Thank you so much to everyone who took the trouble to reply to my query. Now I just have to find a reputable breeder and wait... PS What a helpful site.

Also a pup's temperament is only as good as how well you socialize and train them—a poorly socialised dog with the best of breeding is still a poorly socialized dog and may not therefore have a good temperament.

I realise this, and will be socialising the puppy and taking her to training classes. My former neighbour had a German Shepherd that wasn't trained, at all, and I felt so sorry for that dog They'd shout Come! then whack her when she ignored them. And they left her tied up most of the day. Awful.
Anyway, my husband and I are really looking forward to having another member of the family. It's just a matter of finding her now.

Do liver cockers have to be bred with livers to make livers ?

No, you can get liver from a liver + red mating, we have had a few of them here in Norway.

Other combinations that have given liver is:
black+blue roan
black + orange roan
red + black
red + blue roan

As you see it is not unusually to mix solid and parti in Norway
