"We recently moved to the area and were looking to adopt a pair of puppies. Laura responded quickly to our inquiry and was very helpful throughout the entire process. We fell in love with Teddy and Bella on our first visit and are so grateful that they are now part of our family. Thank you, Laura!"
Samantha Vergani
Owner of Maple
Italy
"When I decided to get a cocker spaniel puppy, the Hazzard Family was the first page I visited and Laura was the first person I contacted, there was something about her that made me want one of her puppies. I visited several breeders before meeting the THF puppies in person and I can say that Laura's puppies are unique. Her passion for cocker spaniels is felt everywhere and she manages to raise every single puppy as if it were hers in the end, regardless of the family to which it will be delivered. During the weeks of waiting Laura is super helpful, I could only recommend The Hazzard Family to everyone to find their puppy, it is truly a one-of-a-kind reality, as is the fantastic Laura."
Hailee Morrione
Owner of Winston
Italy
“My Fiance and I decided we wanted to add an additon to our family, we found Laura through a simple google search and trusted the process. She was knowledgeable and super easy to work with. The puppy is healthy and so so so loved. We could not have been more blessed to come across this beautiful family to welcome our baby boy into our lives. He is amazing with kids, adults, other puppies and such a cuddle bug. Thank you x10000 for blessing our family.”
Sabrina Ronchi Barbierato
Owner of Elisabeth Queen Arizona
Italy
"I got to know Laura thanks to cocker spaniels and I can say that she is a fantastic breeder, meticulous in checking her dogs (x-rays, genetic tests, supplementary tests that many other breeders don't do, and constant examinations throughout the pregnancy). Her dogs, whom I've come to know over the years, all have a wonderful and very balanced character. I had the opportunity to see many puppies and they all stood out for a special quality that touched your heart. We got Elisabeth from her after losing our Lady. It was impossible to resist those languid eyes and her sweetness. I can only say that everyone should have the fortune of being able to have a dog bred by Laura because the imprinting that her female dogs leave on their puppies is something unique."
Erica & Filippo
Owners of Artú
Italy
"We were introduced to Laura through a friend who had already selected a beautiful puppy from her. Instantly, we fell in love with Artù and welcomed him into our family 🤎. He is incredibly well-behaved, sweet, and has brought immense joy into our lives. We receive countless compliments whenever we take him for a walk. We've sought Laura's advice on numerous occasions, and she has always been kind and helpful. We wholeheartedly recommend The Hazzard Family. Thank you, Laura!"
Francesca & Paolo
Cherie
Italy
"I discovered Laura after contacting several Cocker Spaniel breeders, and upon reading her story on the website, I felt an immediate sense of empathy. Meeting her in person solidified our decision as we saw the love and care she provides for her dogs, who are her family. We were in search of a new little member for our family and thus, we chose little Cherie, who is as lively as any puppy can be. Laura has been incredibly attentive and caring even post-adoption. We would highly recommend her family if you're not just looking for a dog, but a new addition to your heart."

"Nina joined our family on a day that we'll always remember. She was born on August 24, 2022, as part of a beautiful litter of seven Cocker Spaniels. Laura has a wonderful collection of Cockers. She is a kind, knowledgeable person who clearly operates with passion and love for what she does. For anyone wishing to welcome a Cocker into their lives, Laura is the assurance of quality you need."
Elisabetta Bettera Correndo
Owner of Guenda
San Felice D/B Brescia
"Guenda arrived on an extremely hot summer day, bringing with her a refreshing presence wrapped in fur. She is not only a gorgeous specimen but also an incredible blend of kindness and equilibrium. She is vibrant, joyous, and remarkably intelligent. Her gentle nature helped fill the painful void left by the loss of our black Labrador. I am certain that from her place beyond the rainbow bridge, she has guided Guenda on her path."
Cristina Garbelli
Owner of Choko
Italy
"I first met Laura at a dog show. From the outset, her professionalism and humanity impressed me greatly. After witnessing one of her puppy litters, I decided to adopt one of her dogs, a lovely pup named Choko. Over the years, we have maintained contact and I knew I could always rely on Laura for any issues that arose. This relationship has grown into a wonderful friendship. Laura's work is underpinned by excellent preparation and numerous sacrifices that are often unseen. With her guidance, I have participated in dog shows and achieved great results. I would choose Laura again, not just once, but a thousand times over. Thank you, Laura, for your dedication and the love you pour into your work. My gratitude towards you is endless."

