Hello! - Pics added! Getting him tonight!
« on: April 09, 2010, 07:03:29 PM »
Just thought i'd introduce myself, i'm Grace and im from presteigne, powys. I have been thinking about getting a cocker spaniel for a while now and we have finally found one! :D A friend of the family has a cousin that breeds show types of cocker spaniels and i am going to see an orange roan male pup on thursday (cant wait!!). He will be ready to go to his new home that weekend aswell. I already have an 7 year old golden lab who is pretty much perfect and i'm sure he'll love his new friend! Also have 5 chickens in the back garden who i'm sure will look forward to another friend!

Hello and welcome to COL :D

I have an orange roan too, William, who is nearly 6 years old. I also have 10 month blue roan and tan Louis.

Have you thought of any names yet?

Welcome!  I've found this site invaluable as a new cocker owner and it's so addictive you'll be logging on every day for your daily fix!  :005:

Hi Grace

Love the pictures - your Lab looks a real gentle boy.  I've a 15month light blue roan show cocker, Maggie. Love to see some pics of your little one when you get him :)
