Hi, from a newbie
« on: April 13, 2008, 09:34:44 PM »
Hi all, my name is Vikki I have a wonderful black and tan cocker named Baja, he is now 10 months. When we got him at 8 weeks it was the best day of our lives, he has made each and every day more enjoyable and has given my husband a soft side! The poor thing is just recovering from his castration that he had on Thursday. I say recovering.....running round like a mad thing desperate to be let off his lead so he can run for the hills!!!! I look forward to reading about all your advice, stories, trials and tribulations!

That's really sweet and so unusual. There is a simple solution to your dilemma, you're allowed 4 pics so pick 4!! There is info how to do it on the help pages.

Because he was castrated on Thursday should I still be worrying about him jumping about and running round the garden like a race horse? He only has 2 stitches and is great at wearing the lampshade, but I still have a worry something will go wrong......over protective?

everyone we meet remarks on his colours, but being our first dog and first cocker we didnt know if this was a common colour or not?
