Charlie




We got a puppy! My little dream puppy! For the past couple years I have been addicted to looking on Craigslist at the pet section. I always type in Cavalier and another local shelter that list the status of all their animals. I have sent hundreds of postings to Joey over the years always stuck on Roxy needing a friend. Well, 2 1/2 weeks ago I saw an add for a group of rescued cavaliers. Whether Joey was joking or not, he convinced me to contact the lady. The next thing I know I am driving up to Oklahoma to meet 2 male Cavalier King Charles puppies. I sat with the lady at the Casino gas station for over an hour debating which puppy I wanted to take home. She was trying to tell me to just call Joey and say "Surprise it's twins!!!"... but my brain did kick in and I knew better then that. In the end I decided to go with the shy little boy with the adorable expressive eyes. It was love at first site! Plus I thought he would be less likely to make Cowboy (the cat) mad! So far Charlie is settling in great! He even got to meet Stephanie and Paul's son Wesley (at 3 weeks old). He didn't bother him at all! Roxy on the other hand was jumping up on Paul trying to figure out what the heck that lump in his arms was! (Yes, Roxy the one who is terrified of men!) I think Charlie will be the perfect fit for our family!
