A reputable breeder is
someone who breeds for the betterment of the breed, screens for genetic
problems before breeding, ensures proper
temperament and makes a lifelong commitment to all of the dogs they produce,
taking them back if it becomes necessary. The quality and care of their own
dogs is reflected in the beauty of the puppies they produce.
Breeding for the
betterment of the breed includes health testing, ensuring proper
temperaments, proper socialization, care and training, and researching
pedigrees to produce the best possible representative of the breed.
Good temperament and
socialization go hand in hand.
Therefore, there is no excuse for breeding to a dog with a poor temperament.
Temperament is influenced by environmental as well as the genetic
background. For this reason, proper temperament and socialization of the
parents and the puppies play an important part in developing a good
personality.
Proper care is also
important. Good nutrition, cleanliness, regular bathing and grooming, all
play a very important part in the health and well being of the parents and
puppies. All of these things should be important to you, as a prospective
Cocker Spaniel owner.
By purchasing a Cocker
Spaniel from a reputable breeder, you will know that someone cared enough to
produce a dog who's parents are as free as possible of most known genetic
problems, who's temperament is merry and loving, and know that the breeder
takes pride in their dogs by keeping them clean, healthy and happy.
