Title: New here, waiting for our cocker
Post by: shonajoy on October 24, 2003, 08:54:27 AM: Hi there, we have an orange roan cocker coming to us next month. We are in Scotland, my name is Shona and I'm a stay at home mum with thee kids, aged 15,9, and 8.

We have been planning on getting a dog for two years now, and are all very excited. We still have to find a name for him though, we can't decide.

Anyway, nice to find such a cocker mad place, I feel at home! ;D

Good luck with the names, its like choosing baby names all over again, hubbie and I went round in circles chosing Indies name and then we just let the kids decide.

Looking forward to meeting your new little pup.

It is certainly the place to be for information when you get your baby home.

Wishing you lots of joy with him, whatever you decide to call him.

I'm sure you will find this site very informative and I can't wait to see some pics of your new pup. The month of waiting will be slow at first but then it will fly past.

The kids want to call him Indy after indiana jones, or Cosmo after I don't know what! :o

I noticed there is an Indie here already!
It's lovely to see all your babies, all different colours, beautiful. I hope the next month does fly past, we just can't wait, and as every day goes by I'm spending more and more in that darn pet shop, lol.

Shona ;D

Welcome to COL. We are a friendly bunch generally. A bit like our fave breed, mad, soft as muck, soppy to the extreme, cuddly and game for a laugh ;D but watch us fight over our fave thing ;D only joking.

You'll have such a great time when you get your new pup. I have a Blue boy and an Orange boy. Both very very different. Do let us have pic's when you can.

We have a blue girl, and were quite lucky in getting her - only had to wait a week!! ;D

You're month will be up sooner than you think - and as for the pet shop spending sprees .. that doesn't stop when you get them ... as my credit card can testify ::) ::)

Hi and welcome to COL

I just saw this. Indy, what a perfect name for a cocker! ;D ;D ;D.
Our Indy is also named after indiana Jones, but she's a girl...... ::) We just thought the name was cool though! (and I fancy Harrison Ford in that role ;))

Post by: Anonymous on October 31, 2003, 10:17:10 AM: Wow all these Indies or Indy's ;) Kids chose "Indie" as a name for our baby but not cos of Indianna Jones, they wanted to call her INDIGO cos of the colouring, shes a blue roan, but we thought that was a bit too long, so she got INDIE instead ;D It is a good name 8)
