Quick intro from me! :D
« on: July 11, 2006, 02:06:17 PM »
Hi everyone, I'm Adele from Derbyshire!

Currenty researching a new family pet, well ok mainly a Cocker Spaniel!  :005: We had border collies when I was a kid but I've not had a dog as an adult. Now the kids are getting bigger and less dependent on me I am hoping to introduce a little puppy to the house!  :luv:

I've done a bit of reading so far and I am probably more confused then anything by some things so thought I'd better find an online community to come and chat to!  :lol:

Speak soon!  ;)

Hi and welcome to COL  :D

I have a 6 and a half month old blue roan working cocker called Alfie who is mad but I love him  :luv:

You're definitely in the right place for cocker advice here! It's good that you're doing lots of research before taking the plunge, there's a lot to think about!

Thank you everyone! The site is proving to be a fantastic research tool! I've also been out this afternoon and bought 2 books about Cockers along with the Dog Listener book! LOL! I originally wanted a golden bitch (hence the name) but from my research thus far I think I'll be staying away from solid's due to the rage syndrome!  :-\ They are all so beautiful though it's hard to make a final decision and I'm in no rush!  :lol:

Hello and Welcome!

Don't believe all you read about rage in solids  ;). Rage is an extremely rare condition and most reputable breeders are confident their lines will produce puppies of sound temperament (sp?).

Nervous and agressive dogs sometimes get mis-labelled as having rage when they don't....most of what you read is rubbish!!

Don't let this decide the colour of your puppy! Let the search for a reputable breeder help you do that. In the end we all want a healthy happy well adjusted pup - colour comes second...!!  :D

Been lurking around on the boards and posting here and there but fingers crossed things are going well for my hunt for my new baby! Will post in a different place though rather than posting here!  :lol:

PS Lumi yes I love Angel!!!!  :005:
