Boys VS Girls
For some reason alot of people seem to think "Hey,
I want a female
puppy." I wonder if they ever stop and think
for a second and wonder
why. Males are just as nice as females and are both very lovable. If you are not getting into
breeding then
it shouldn't really matter. Alot of people think a female
is always smaller. Though a male usually seems a bit heavier set,
it
doesn't always mean they are bigger than the females. Cavalier
standards range from between 12lbs-18lbs and for example
sometimes you have a female that
weighs 18lbs and a male that weighs only 12lbs. So there goes that
thought.
If you plan on showing
then you should know that you can't
spay/neuter so you would have to put up with your little female going
into heat which happens twice a year for about 3
weeks each
time. You never have this problem with a male. And of course, if
you are not
showing or breeding then you need to
spay/neuter anyways
and then you don't have this problem with either.
With all this being said, I
hope I haven't discouraged you from wanting
a female because they are sweet too but I just want you to
keep your
options open and consider males as well. Alot of the time,
breeders keep more of their females so it seems to be males that are
available more often so don't look forever for a female when
that
little male will love you just as much........................
