v-max 2 Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 Hi im not that well up on cockers as in the show type & i have people at me who own & work ESS dogs. The sons bought there mum a cocker & it is a show cocker but looks like a working cocker other than the head shape & dose seem to be quite a worker from what i saw of her. I have a working black cocker dog with 41 FTCH in 5 gen pedigree & they wish to use my dog but im unsure on mixing the show with working. Im not taking a pup & my dog is eye tested & i have told them to get there bitch done too & a glacoma test. Is ther any thing to look out for or should they not be mixed info required please.

activeviii 8 Posted April 10, 2010 Report Share Posted April 10, 2010 i had the same sort of problem last year. I have a good working lad, all black cocker with a lot of field trial in his line. i was asked if i would allow him on a 50/50 show/working cocker bitch. after a little thought about it and a chat with my lads breeder, i decided not to wreck his blood lines and to keep them pure to the working breed so i have turned down the offers.

kiwi 4 Posted April 11, 2010 Report Share Posted April 11, 2010 don't cross the lines mate, show cockers have nothing to offer the working lines. Quote Link to post
