The
ownership of a Cocker Spaniel, like any pet is a serious responsibility
that requires a long term commitment. It is the goal of C'lestial Cockers
to be sure that this responsibility, as well as the financial and psychological
needs of each Cocker be met in its new home. This
questionaire has been designed to help prospective Cocker Spaniel owners
address the issues that would directly affect their home and its suitability
for a Cocker as well as aiding us in evaluation for the right dog to the
right home.
I
have most all colors listed below for your preferences, however, I do not
breed all of the colors listed. If
I do not have anything you may be interested in, you may still fill out
the form and I will try to direct you to other responsible Cocker breeders
who may help. I
am not a broker, nor get any gain from any of these breeders, I just try
and help breeders and potential owners get together. I
have no knowledge or responsibility after you and another breeder have
contacted each other.:-)
