It’s been 6 months now since our sweet Maddi left us.  It hurt so bad, I thought I’d never get another dog. Lately it just seemed like Oliver needed some company, and the thought of having another girl around became a little more appealing.  My husband and I decided to get a rescue.  Oliver had been our rescue 8 years ago, and he has been a joy to us.  We were looking for a little girl Cavalier around 6 years old.  I fell in love with a photo of a girl named Claire.  The rescue group told me I had a chance of getting her, although there were several requests for her.  I waited and waited to hear back about Claire, or any dog for that matter.  Well, it’s been over a month.  So…while searching online, I found a site for Cavalier puppies.  And, guess what!  In 3 more days, a puppy named Buttercup is flying in from Missouri to us, her forever home.  I am so excited!  We’ve already changed her name to Sadie.  She’s just 8 weeks old and she’s a ruby colored Cavalier King Charles Spaniel.  She has white markings on her face, chest, and the tips of her feet and tail.  Maddi was black, tan, and white, called tri-color.  Oliver is a Blenheim, tan and white.  There is one other color for Cavaliers, that is black and tan.  Here are some photos of Sadie.  Isn’t she adorable?
