We have a young Golden lad coming in 7 months old, castrated and chipped. Has had an op on his bum but waiting for confirmation what this is emptying or removal...
As he is still a baby we dont want him in foster care too long so if you might be interested send me a pm.
Will follow up with more details when I have them.

I'm sure he won't wait too long
hope you find him a great home soon :D

Hello Jim
I would be interested in knowing more about this young chap. We are looking for a chum for our (nearly) 11 year old blue roan male cocker (separate posting - looking for a friend for Joe). We had to have his litter mate PTS 3 weeks ago with an inoperable tumor. We've had some feelers out but no luck as yet. (Not sure I fully understand the comment about the op on the bum however?)
Please let me know what I need to do from your end but we are interested.
Kind regards
Dawnie

He has had problems with his Anal Glands ph34r
Where are you located ?
Jim

Jim
We're located in London but just for the avoidance of doubt I wasn't looking to foster but for permanent rehoming. Not sure on re-reading your mail that we're on the same page? :-\

They're looking for a permanent home quickly as they don't want him in foster long ::)
-
Thanks for the clarification :embarassed: - we would be interested in knowing more though.
-
Just a baby :luv: Hope he finds loving home quickly :blink:

You knew i'd look with that title didn't you Jim :lol2:

Topbarks, just to confirm 4 is the new 3, we have recently joined that club, highly recommend :005:
-
He wont be far from you :lol2:
Just to clarify, he will go into one of our experienced foster homes for assessment but as he is a baby we keen to get him sorted asap. We don't want him to get too settled and have to move again.
We will need to get to the bottom of whats wrong with his bum before he can go anywhere :)
Jim

We fully understand and we would absolutely be prepared to drive up to York with Joe to meet you all and to see if we could take this forward.
Kind regards

Copied from NESSR:
9 months old,,castrated,,vacs up todate,,Mirco chipped,,,,,,,,,,,,,,good off the lead,,,not so good on the lead,,,,,very friendly lad,,,,has lived with older people,,,but he is just a pup,,and will be very happy to live a very active life....

Cute tufty hairdo! :luv:
-
only forum members can view him :-\
-
oh boo. Not sure I'm allowed to post pics myself... shall ask nessr peeps
-
He is a real cutie, I don't think he will wait long for his forever home!
-

:huh: How did you get to see him? I get a login message :'(
-
I joined the forum!
-
Very cute :luv: Not sure if he's a worker though, could be a cross :huh:
-
Very cute :luv: Not sure if he's a worker though, could be a cross :huh:
I'm with you Nic
His coat looks very much like Honey's!
-
Turns out he is a lemon roan, and is 9 months old, Penny please will you merge the two threads if possible, thankyou (Sorry to be a pain :-\ )
-
TBH weve been having the same debate, we think hes show, poss a cross :huh:
-
He could be all show - some show-type orange roans carry very little coat (we've bred several who look quite similar to this boy in the coat department)
-
Thanks for that Jane :D
-
Got all confused there when posts merged, trust me to double up yet again on a rescue dog... His tail looked partially docked which is why i thought worker plus paw hair very short. He's the spit of Krumble apart from longer snout. I never get it right though!
-
His ears are quite high set, his muzzle is fairly long and 'clean' looking and he looks fairly rangy from the photos which made me think he was a cross. He reminds me a bit of Annette's Buddy who is 25% worker 75% show.

Same as Honey

I was going to say he looked more orange roan than lemon roan

Long in the leg/good ground clearance :005: Like he could cover a lot of ground in his stride! It's hard to tell from that photo though, it could be the angle.
-
Oh he's to far away for me, but he's just the right age, I'm keeping my eyes peeled for a pal pal for Coco..
-
oooh he looks like a darker version of Aidee.... :luv:
No I can not have another.......... ph34r
-
He's gorgeous I want him.
-
Do we have any idea why he's been put up for rehoming?
York aint that far away from Midlothian......I'm going to beg OH
-
He's gorgeous I want him.
- ditto!! He's lovely! :luv:
-
Oh he's gorgeous, and so close to us :luv: :luv:
If only i could persuade OH that 3 would be so much better than 2 :-\

-

If Mark is near you then maybe he could offer to do the homecheck, his experience would go a long way in doing a good homecheck?

