I am so tired of waiting!(for another dog)

Be forewarned though M_L the bossy ones can be really bossy, and the temperamental ones will give some psyche wards a run for their money. If you and your parents do decided to get one look very carefully for one that will fit well with your family.

Thank you, everyone for your help and advice. I am driving more towards something that doesn't shed, and sadly these cute little dogs do. I've looked on every website, but they all say the same thing. LOTS of shedding! I have to look for a different pup.

Crow_noir, thanks but rest assured, if Sassy sees this toward herself in anyway, she will put the dog back in its place. I can tell you right now she will be Alpha dog.

Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are The cutest little dog, but boy are they Hyper! They do shed, but nothing like a Cocker spaniel. They require very little grooming. But do have many health Probems. They have eye problems, hip problems, heart problems, and knee problems, and some have Intestinal problems. But they are very sweet!

oh please get a Cavvy! I can tell you hand on heart I've never met a nasty cav! They are gorgeous dogs and quite laid back after the mad puppy stage. The grooming isn't too much work and you could probably keep on top of that at home or take her? in for a shave off but they do shed.

Cavs are associated with heart problems and are very prone to getting things caught in their ears and getting ear infections. I'm getting a cav when I leave home!

Good luck, I hope your parents say yes and that you find the perfect one for you. I don't have much experience with Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, but I do know that they are very active little dogs. They don't require as much grooming as a cocker, but if your parents don't like shedding, be sure to brush the dog outside every day. They sure are adorable little spaniels.

No shed dogs don't give you very much option. But really, any dog can be shaved and well groomed to reduce shedding.
