Two Cockers... what have we done?! :p
« on: September 15, 2014, 03:34:40 PM »
We are soon to be owners of a gorgeous 3 year old working cocker ex-breeding bitch called Kiwi, coming from a reputable breeder, she is a very lovable/loving dog with basic obedience, although not used to being a pet so she will benefit from training/house-training (she is used to living in or out).

We are rehoming her once her pups have all been sold (hopefully at 8 weeks) so we went to see her again yesterday now the pups are 5 weeks old to get to know her a bit better and bond with her a bit

She was in a big room with her puppies in a crate and another 3 year old working cocker bitch and her puppies, so we're playing with Kiwi and giving her attention and the other bitch is happily playing with us and wagging her tail and coming for cuddles as well....

and she's giving my OH the eye.. and sitting on his lap....

meet our TWO cockers, coming home next month!





Kiwi is black and knows her name, Lily is the lemon and doesn't seem to, so we're thinking we could change it to something else? any suggestions? something that would go well with Kiwi and .... :) (not cucumber!)

Training both is going to be fun! :P double trouble!!

Wow, exciting and very brave!  We have litter sisters who are almost two  they have been challenging at times but great fun.  I hope your new additions make you as happy as ours do us.

They are both beautiful. I admire your willpower, I would probably have come away with a puppy or two as well!  ;)

Awww they are lovely. Well done you for resisting the pups. When we picked Bonnie up I would have bought her mum home if the breeder had let me (wish I had because we found out after that she was a back yard breeder  :'().

Hope you have lots of happy times with with Kiwi and ???? Can't think of anything to go with Kiwi, sorry xx

I like Kiwi and Peaches

still I cant wait!!  :D :D :D :D

Congratulations :luv: Surprised this breeder is rehoming both bitches immediately after they have raised their litters though - not something I could do :-\
