    I was going to say My Cavy Angels, but I see someone already did.

    I've always heard wonderful things about them as well. Did you run through a breed selector to see how they come up for you, based on your lifestyle and situation and all? You can google: dog breed selector
    Iams and Animal Planet each have one.

    You can also check with the breed club, they usually have a page on the web site along the lines of "is this breed right for you?"

    Maybe search for a cavy forum and check things out there? I have had lots of help and info from the bichon forums I am on!

    Good luck!

    They are really good companions. I've never met one that wasn't sweet. There was a pair at a pet resort that I worked at that had some "issues" but it was 100% the owners' problem, not the dogs'. They seem to be relatively low maintenance, but you just have to watch their weight, and keep them groomed. I've seen many that were overweight. I think the breed is lovely, though.

    The breeder we got Zoee from, her daughter has a Cavy. She is teeny tiny too. A girl I used to work with has one and she is so sweet. She got a second one but he had seizures. They were told the seizures weren't often but he had about 5 the first day they had him. My friend couldn't handle it. Which I don't blame her. Especially since she was told they weren't frequent.

    Good luck!!
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    I'm mycavvyangels's groomer :P

    They are gorgeous dogs, I've never ever met a nasty cavalier. The grooming all depends on the dog, I mean like buddy and Rosie grow like crazy!! They have really thick coats which are kept long and brushed out and they only come in for a tidy up around the edges really.
    Emily and Roxie are the complete opposite, they have the tiniest bit of hair taken off and that lasts them for months and months lol, It all depends really on the dog :P
