LexieAndSprinkles
Well-known member
Hi everyone! I'm Jordan. I found your forum today while researching Cavaliers as therapy dogs. I am currently as psychology major studying the emotional effects of therapy dogs on children with disabilities and chronic illnesses. I have two amazing Cavaliers.
(Lexie being a Princess)
My Lexie will be 2 in April. She's a small ruby Cavalier weighing about 9 pounds Her nickname is Princess Pup because she is such a little Diva. She is content spending her entire day in my lap being brushed and kissed. She absolutely adores my little siblings (ages 3, 2 and 4 months) She is quite the mother hen. My 2 year old brother has been diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy and she is now a HUGE part of his therapy sessions. She is currently in obedience classes so that she can get certified to help other kids with disabilities.
(Sprinkles with the baby toy she stole)
My Sprinkles is 6 months old. She's a blenheim Cavalier and already weighs 12 pounds. She's the complete opposite of Lexie. She's spoiled to the point where I think she doesn't quite function as a dog, which is why her nickname is Baby Dog. We recently had to buy my 4 month old brother a new vibrating bouncy seat because Sprinkles claimed his as hers. She naps in it all the time while it vibrates haha. She also is obsessed with pacifiers. I never thought I'd have to be breaking a pacifier habit with my dog! She absolutely loves the snow, rain, sleet and any other weather condition that Lexie hates.
The two of them are completely inseparable though. I couldn't have asked for a better pair
