. She made it very special for my daughter as we picked up Mia."

" Marlene and her husband opened up their home several times to us while we were waiting the arrival of our puppy, and we couldn't be more pleased!

"We picked up Maxime at the airport in October 2016. She was born august 2nd and cared for at Rainbow Bridge Cavaliers. Every thing was done very professionally. The owners took a really good care of Max; she was in great shape. She's a very sweet little girl and has a great personality. She's also very playful, warm and loving. I would definitely recommend the Breeders based on our experience.   Regards, Marilyn"

Their cuteness and lovable personalities make them the center of attention where ever they go!"  - Tori P.

" I am writing as a new owner of a puppy from Rainbow Bridges. Our new puppy Bijou is absolutely precious. Marlene and Will did a wonderful job preparing our new puppy to come home with us. They provided a book with pictures and instructions for the best care of Bijou, a toy she loves, fresh food and water for her road trip to our home, and wonderful support as she made the transition to her new home. Bijou is a Cavalier King Charles spaniel's and she is sweet, loving, healthy, playful, and totally charming.  We are so grateful for the extraordinary care given to our puppy before coming home. We love our healthy and beautiful new pet.  With gratitude Catherine and Doug."

" I couldn’t have picked a better family to get my puppy, Watson from. He is sweet, playful, and friendly. The first time I took him to the vet after adopting him, they commented on how they could tell he came from a great home, was well taken care of, and healthy. The Dudley’s treat their dogs and puppies like members of their family with the upmost care. We are so lucky to have Watson in our lives!" Lauren G.

" I have a male from Marlene. I was impressed with the way she cares for the puppies. They are in her home, hands on and loved." Salina H.

" I want to share my experience with working with Rainbow Bridge Cavaliers (Breeders: Marlene and Will Dudley). On Jan. 5, 2019, the Dudleys (Santa's helpers to my 7 year old daughter) delievered her ruby cavalier she named Boomer (short for Boomer Sooner - OU Fans). The overall experience working with the Dudley's was absolutley amazing. Information was shared consistently and timely. In fact, the Dudley's met us in St. Louis to complete the exchange and transaction. They provided a detailed puppy book which included comments regarding Boomer from the time he was born (date/time of birth, weight at birth and weeks beyond and general observation about Boomer). They provided certified pedigree information about his parents, litter certificates and AKC information for registration. In addition, pictures of Boomer at birth and weekly until delievered to us. An absolutley amazing experience." Lusha B.

" We adopted our lil joy from Rainbow Bridge on Dec. 22, 2018. He has been a wonderful addition and surprises us daily with how smart he is. He brings us joy each day and follows our instructions well. We couldn't have asked for a better family member than Buster. Will & Marlene Dudley brought us great happiness by giving us our Buster Brown. Our lives are changed forever, thanks so much!!" JoAnna H.

" Adopting a puppy from Rainbow Bridge Cavaliers has been an awesome experience. From the time we put Champ in our car, he has had an excellent adjustment. Marlene gave us a puppy book with pictures and information from the day he was born. Champ bonded with us instantly. He has from the get go. Marlene has just been a phone call away with anything we want to know. I am so pleased that we found Rainbow Bridge Cavaliers." Betty B.

" It was a great experience when it came to adding Benson to our family. We could immediately tell he had been shown nothing but love and proper socialization. The Dudley's truly love their cavaliers and go above and beyond. They breed for quality and it shows!" Rebekah W.

" Both Willie and RubyAnne were purchased at different times from Marlene & Will Dudley - The experience was the greatest!!! We recieved books with photos of our puppies from the moment they were born. We would highly recommend the Dudley's to anyone that is looking for a quality Puppy. This lady is the best puppy pusher in Southeast Mo. - If you're puppy doesn't say Rainbow on it's butt, then you paid too much!" Amy & Steve L.

" Meet Liza. The newest addition to our family. During her first 24 hours with us she has enjoyed playing with her new toys, annoying her big sister and brother, snuggling and sleeping! We absolutely adore her!" Beth T.
