WhyWeBreed

You ask,Why do you breed Cockers? I hope that by reading this you will better
understand why.

I breed to create the ultimate dog. One that is healthy, loving, smart, and yes beautiful. I
health test every dog in my breeding program to try my best to make healthy puppies that
will live a long full life by your side. No, there is no guarantee that he will never get sick but
I have done my best to try to prevent this. Loving so they will not be of bad temperament
and unpredictable like puppy mill and backyard breeders puppies are. Yes Cockers have
gotten a reputation for being nasty, this is due to poor breeding. I have only selected those
that show the best temperaments. Smart, face it who doesn't want a smart dog. They are
easy to train and eager to please,at least most of the time. LOL They have to be smart to
do what their ancestors were bred to do. Last but not least,beauty. I'm sure no one will
ever tell me, "I want the ugliest one in the litter." Everyone falls in love with a Cockers
beauty. Who can look into those eyes and not melt and those ears are just icing on the
cake in my humble opinion. LOL

I breed for you, the pet owner. Let's face it, not every dog in a littler will make it as a
show dog. I select the dogs that I think will make it and try to place them in show homes,
but the truth is, they are only 8-9 weeks old when this decision is made. It's hard to know
who's bite may go off, who will be too short or too tall, or even not like the show ring and
do poorly. None of these things will make them any less of a pet, just not the ultimate
show dog. Who knows, you probably will end up with the one I should have kept. LOL

I also breed for the shear joy of raising a litter of puppies. Watching them go from squirmy
little blobs to beautiful, happy puppies. I take care to make sure each one gets the best of
everything. I took the time to check to make sure that their parents don't have any harmful
genetic defects that they could get. I have socialized them around children, two live right in
my own home. I have taken them to the vet to make sure they are healthy and given them
all of their shots. I have raised them in my own home. They were whelped in my bedroom
then joined the family downstairs when it was safe for them.

I know what it is like to be a dedicated pet owner. I have owned 7 pet only dogs before I
became a breeder. I have worked at a dog trainers and worked in the kennel as well as
dog grooming. I have spent thousands of dollars in one clip many times over. Taking care
of my pets threw different illnesses. I have dealt with demo deictic mange, stomach
cancer, brain tumor, autoimmune disease, hip surgery, and even bad temperament. I know
what it's like to have to let your dog cross over the rainbows bridge and hold them in your
arms the whole way threw. I know that if something does go wrong, I can help you threw
it for I have been there myself. I hope you never have to deal with any of these things but
if you do, I will be there with you every step of the way.

So know this, I am dedicated to breeding the best dogs that I possibly can. I have given
them lots of love and care. I hope you will to. There is no such thing as "just a dog". They
are loving feeling parts of our family.
