Hello everyone and greetings from Pennsylvania!!! 
I am so glad that I found this webiste and only wish I had found it a long time ago.
Alittle about me.
My name is Bev, i'm from Erie, Pennsylvania. My husband Randy and I been married for 23 years and have three daughters (16, 18 & 20). I work part time seasonally for the PA fish and boat commission at a Marina. We had been a cat family for over 20 years when last spring a friend of mine showed up with a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. Well as you know it took me no time to fall in love and I instantly began yearning for one of my own. Just think unconditional love, no asking for the car keys, desperately pleading for the latest American Eagle Jeans or a tuition bill for a $35,000 a year college. So I started doing my research and found that if I were to build a dog, a Cavalier has everything thing that I would want in a dog.
My husband had been hinting around for a new motorcycle for months, so one day I called him at work and said "you know you will eventually get your motorcycle, but I want a Cavalier and I want it now". He asked me if I knew what I was doing (again, we've never had a dog) of course I said yes even though I didn't have a clue. I piled my girls in the car and said we were going on a road trip. Three 1/2 hours later we were at the breeders and found Molly.
On a side note, at the same time my dad was in the end stages of cancer and he was worried that a puppy might interfere with my ability to be available to care for him when the time was needed. (Of course that was a ridiculous notion but I assured him I would always be there). It turned out that Molly was a great source of comfort to my dad and was right there with him in the end.
Well, fast forward.....Molly is now 16months old and 12lbs of unconditional love. Even my husband who was the biggest anti dog person I knew, is absolutely in love with her. She accompanies me to work and everyone one that passes through the Marina knows her by name and has to get a big greeting from Molly.
Sorry to be so long winded, but I am so excited to join your group, I spent hours last night reading over posts and thinking to my self "oh I wish I had seen this months ago!" :jump:
Thank you for having me....
Bev
