Had to have our stzhu put down in Jan, after 11 wonderful years.
Looking at getting another dog in the next few weeks/months.
Cavalier King Charles, seems to fit the bill.

The only thing is, that there will (possibly) be nobody in the house for approx 8 hrs for ONE day a week. I've read up on the breed and the only thing that comes back negative for our situation is they don't like being left along for long periods of time, apart from that it would be perfect.
Any views from owners would be appreciated.

Obviously the dogs welfare is the most important thing.
Thanks Andy.

Thanks for the replies, I'm aware of the problems with the breed and making sure they are health tested, KC reg.
Going to look at one tomorrow and we're right for her and she's right for us, then she will have a new home.
Will post up piccs.
Once again thanks for the help.

My daughter will now be able to look after our dog for the one day now, so that is that problem solved.. Just got to find a suitable one now. I was going to look at one about 70 miles away, sort it all out on Monday,to go over on Tuesday. Phoned her Tuesday morning and she said she had decided to keep her,! oh well will keep looking.

We have sorted a dog visitor for the couple of days a month she would be on her own.
Although I think my wife is close to packing up work to stay with her ! ! !

She's called Luna, we are into space and moon landings in our house so we've dropped the R off .
Took her for second jab yesterday, can't go for walks until Friday,

I know that is the problem, enough walks but not too much, Also well aware that it is very easy to to overfeed because they are such quiet animals.
We intend to keep an eye on her diet,exercise,weight, She's given us so much pleasure already, we want her to have the best care and be in the best of health.Grandson and her get on well.
