We are looking at getting a young cavalier, nearly 1 year old from his breeder
he is being sold due to excessive flecking which makes him unsuitable as a showdog any more
His lifestyle currently is crated with 2 other male cavs inside with time a couple of times per day in a large exercise outdoor area
He has been show at dog shows and had a little training for same
He is one of about 12 Cavs at the kennels so hasn't had a huge amount of individual human contact
He is a very outgoing friendly little guy, came and had cuddles with all of us then went off exploring when we visited
Wondering how he might settle into a family home where he is the only dog
Would be for a gentle but active 9 year old boy
I am home most of the week but will be working at least 5 hours one day
We are a busy family, out and about alot, he could come to some but not all outings
We have horses so busy outside with them
we have about 1/2 acre securely fenced on a bigger lifestyle property
have read that Cav's should only be left alone for max 30 minutes, this won't be realsitic with our busy lifestyle
Any thoughts?
