Split off into own thread! 
In life, it is important to know when to stop arguing with people and simply let them be wrong.

Re: American Cocker retrieving
What a game little dog. Was it a seen, memory or a blind retrieve? I always thought that the only thing that American cockers retrieved were budgies from behind sofas, glad to be proved wrong in his case.

Nice to see, i've had one at a course and it was nothing wrong with it at all aside the coat making it difficult for him, very alert and eager little boy as this one seem to be.

Hi Pam nice to see you and Gumbo on here.
Re: American Cocker retrieving
Extraordinary for an American cocker - who's training that dog, Pam, and by what methods? Congratulations to all involved - very nice work! A/V trials are next, one would hope - surely an American cocker would be eligible?
