A few weeks ago we had the pleasure of babysitting a 5 month old Cavalier King Charles named Bailey. He belongs to Arielle's boyfriend's family and they needed to go out of town for the weekend for a college trip. I figured, what's one more dog?
I've never had a little dogs but Bailey quickly won me over. Not only is he cute as he can be but he has tons of personality. He certainly can hold his own with the big guys. When he first arrived, my dogs were very curious and Bailey was a little timid. But they warmed to each other quickly and he actually scared Indie when he started to bark! It was pretty hysterical. It wasn't long before Bailey figured out that he was small enough to get into places that my dogs were WAY too big for. So, he became quite the tease for Berkeley and Indie.
Berkeley was interested in the puppy but did not like that another dog in the house meant the attention was spread that much thinner. He was more needy than usual. Indie had the time of his life. I think he thought we'd gotten him a puppy of his very own. And Bailey was just watching the big dogs and following their lead. He and Indie were very rambuncious with each other but they'd get tired and crash hard. This was when Bailey would hop up on the couch and snuggle in with one of us for a snooze. What a little love.
