Missy (2) (On Trial 21/1/13)

Missy is an 18 month old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel X Staffy. She is great with children, and good with other dogs. She is quiet, not a barker. Missy is happy to spend time outside when no one is home but she likes to be inside with the family when people are home.

She is an unusual but adorable breed mix. She has the short hair of a Staffy but the floppy ears, soft face and smaller size of a Cavalier.

Missy enjoys chewing on sticks, plastic bottles and toys if you leave them in the yard for her. She likes children. She will initially jump up for a pat but quickly settles down and will just lay next to them. With a little training she could easily be taught not to jump. She currently lives with large dogs and loves them. I am not sure about cats and other pets as she has never been near them. Missy is fairly well housetrained. \ She sleeps in the laundry in her bed and has no accidents. She goes out of her own accord as soon as you open the door. She is not a fussy eater, she eats dry food pasta rice chicken.

Missy is very playful with the other dogs, running around with them and having a great time. She is not an excessive barker. If she is outside she will bark if a stranger comes in her yard. If she is inside she doesn't bark at all. She has no problem being left alone.

Missy is very affectionate just wants cuddles and to please you. She would suit either a family with children, a couple, or even a single person. So long as they give her the love and company she deserves. She is a loving, gentle little girl.
