I'm glad someone posted the youtube link. I'm in the US and have wanted to see this. I find all this information good for all of us and troubling what about someone like me who hopes to own a cavalier puppy one day? I am new to the "pure breed" world. I am learning about cavaliers to be a better owner. Am I only hoping the own a "doomed" breed? I have been looking for a breeder who does scan their breeding stock, takes their dogs to a cardo for heart checks and I have learned a lot about at what age my stud and dam dogs should be at what tests. However, it is VERY hard to find this breeder.....with all the science and know how I am not willing to roll the dice and have a puppy created for me with poss serious problems. I do not want to support anyone who is not doing the RIGHT things for the breed. I want a healthy dog. What are my chances for ever owning a cavalier??? Is this a dream of mine that will never come true? :bang: I really trust the input of all of you. Please let me if I'm understanding all of this. I have looked into working with rescue groups here in the US maybe I can help the breed that way for now but I still want a puppy one day.
Sorry this post is a little rant-ish. I'm just concerned for this breed too.
Thanks,
Melissa