Fantastic that you are having a boy to come and live with your lovely girlies - I bet they will boss him around like mad. :005:

Wondered where you'd been Joules :005: Yes I think I am totally raving bonkers, but there was always going to be a number 3.I love every bone in their little bodies.I think the rescue route is the right way to do it.By all accounts he is a lovely lad, If I had the land for some Alpacas I'd have some of them too ph34r. I'm sure little miss Ellie will boss the poor lad about, I think he will be quite safe with Sash as long as he doesn't nick her slippers and shoes. will post pics asap.
-
Great news so what are you going to call him :D
-
Great news so what are you going to call him :D
The name he has now is Murphy, I don't know whether if changing it will confuse him, I just don't know I might leave it. what do you all think. already in my mind I have been referring to him as Smurf
-
He's still very young and I don't think changing his name would be a problem. Tilly was 2 when I got her and she was then called Bonnie.
-
Congratulations and well done :luv:

Thanks I'll have to see what he looks like. :lol2:
-
Congratulations, wishing you many years of happiness with him. I like the name Smurf.
-
I think Murphy/Smurf are both great names - still, as you say you will need to see if it suits him ;)
I think you are right - if I ever get a second dog it will be a rescue :D You can certainly get hooked on having animals - I know I am - I'm already thinking about my next ones (chickens) :005:
-
Congratulations. :D
He looks lovely. I bet you just can't wait to get him now. :D
My two girls boss Archie around so I am sure Murphy (or whoever?) will probably get put in his rightful place. :005:
Good Luck. Eagerly awaiting piccies. ;)
-
Congratulations Julie - only one more day to go :luv:
-
Contratulations :luv: That's super news :blink:
-
only one more sleep :D
I think Murphy suited him from the pic, but its gotta feel right with you ;)
-
Yipeee! Roll on Saturday!! :D Looking forward to loads of piccies!!! :luv:
-
Hi there Julie,
I love the name Smurf, I call my Smirnoff, Smirfy, however I think he looks lilke a Murphy ;) Gorgeous little boy, your right your girls will boss him and there will be some mad cocker games to be played as well :luv:
Glad you got my pm's in response to yours, keep us all posted. Totally agree with rescue route and NESSR are fab and have done me proud :D Nat and the Cocker Rockers
-
Congratulations Julie, he is an absolute stunner :luv: :luv: good luck for tomorrow, are you going to take the girls with you, when you pick him up, i can't wait to see the new pictures of him, when he arrives home :D
Stephanie, George and Hamish xxx

No I am not going to take the girls with me. We are going to pick him up about lunch time, then I will drop him off with my daughter at the local country park. I will then come home and pick up my girls and take them down there. I think they will be ok but then get the shock of their lives when we put him in the car to bring him home. I'm going to keep him on a line though in case he does a runner.
-
:D
Congratulations and good luck ;) I'm sure he will fit in beautifully :luv:
-
Hope all goes well :luv:
-
Saturday is here :blink: Look forward to some piccys later :luv:
Enjoy your day ;)

-
me too!
-
oooooooh is the smurfmeister home yet? :luv: :luv:
-
C'mon we need photos! :lol2:
-
Hey your taking you time aren't you.....we need pics :D
-
Well Murphy is home and now called Monty. He is huge. He is 3 times the size of my girls, He is very bouncy, we took them to meet in the park and Ellie told him off. She has now turned into a screaming snarling banshee every time she sees him. Sash has been quite laid back about it.He has a few mats but I don't think I'll be able to lift him on the grooming table. He seems to be a very nice boy and his tail has never stopped wagging. I think he is lemon as the orangy parts of him are lighter than I thought. I think it is going to take a lot to tire him out and he needs training. He has already destroyed a ropey ball thing, he just crunches through toys. Not to sure what to do with Ells she really doesn't seem to like him I hope she settles down. I will upload some photos and get my son to sort the video we took of them meeting, he was as good as gold. I have also videod Ellies reaction to him. He has made himself right at home on the sofa. He does pull on the lead and is very strong. We let him off in the park and he was very good chasing a ball. I'll go see what photos I managed to get and put some on.
-
He sounds like a typical teen! Am sure Ellie will get used to him, just takes time.... he'll learn how to deal wth her too. Looking forward to pictures! Welcome home Monty!!! :luv:
-
OOH Monty! You sound lovely :luv: I am sure Ellie will settle with him after a while. Looking forward to seeing him :luv:
-
OOH Monty! You sound lovely :luv: I am sure Ellie will settle with him after a while. Looking forward to seeing him :luv:
Me too :shades: Sounds like you are in for a busy time ;) :005:
-
Sounds like he's settling in nicely and Ellie will get used to him once she realises he's here to stay. Can't wait to see him.
-
Sally took quite a while to get used to Glen but you saw for yourself how they get on now. She just couldn't tolerate him to begin with
Im sure Monty will settle in just fine. Can't wait to meet him. Don't you dare come up this way and leave again without me getting a cuddle :luv: :luv:
-
Here are a few pictures of our boy:

