Yes I’ve got one,they are good in any cover,wet weather up to the tits in mud not bother them,today I’ve had mine bumping rabbits off 3-4 inch of corn today.cockers can be strange dogs they are a little odd at times but get one with a good working pedigree and you won’t go to far wrong,I am on my second and they have both been loyal dogs,the one I have now is an excellent guard house dog, training is the key to a good cocker as without it they can be a pain.

A cocker that couldn’t do a full days work,they must have been show bred or ill, cockers can work all day & everyday, pound for pound there’s not a stronger dog,my last cocker who was on the big side for a cocker he could get over a 5ft dry stone wall with a large hare.

My mate is breeding his working cocker bitch to a ftch sire.he said if there's 8 in the litter he'll gift me one.

Do cockers have that many usually.?

6 I would say is average but I’ve heard of 10 so fingers crossed.ftch x working dog is a good combination as too much ftch in the pedigree can make them harder to handle for what you want,what I will say is don’t bother getting one even if it’s free unless you are going to put the time in leaning it the basics or it will be three fields away hunting for its self.

The bitch he has is all ftch in her ped.from peter jones of mezzaderwin.he wants to get into trailing next year so there pretty well bred already.l have a couple of people i could go to if any problems with training.

Your bitch Probably killed a litter of cubs then came away, get yourself a bellman if your running her loose through out the summer, lots of cubs around :thumbs:

I can remember reading posts on here about being careful with terriers as there was always a chance that a dog could drop in unexpectedly i also remember thinking that'll never happen to me.... i look a bit silly now to say the least. atb.
