Charlie says: "My name is Charlie. I'm a ruby-colored Cavalier King Charles spaniel. I am the third Cavalier that my masters have had and I think I'm the best! I was born on March 3, 2006, and am growing like a weed. My masters are "cage-training" me so I'm learning to go potty outside when I wake up from my nap. I have an older adopted brother, Barney, who likes to play with me. Every once in awhile I pull on his ears and he growls at me. But soon he forgives me and we're back to playing again. There is a ramp up to my masters' bed that I learned to use right away. I try to sleep with them all snuggled up in the down comforter rather than be in my cage on my doggie mattress... and that works sometimes! Some people have stopped by and said that I am already spoiled. DON'T YOU BELIEVE IT! After all, as King Charles proclaimed, we Cavaliers have a RIGHT to the kingdom!" Charlie and Barney
