Title: Hello!
Post by: SammyB on February 03, 2004, 05:05:12 PM: Hello! I'm new here and whilst I don't have a cocker at the moment I grew up with a gorgeous orange and white one called Sunny! He joined our family when I was two and he very sadly passed away when he was fifteen years old eight and a half years ago now. He was a wonderful dog, so kind and gentle and I'll always miss him.

I would dearly love a dog, although I work full time at the moment so it's not really possible. If my husband starts working from home though, which might be possible soon (he's communting for about four hours a day at the moment) then we will certainly love a dog to join our little family and it will have to be a cocker!

Sunny's pedigree name was Sunglint of Haradwaithe and I was just wondering if anyone has heard of this name or knows of any other Haradwaithe's?

Anyway, it's great to find such a lovely forum, and I hope I'll be able to join in in some of your discussions properly if and when I get my own cocker!

Sorry for rambling!

Welcome to COL. Hope you are able to achieve your dream and get another cocker - they are the perfect addition to any household I think :D I'm also working on the idea of working from home(so I can add more to my brood :wink: ) so hope that all goes to plan for you.

Good luck with your search when the time comes

It's so good to see many lovely cocker faces again! I think I might do that search for Haradwaithe and see if I can find any of Sunny's relatives. I shall certainly be joining in here and I hope I'll be able to ask your advice when the time comes for me to be able to have another cocker.

Thanks,
