I used to shoot a bit but that was in the past a long time ago, we got charlie mostly as a pet but we have found she need lots of exercise so im getting fitter by the day.

They certainly do have some energy to burn off. Has your dog been docked?

One of the cockers on our shoot wasn't docked and the mess she was in at the end was something else. Because cockers (and springers) like to run through hedges or in amongst them their tails get snagged and end up quite bloody at times. Some vets will even refuse to dock a cocker.

We took Charlie to puppy classes of sorts it was more getting her to interact with other puppies and make sure there were no problems with her behaviour.
We do not plan any formal training, we are doing that ourselves, we have allready reached the sit/stay/fetch/ stage.
I feel some dogs are over trained and do what they are told when told to do so and they seem to lose some of there charecter,I want a dog that a bit stupid sometimes, just like me |

We started with Science Plan Puppy food but she also seemed to become bored of that.
We have just started her on James Wellbeloved Lamb and rice puppy food, she likes it.
