I just know I will fall for him, but in my ming I have to have a name

Make sure you ask about health tests. You need to go with an open mind and try not to be swayed by a photo  .

thanks,  I have that on my list of questions, I made the mistake of not doing that with Barney, and luckily he is ok health wise at the moment, no telling what the future will bring obviously

You are insane - if you don't take him, he is gorgeous 

[Jeanette]

How cute - have seen him on ***** - quite cheap if thats such a thing - maybe she doesn't health test them.      He is a gorgeous looking boy 

[debsallen]

she is also KC registered, and recommended by more than one friend,  I will discuss with her the health testing this evening, as you will see from my previoes post on this thread!

Thank you for your comments Jeannette

That's what I thought, they are quite cheap for a 'show type' pup  .

yes, I know, and I will be talking to her tonight asking lots of questions

[emilyjw]

Just to be nosy I had a look too... why would it say No to pedigree when they are KC registered?

[Jane S]

she is also KC registered, and recommended by more than one friend, 

Kc registered really doesn't mean a whole lot - it's a starting point when looking for a puppy but plenty of less reputable breeders KC register their litters so don't take it as proof of anything. The pup looks really sweet but then all Cocker pups look irresistable which is why it's so easy to let heart rule head Good luck anyway and remember if the breeder says the pup has been "vet checked", that's not the same as the parents being tested for hereditary problems (sorry to go on but I know it can be difficult to ask what you want when you've got a cute pup climbing all over you )

What we all need is a take a sensible COL friend along scheme.  Like you say Jane it's so hard remembering what to ask when they are soo darn cute
