Newbie from Scotland
« on: July 09, 2008, 12:16:33 PM »
Hi There just come by to say hello to you all.

I have a 3 year old Blue Roan Male Spaniel called Sox, mad as a hatter  >:D  :lol2: and completely round the bend, we live in the middle of nowhere in the countryside in a wee place called 'Enochdhu'.

Will post some pics of my wee monster when I get in this evening, look forward to chatting with you all.

Jo & Sox

Hi Jensam

Glasgow is not too far from you about an hour and a half from Perth - Do you find that your boy is somewhat hyper!!!!

Welcome Sox! I am in South Lanarkshire and have a wee princess of a cocker who was definitely not blessed in the brains department!  :005: What she lacks in intelligence, she makes up for in cuteness though  :luv:

Hello Ailsa - What breed of Spaniel do you have, she so looks like my boy, and yes I agree with you what they lack for in brains they make up in cuteness, mind you thou he is not thick but I think he plays up on the fact that 'hey if I act thick I can get away with anything' when he puts his mind and backside into gear he can be at times quite clever. But he is def the love of my life  :luv: and a loyal one at that  :D

He was when we first got him, but he has calmed down alot now.  Probably due to his age and food.

I have tried to change his food but he has moments when he eats say Kibble, so I buy a big bag of it and then after a week or so refuses to eat it, so far I am giving him the Butchers tinned meat with ham & chicken which he wolfs down, touch wood he sticks to it!! Is it true that cockers are puppies till the age of 4? - As i I was told that after 4 he would start to calm down!!!
