Another First Gundog

Due to change in circumstances - any plans for another dog are shelved for now.

Thanks

brittney spaniel.........best of both worlds

Yes - I've met a couple of those and they do seem lovely little dogs

There is one where we live and we've done some control work tgether - the couple who own her are really putting in the work with her and she's a real credit to them.

had to look after two cockers last year as a pal was terminaly ill when he passed on i had the task of re -homing them i ended up taking them to a spanial rescue home so this may be a place to look.ps seen some good x terriers in the beating line.

Thanks. The problem with all the rescues I have looked at is that many won't home to working homes or homes where the dog does not have access to most of the house. I did speak to one rescue who said they get lots of working lines spaniels - but their idea of a 'working' home was agility or flyball! Heaven forbid their little doglets would be used for the task they were bred for

 

I love terriers and small lurchers (been drooling over the pics in the lurcher forum ) - but the most sensible option for me and for my dog is something well-socialised, fairly steady, getting on a bit and used to beating.

 

I might have to give up on the idea and just wait a few years and start with a pup I just thought it was worth investigating.
