I just read the post from our new member from Montana about one or two…I should have read it earlier. It would have helped me make up my mind faster. I have Tilly, who is now 10 months. And I was back and forth on a second Cavi. Then I found online (don’t we all search the internet for Cavaliers all the time?) a breeder only 45 miles from me that has a Black and Tan 8 week old male. After talking to her for a bit, I now have a little puppy for Tilly. And for me. I’ll be getting him on Friday. I am so excited and a little nervous getting a little puppy again. Tilly is getting so easy to care for now and she is mostly potty trained, she no longer chews anything that isn’t her toys and sleeps all night. Now I’ll be starting that all over again. But I see lots of cavalier lovers that have more than 1. I hope it’s as easy as you all make it sound. Now I just have to come up with a name for the darling.

Congratulations on Tilly - and your - new puppy :luvluv:

I actually think this is a really good age gap, as you say, Tilly's training is mostly in place and she will really enjoy having a little playmate. Sometimes it takes a few weeks for them to bond, Tilly has been used to having your attention to herself, too.

Make sure you schedule time for lots of individual play and training sessions with each of them.

Don't forget boys can be sexually mature before 5 months, so you need to have a plan in place to manage them when Tilly is in season - do you have someone that could take care of one of them for those 3-4 weeks?

We look forward to meeting the new little fellow :love:

This book is really helpful and should be on everyone's reading list!

Thank you for your encouragement. Three days and they are already getting on great. BTW Tilly was spayed so she won’t come into season. And he will be neutered.
 
The name that he decided on is Ollie. I was trying Elliot, but he never even looked my way when I called him that. He comes running to Ollie. Wish I could have picked my name.
