Hi Mike and Chester welcome to COL.

I have a 3 year old blue roan called Mya :P .

If you have a look in the grooming thread you might find some photos of what a groomed cocker looks like. Mya doesn't look like that for long, she loves mud and water so I've got no chance of a well groomed dog.

Chester must look like a furry bear if this his first time being groomed.
Photos asap.

Hi and welcome to COL! A friendly and helpful place to be!

I know I've seen some photos in the gallery of groomed cockers, so a bit of a search through there will definitely yield fruit!

:D Welcome Mike and Chester  :D

The pic you want would all depend of the type of look you want for your cocker Mike, some like a natural long coat that is handstripped or coat kinged and others like a shorter easier to manage coat using clippers. (the majority prefer to handstrip)

You'd probably be better browsing through the gallery and looking for the type of look you want, although be warned you'll be spoiled for choice in there, there are so many beautiful cockers with stunning coats  :D

Enjoy the site  :D

:P Hiya and welcome to COL, ive also got a red/golden cocker whos 16 months called Bailey, and i too couldn't imagine life without him, my husband and the boys feel the same. There is never a dull moment with a cocker in your house. :P  When i have Bailey groomed i tell the groomer i want him to look like a show dog ( she grooms the breeders dogs and he shows them) however he doesn't look like it for long. :P  Hope you enjoy the site. :P

Hi and welcome to COL

Our new boy is a 15 week old blue roan, called Buddy. We are enjoying him (most of the time!)

COL is a fantastic resource for advice, sympathy and a good laugh.

See you around :P

Go to the puppies section of the gallery and click on the arrow to the right of 'admin'options' in the top right, click add photo then a box will appear. Click 'browse' and all being well the photos you've uploaded will appear in a box, choose the one you want then press open, the file name will appear next to the word 'browse'. Type your caption in the caption bit, type your name in the author bit, press 'ok' then it should load onto the puppies page, another box will appear, press 'ok', then it's done  :D .
