Mrs torn socks ,thanx for the @ yr experiances,may be dd has just the thing for u just read yr other thread . Not having much luck r u u can buy concorete water bowls ,but other alternative is as suggested in previous posts ...A gal bucket dug into ground & maybe cemented in !!!!or a large garden water feature type bowl . good luck will be waiting with baited breath for updates

My *p*didnt stand for puking

just what every mum wants ,couldnt BEAR not to have a couple.

depends on the mother ,if she knows whats she doing I leave her to it, but take bub of her as soon as detatched ,give a good rub while checking all other things then return to muma ,if muma to slow i step in & tear (if i can)or cut cord ,never bothered to tie off, no problems there

Heat pads /hot water bottols ,heater if its cold & warm small towels( to rub yr bubs with when first born ,) Also a bucket (comes in handy if u need to *P*during the whelping

Hi Lyndsey ,my foundation bitch was 4 when se had her first litter ,as long as the bich is in good health I personally dont think 4-5 is to old BUT please if its yr first litter, dont even think about having 2 @ the same time

Im finding it hard atm to write the words heart dog.for me there are no words that can discribe the love ,passion,togetherness & pride , ;its as if, even though mine has gone ,hes still with me in everything I do & gives me the reason to carry on .& share my love with those still here with me RIP my darling Huckie . ,

Another beautiful cocker the angels needed so sorry for yr loss but has another angel to watch over all that have passed , hugs to u & watch over yr loved ones Hooley .

HI,If u dont do soething about it ,for example .dry the ears or make him wear a snood ,when eating,it could develope into a fungal problam .

my heart goes out to u ,having experianced a young boy with suspected epilepsy , my huckie was only 18mnths old when he had the first of many episodes, the last few left him a competley changed dog . it was like lights on nobody home . there is medication that can sometimescontroll this,but it is expensive & an ongoing process . I know $$$$dont count when it comes to our dogs ,but i feel personally one has to look @ the Quality of life .

congratulations ,dosnt it just warm the heart to see the joy your love /care & dedication to yr breeding brings to new owners . makes all the* drama* we as breeder go through worth it imo .

what is the difference between a furminator and a coat king? Just my personal results with cockers...... but the furminator merly skimmed the surface, where as the coat king takes out all the dead coat & is designed to only remove that .I can obtain coat kings cheaply, ;) if u r interested fel free to pm me .

i wasnt inpressed with the furminator on my cockers much prefere a coat king .

:D So very sad ,what a great fight u all put up ,but seems Reg was so special, the angels needed him to be with all our other special ones that r waiting @ the bridge rest easy now Reg knowing you are a brave warrior ,Watch over yr loved ones . A friend in need, is a friend indeed hugs to all

just checking for more good news ,fight the good fight reg

thanx for the update ig keep on fighting u brave warrriors

couldnt get u of my mind last nite ,was dreading looking for latest in yr post, but praises be he is still with us & now with his owner . You have done a wonderful job ,trusting yr loving care will bring Reg a full recovery .

Even though he has had kc vacination ,there r some strains it dosnt cover ,so possibly kc ,keep him away from other dogs ,till u r sure , try giving him some honey diluted in hot water ,@ room temp to ease the cough .

thoughts r with you ,healing vibes & prayers coming 2 u both
