Hi to everyonone...

Josh and Anna here, glad to have found this site! We live on Maryland's eastern shore, and have a three year old blenheim female named Sydney who is the most adorable Cav ever... I know, everyone says that =) She was diagnosed with SM early last year though, we wish we had known about this site then as it seems provide a wealth of experience and information. We went the medication route over surgery, and have been able to keep her symptoms in check with low doses of prednisone and gabapentin. We have been thinking about getting another one, but just had our first baby back in December so have been a bit worried about getting another Cav and having that one end up with SM also.

Looking forward to getting to know everyone and hear your stories...

Oops, looks like my profile picture was messed up and not showing, should be ok now.

Hmm whenever I try uploading a picture to the thread, I get a message saying I don't have permission to do so... Are there restrictions on uploading images to the threads?

Ah, found the post re: no direct uploads to the boards. Here's a few I have online...


Sydney hanging out on the arm rest of the couch, one of her favorite places...



Wondering why we are taking so many pictures...


She is 3.5 years old now, this picture is from when she was not even two. All ready to go out in the snow...


Completely passed out...


She was mostly uninterested in the turtle at first, but once it started to move that totally changed!

Hello Josh. icon_welcome to Cavaliertalk. Your little one is lovely, thanks for sharing the pictures. Looking forward to seeing you around!
