i have always been open to what people said, or i wouldnt have bothered my backside to ask in the first place, and i have chatted long and hard to different people, i totally object to people saying i made my mind up beforehand and not listened, laura knows for one, as i told her i had discussions with the family,( i have four adults in the home, and i am at home all day,)and i also have chatted to people with three and sometimes more cockers, and the breeder, the welfare has and is the most important of any decision, i made, and some letters have insinuated to my mind anyway that elmo is neglected in this decision, or in the future with this decision, have i got to agree with all of you, is it wrong to do what i think is right or i can achieve, as i joined with elmo and then went onto discuss two more puppies i thought it was fairly obvious, i am sorry if this sounds angry, but i feel some comments were rather personal, other than helpfull. i feel very angry and sad that i have to write this in the first place to defend myself and my actions, why have others managed this successfully? none of you know my situation or me, or the breeder, i asked for opionions on the cockers eg, their relationship to each other including being aggressive etc, not on whats in my own mind. :x
PS i said some dogs scard of not all, and i said why, but he is a lot better now due to hard work on my part
