It’s as extreme as I’ve ever seen in a dog. I helped raise our Cavalier, but my partner is his favorite and I might as well not exist. He will whimper when he’s with me and my partner isn’t in the room, I’ve never seen anything like it. I’ve had Samoyed’s and Shelties and Bulldogs and I’ve never had a dog I helped raise and nurture sort or treat me like a nuisance. As much as I love him, I’m not thrilled about his showing such extreme favoritism. As I’ve read and spoken to people, it seems a hallmark of the breed. Be prepared if you’re not deemed the favorite it can be shocking and a bit hurtful. Read up a lot before choosing this breed.

She just gets smarter and mor particular with age. Lots of meds am and pm keep her with us and she is always a chow hound. One item that is a little unusual is that the only time she gets territorial and “guards the house” is when she spots any animal on the big screen and especially other dogs. She digs her feet into the rug and runs up and barks big time at the intruder on the screen. Anywhere else, another dog is always a potential buddy. She is good friends with a feral cat who had made our outside covered porch his home and become domesticated but remains an outside cat here in Florida. We cherish every moment we have left with Lily and will be enjoying her company as long as we can. <br />The breeder in Pasadena has spotted breeding Cavaliers because Of the overbreeding health issues that have emerged since we got her in 2008 and recommends a Papillon as an alternative but it’s hard to imagine. We have been spoiled with such a wonderful family member who will be missed greatly one day. GWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03018658089725601431noreply@blogger.com