Owners of Umpa

"Thank you Laura! Umpa has brought a lot of joy and love to our family. We have not had a bad day since we have got her, because she is keen on making us happy whenever she want to have a treat from us. She has a great hart! She enjoys all 4 seasons in Latvia, especially snowy days, so she can have her own ice-cream! Best of luck from Latvia!"
Piera Del Prete
Owner of Barth
Italy
"I met Laura almost by chance. I had just lost my beloved Weimaraner to a tumor and I wanted a less "demanding" dog that could fill the void that had been created in our family. After a lot of thinking I have chosen a cocker spaniel. I was looking for a a serious person, but above all someone who loved his work, so I asked for help from a Facebook group - that pointed out Laura to me. It took me one phone call to understand that she was the right person. Barth is an affectionate, docile and beautiful dog. I call him "cane gentile". He did not fill the pain for the loss of my other dogs but he knew how to carve out a great space of love in our hearts.”
Ilaria Bolzoni
Owner of Wizard
Italy
"Wizard was a wonderful discovery for the whole family. It is impossible not to love him, he is always there, from breakfast in the morning, to herbal tea in the evening, to the shower in the bathroom. Well behaved, beautiful and friendly! Soon we will start with therapy and we will also be workers! Thanks Laura for this special dwarf!”
Andrea Panzeri
Owner of Blake
Italy
“I found Blake by chance after a very long search, when I had lost hope. Through glory I decided to call The Hazzard Family - never have i ever made a better choice in my life! As soon as I saw you Blake in the picture it was love in first sight, digital love until I picked you up for the first time. I have waited so long for the day to be able to take you home with me! Blake my love, you are the most beautiful thing that life could give me, you are beautiful, sweet, tender and affectionate. You are always there, you always have a kiss for me, you know how to brighten up the day even in the darkest and most difficult moments. You are an exceptional life partner, you are the result of so much love and sacrifices that aunt Laura has made in all these years to select an unparalleled line; beautiful, sweet and balanced. I had the honor of spending three days with her and only then did I understand how much sacrifice there is behind all this.. Thank you for everything, Laura! You have been really good not only for giving me Blake, but also for the patience you have in making me grow and advises you have given in this new world for me. You are not just an owner of dogs, you have become a friend and a mentor in terms of cockers for me!”
Michela Aghilar & Roberta Franzetti
Owners of Gas & Luce
Italy, Besozzo
"After having had a female cocker for seven years, we had the desire to have a boy within the walls of the house to keep company with our dog - Luce, so we contacted Laura and in December 2020 our family expanded. We called our dogs Luce and Gas and this amuses everyone a lot, but it is no coincidence, they represent my work very well! Gas is overwhelming in his way of being, he upset his sister Luce who initially did not greatly appreciate her arrival, but thanks to Laura's advice we were able to make sure that their coexistence has now become inseparable! If they do not see each other for a while they look for each other and above all - Gas goes crazy without her, I think it will be very difficult when Luce will no longer be there but now we are enjoying these years together! Gas is intelligent, sometimes overbearing but he is a great cuddle, he always wants physical contact! He respects other dogs and is the man of the house! We thank Laura for her support, the help and advice she gave us right away, what distinguishes her is that she is serious, professional but above all passionated! We are a beautiful family and we love our furry ones with all the love that can be given!”
