Well, actually, I'll be lucky if I'm even alive in 20 years, much less talking about breeding dogs, so I'll just say what I want to now while I can. If cavaliers breeders had been putting the health of the dogs at the top of their wish list for the past 20 years, I doubt they'd be dropping dead at 4 and 5 years old. Many, many people may care about the health of the dogs, but they haven't been that careful about their breeding practices. Myra Savant
