There is some mystery about the actual origins of our breed, ie what breeds other than King Charles were used, and there is a huge possibility that one creature used was not a dog, but a mogwai.( Look at how many cavaliers are called Gizmo.)
Now any cavalier who knows of this ancestory knows that the cardinal rule is to avoid getting wet, or aweful things will happen.
My lot are well educated and have a special device, invisible to humans , to remind them. Across my back door is a special membrane. Should anyone get too excite about 'out' and rush through the door , towards wet and the unmentionable, they are immediately catapulted back to the safety of the kitchen.
Cathryn, I think your lot should get one of these appliances before somethiing aweful happens in Polesworth. I only have three, but all yours loose, after morphing is unthinkable. (Just had visions of them on the trampoline and throwing eggs at the neighbours),
