Glad to see a post from an owner who wants all this Rage syndrome in solid Cockers brought into the open.It is easier to go with the flow sometimes and try to forget there are issues about solid Cockers. Rage in a dog,of any breed is a terrible thing to live through,and it is the responsibility of the Breeders of solid Cockers in this instance,to find out where they are going wrong in their breeding.This after all is the Behaviour forum for Cocker owners and breeders?.
Before I had a Rage Cocker dog I thought (being a dog owner,breeder and lover of Gundogs for 50 years) - that this so called rage thing must be that these owners were just not firm enough.Ha!! How wrong I was to think this, as anyone owning a rage dog will tell you. A Dominanct dog and a Rage dog are 2 different things entirely.