so come on you experts, is he lemon? orange? show type? worker? or cross/show?
Am i supposed to put his pics in particolours becuase i don't know what he is! :lol2:
-
I know what he is GORGEOUS :luv: :luv:
-
Wow, he is just gorgeous :luv: :luv: What a lovely selection of cocker colours you have now :D
Looking forward to hearing how he settles in with Sash and Ellie ;)
No idea what colour is but he is a boooooootiful boy :luv:
-
so come on you experts, is he lemon? orange? show type? worker? or cross/show?
I've no idea, but whatever he is, he is gorggggeeeooouuusssssss :luv: :luv: :luv:
-
He is absolutely gorjuss and we are so jealous as I sent an email enquiring about him around the time you said you were being home checked. Just glad he got a good home and hope your other girl settles down with him soon.
Beautiful!!!
-
I'm in love :luv: Looks more lemon roan and prob show x worker but doesnt matter cos he's bootiful!
-
worker x show (2nd to last pic he looks very worker). Orange roan and lemon roan to my knowledge are one and the same? The show term is Orange and the working cocker term is Lemon - that's always been my understanding :-\
he looks gorgeous :luv: :luv:
-
Oh he's gorgeous, and he's landed on all four paws with you. Makes me all teary eyed, our Hamster was the same age when we were lucky enough to get him, thanks to auntie Freya :luv:.
Wish you many happy yars together.

yeah I think your right, thought you might be able to tell off that pic. He is lovely though. We have just taken him for a walk to the pizza shop, he walked pretty good, he did pull but then walked better when I checked him. That was till Sue came out with the pizza, he was nearly round her neck. Ellie has been to have a little sniff of him and let him walk past her once, before going back to snarling at him. I'm sure they will be ok cos he's not snarling back he just walks away, He's a good lad.
-
Bah! Who cares what colour or what he is, he is luverrrrley :luv: :luv: I could eat him all up. Lucky you Julie. When are you up to Inverurie again? :005:
-
he's gorgeous Julie :luv:
-
Worker x show was my first impression.
I am dead jealous he is stunning :luv:
Mark
-
Beautiful :luv: What a lucky boy he is :blink:
-
Yes I still think he's definitely a cross. He looks lovely :luv: and I'm glad he's home and settling in well, hopefully Ellie will soon get used to her new brother!
-
Aww I'm sure Ellie will be fine once she gets used to him, he's gorgeous :luv:
-
How did the first night go Julie? :blink:
-
How did the first night go Julie? :blink:
He is such a lovely lad Sheryl, He settled in his crate and I never heard a peep out of him all night. He is really trying to make friends with Ellie he wants to play with her. She is still frightened of him and gving him lip but I have got where they can be together and she is slowly starting to accept him. We have been to the country park this morning that was fine, she told him off once. He wrecked all 3 tennis balls and has destroyed 3 tug ropes in seconds :o can't believe how fast he chews through them. He then found a lab to play with and was in his element.
-
Glad your first night went well, and that this beautiful lad has the fab home he so much deserves. For what it's worth, i think he's an orange roan cross show / worker (think his energy comes from the working bit :005:)
-
Will lock this now he's been rehomed
