"Is that ten breeding bitches with no hip scores? 16 bitches in total
All of our working cocker spaniel breeding bitches are carefully selected for temperament and beauty. Most of them we have been re-homed but I wouldn't say rescued, at about a year old from either game keepers or family homes that didn't have enough time or the right facilities for them.... but we have."
- Make your minds up! I also have an issue with breeding from rescues/rehomes.
Not the worst I've seen in terms of working and health testing but they've got a lottttttt of dogs and I'd love to be convinced that it's not a commercial operation when pups are £850 a pop. My young dog from parents who've competed at world championship level, from five gens of health tested parents, was €500 at 14 weeks.

Not to mention that all "purebred" stock must be registered with the Kennel Club or Dog Lovers!
At least three known puppy farms on the breeders list.
