Hi and welcome to COL. I wasn't offended to your previous title either, I took it to mean that although you are new, you know what you are doing with dogs, whereas a lot of people join to learn how to understand their dogs.
I'm Fiona, I live in Glasgow with puppy Duggie, a show type, who is 12 weeks. He's been learning his basic commands since day 1, but in a fun way with lots of praise and cuddles, he has no idea that he's training!
I recently lost my first boy Gari, he was a rescue and came mostly trained, apart from recall and liking other dogs, but he got there and was a great dog.
I'm just about to start fostering 2 ex-workers, 1 is a Cocker, and 1 a Lab, they haven't had a good life, so they'll just be getting lots of TLC.
I hope you enjoy it here, I look forward to seeing the photos, and I bet once you get your Cocker, you will never look back!
