From MARVIN'S family:
We have had 3 cocker spaniels in the last 27 years. We lost our Trudy due to illness early in 2024, we were heartbroken. We contacted Tania looking for a young cocker and she provided us with a 2 year old beautiful chocolate male, Marvin. He instantly became a brother to our 11 year old King Charles spaniel Chance.
Last year, I had a stroke and could no longer provide the attention that Marvin needed, playing, walks, etc. I contacted Tania to seek out a new home for Marvin where he would get the love, care and attention he needed and deserved. Even though Tania is relocated in Mexico, she was able to placed to placed Marvin with a couple who also had a recent lost of their loved cocker.
Marvin now has the loving family and home he deserves. Marvin is happy and loves his new family and home back in Canada. I do get pics of Marvin now and then from Tania, it makes me so happy to see Marvin doing well and has his new family that he loves so much.
I will always love and miss Marvin dearly. Thank you Tania for making this possible. This broke my heart to part with Marvin but it was the correct thing to due to my illness.

From Lizzie's family:
So fortunate to have found Tania and Blackgem cockers. Last three years have been brightened by the presence of most charming and adorable cocker Lizzie, who is dearly loved by the entire family! We are fortunate to have met Tania‘s other cockers and puppies, and honestly, they are the most gorgeous cocker spaniels we’ve seen. Tania is committed to breeding healthy, merry, sociable and most beautiful puppies in a caring and loving environment. We are very appreciative of the ongoing support she has provided since our fur baby moved in. Tania is just a phone call away and always very helpful. We are grateful to be part of the Blackgem family and highly recommend Tania!

From AHSOKA'S family:
It’s been two months since we brought our beautiful puppy home, and we’re very happy. She has a wonderful temperament—calm and affectionate. She’s learned several training commands quickly and is very smart. Getting a puppy is a big decision, and I’m really pleased with the one we chose from Blackgem Cockers.

From SADIE'S family:
We contacted Tania in September 2023 to inquire about getting a puppy. We lost our beautiful dog of 15 years a few months previous. We visited Tania at her well maintained home and viewed her dogs that were treated as kings and queens! We decided on a black female pup and named her Sadie-Sue. Sadie-Sue was a feisty pup and now has a calm demeanor. As for training she is highly intelligent. She rings a bell when she wants to go outside and never makes a mess in the house. She obeys many different commands and even chooses which treat she wants by pawing at the container when she is asked. She is also a very good watch dog and alerts us when someone or a vehicle enters our property. Tania is always there for us when we need advice and she groomed Sadie as well! You couldn’t meet a nicer person who is very caring for her dogs and you can tell she loves them very much. We truly recommend Tania.

From PARKER'S family:
We have had two rescued cocker spaniels through the years and, when our last passed away, we knew that only another spaniel would fill that void. We did our research, looking for a responsible breeder who placed priority on health and temperament. Parker, our pup from Blackgem Cockers, has proved to be everything we hoped for. Tania kept us informed as we waited for pick up day, sending photos and notes about how Parker was progressing. Since that time, she has been helpful and responsive whenever we had questions or just wanted to share how well Parker has fit into our family. Now four years old, he is full of life, has that “merry” cocker temperament, is quick to learn and loves everyone. Equally important, he is healthy in every respect, without the frequent allergies and skin sensitivities from which so many cockers suffer. We couldn’t be happier to have our boy, and to have found Tania and Blackgem.

From LEVI'S family:
We were very fortunate to find Tania& Blackgem Cockers when my husband & I decided that we wanted to get another cocker spaniel. We had 2 previously & fell in love with the breed & their temperament. We liked that Tania was local & quickly built a good relationship with her. We kind of picked each other, because it is very important to her that her puppies go to loving homes with people that she knows will take care of them as well as she does.
When we got to bring our Levi home, Tania spent time with us going over diet & nutrition & medical history.
Levi was the perfect addition to our home & because my husband passed away about 8 months after we got him, I’m so grateful to have him. He’s my best little buddy & never leaves my side.

From HONEY'S family:
We purchased Honey from Tania. We have been very happy with her quality, intelligence and disposition. These characteristics are as a result of breeding which Tania has perfected. Tania has been always been very resourceful when we have question or are looking for recommendations. We visited Tania multiple times as she was grooming Honey and her home and dogs were always in pristine condition. She has the best looking cockers!
