Have been dog broody for years but it's never been the right time. It feels like now circumstances are right and I know the ds's would love it (it would be my dog though, am well aware that the novelty of walking in the rain and picking up crap wears off with kids pretty soon).
Have been looking at small breeds that are good for families and cavaliers seem to pop up quite a bit. Just wanted to know what people's experiences were. I know that they can be prone to certain health conditions (but that seems to be something that has come up with a lot of breeds that I've looked at so not sure how to reduce that risk)
Haven't discounted the idea of a whippet but we do have an old cat so not sure we should risk that. Haven't discounted a rescue dog by any means either.
Not rushing into anything would probably not be looking at getting one until next year but do want to do my research first.
