Welcome to the Cocker Spaniel
Club of Queensland Inc website.
Our Club is actively involved in promoting the breed to both show fanciers and
the general public.
The Club also aims to raise the awareness of hereditary and genetic
problems within the breed, and in the past has successfully held Eye Testing
Days that have been well attended by our members.
The Cocker Spaniel Club of Queensland also runs a Rescue service to ensure the
welfare of the breed and many of our Rescue dogs are living grand lives with
their new owners. The Club vaccinates, Vet Checks and de-sexes all Rescue
dogs before they are re-homed. All
financial members of the Club receive a quality bi-monthly newsletter which has
show results, upcoming events, members news, upcoming litters and puppies for
sale, stud dog listings and general articles about the Breed.
The Club holds three shows each year. The first being our Open Show in
February each year. In Queensland, an Open Show is where the judge
officiating is in 'training' and it is our chance as a breed club to give the
'trainee' Judge a quality entry of the breed.
The second show of the year is our Championship Show, traditionally held in July
each year and the third another Championship Show held in December each year, where the Club endeavours to contract a Breed Specialist Judge to
officiate. We have in the past engaged the services of Local, Interstate
and International Judges for our Championship Shows with great success and
support with large entries.
The Cocker Spaniel Club of Queensland Inc is also a proud member of the National
Cocker Spaniel Council of Australia since it was formed in 1985. National
Cocker Spaniel Specialty Shows have been held since 1985 (the first being held
in Melbourne) and we have proudly hosted the National Specialty in Queensland, with great
success, firstly in 1994 and again in 2000.
Please take the time to look around our website. We hope to continue
to update the site regularly to keep you up to date with our club and all
it's functions and of course tips on our lovely breed.
