In ref to the half worker X half show .....I can't better the excellent advice & opinions already given & you know, as harsh it may sound, it really is good advice that is well worth taking on-board
& in ref to the breeding because your girl is so lovely & you'd like her to have pups etc .... I can answer that from experience as I did just the same, some 6 years ago. All the relevant tests done, support of an experienced breeder & our vet etc etc & did everything as we should but .....
things didn't quite turn out as we had imagined - we couldn't of forseen it & is put down to 'one of those things' by specialists & professionals alike ...& there are plenty more 'one of those things' waiting to happen at any given opportunity ..... breeding is the risk you take & only worth undertaking with knowledge & experience.. There is also a chance you could lose your lovely girl during/after whelp ...a very slim chance but a chance non the less - this has to be acknowledged when considering breeding & you have to be clear in your mind if losing her would be worth the risk
These are a couple of links to threads that refer back to our girl Tinkerbelle .... a pup that was born with 'one of those things' that can go wrong

Hope all these anti breeding replies haven't offended or upset you at all - they aren't meant to but are meant to help you see 'the other side' to breeding that sadly, we have knowledge of & share it with you to help you make a balanced decision
P.S. photos of cockers are almost compulsory on here
...would love to see pics of your little girl
