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!
