Given the opportunity, he’d lick yours too.

He was enjoying them

Here she is in her recovery suit. She was so out of it yesterday but she's so much better today! 💖

If I were to use the given instructions, I’d need to loop the back, bottom corner to the seat which still leaves my baby flying around the inside of the car.

In this manner, I clipped her in but then put the lap belt over her straps and retract them fully so that it locks. This way if there’s an accident she has much less chance of swinging about the cabin.

What are your thoughts?

Ready as mischievous Stitch!

I got my cav puppy 3 weeks ago, he was 11 weeks at the time. He came home with giardia which is being treated (first round of meds didnt work so we are onto antibiotics) and no training. I was waking up every hour during the night, and he had a million accidents in the house. He bonded with me right away and refused to eat without me hand feeding him, refused to sleep unless I lay by his crate, and his favorite activity was going into the cats litterbox and eating a chunk of cat poop. I was waiting on him hand and foot and when I wasnt, I was cleaning his messes. I admittedly never felt a connection with him for so long. Since then, he has learned "sit" and "touch". He is learning a bit to go to the bathroom outside and has significantly less messes. I've put up a gate on the cat litter so he cant access it anymore. I can now sleep about 4 hours at a time at night. Last night I had my first real connection with my puppy where I liked him for the first time. He stepped in his own poop so I gave him a bath. Afterwards, I wrapped him up in his towel and he just curled up and fell asleep. He just looked so cute.

Just got our boy on Saturday. Government name is Meredith Basil Hayden Sr. 😆
He was a total surprise for our girls who have been asking for a dog for YEARS. He’s just the best!

Our girl loves to collect pinecones. Luckily for us, the neighbor across the street has several large pine trees that are constantly dropping pinecones.

This picture was just the start of her collection. It’s about three times as large now.

Does anyone else’s cavaliers love to collect things?

Im getting my cavalier puppy in the next couple of weeks. I want to be prepared for owning the breed. Any advice or know how would be appreciated. She will be almost 12 weeks old when i get her. I just dont know what to expect . I have had dogs before, but not this breed. I am so excited yo get her and i want to really do right by her

i have a new cavalier puppy and wondering if she will ever grow out of wanting to sleep in my lap or on my chest? i know they are really affectionate dogs so just wanting to know which things are puppy stage things or not

Hi! I’m looking into insurance for my pup. Given cavaliers are more prone to certain health conditions, would you suggest getting insurance where deductible is per condition (Trupanion, Chewy) or deductible that’s per annual (Lemonade, Petsbest)

Also if you don’t mind, can you share how much you’re paying for your cavs insurance/ deductible pls? Or one you’d recommend? Thank you!

UPDATE:
I scheduled an appointment for her. Earliest available is this Thursday…in a sick twist of fate and some gut punching irony that sent me into an emotional spiral…Thursday is the 1 year anniversary of my flat haired retriever.

Let’s pray that her prognosis isn’t as heartbreaking as his was…

Has anyone’s cavi experienced a collapsed trachea? What are some symptoms to look out for? My girl has been wheezing a lot more frequently after any excitement and is panting after doing just any normal activity. I’m slightly worried and, yes, I know I need to get her to a vet soon but am coming here first to better gather some insights on things.

He’s supposed to be an 8 month old AKC purebred Cav, but i’m constantly asked if he’s a long haired dachshund. Either way, I adore him. just curious

Poor boy has been in a cone since September 4th, first it was his neuter and then it ended up healing super badly so his cone time got extended. Then not even 4 days after he was able to be out of the cone he rips his leg open on his crate and has to go right back in it. Finally got the okay on 10/19 to be cone free!!

This is my lad. He's 10 months old and approaching 11kg but as you can see he is still very slender!

Does anyone else have a sports cav?

Hi fellow Cavalier parents!
I recently found a tiny bump on my cav Pace’s back, like the size of a tiny bead.. wondering if anyone here has experienced something similar with your Cavalier! 🥺

Some background:
Size: Very small, about the size of a pimple.
Feels more like a firmer bead underneath the skin. The skin seems to slide over when I gently touch it.
Doesn’t seem to be causing pain, even if I press on it a little.
I first noticed it about 3–4 weeks ago, and it hasn’t grown or changed in size at all. Thought it was a pimple att, which he’s had before so didn’t pay too much attention at first. This one … doesn’t look to have a whitehead (not sure if that’s the right word, but something pimples have typically) or shown any signs of changing since I found it the last time.
About Pace: turning 5 in December. Cutest boy in the world with big tennis ball obsession. He’s healthy overall and isn’t showing any changes in mood, appetite, or temperament etc..

We have a vet appointment scheduled for next week, and will definitely have it checked out.
In the meantime want to post here to see if you’ve had similar experiences, since this is keeing me up at night…
Thanks in advance!! Attaching cute photo in the end as thank yous to this community! ❤️
