What is your Dogs name?
Cooper

Any nicknames?
Coops, Little Bugger

What breed is your pup?
Cocker spaniel (show type)

How old is s/he?
4 months

What made you choose your dog? How did they find their way into your family?
Our last dog was a Newfie X GSD, he died earlier this year sadly. We were desperate for another dog, and whilst usually big dog people, we decided that a medium sized dog would be better suited to our current setup. We wanted a breed that was happy go lucky, that would be good with people of all ages (we have 4 year old twins), could keep up on long walks round the woods and days out, but wasn't impossible to tire out and would happily chill for a snuggle on the couch. Husband suggested cocker spaniel, and here he is 🙂

What is your pups favourite toy?
A tuggy ferret.

Favourite treat?
Pigs ears

Doggy preference - Long walk or snuggle on couch?
Hes only young so can't have long walks yet, but I suspect he'll be a long walk kinda dog when he's fully grown. Though he does love snuggles on the couch too!

What is your pup afraid of?
Horses!

Favourite memory with your pup?
The day we brought him home, we picked him up in Wales and drove all the way home to Scotland with him snuggled on my lap.

And finally, would you ever get another dog?
Definitely.

He’s not snuggly, affectionate, but not snuggly, but he has health issues so can’t do long walks either, so...

Training session or scent games Smile just to be awkward, lol

What is your pup afraid of?

The world tbh Sad

He’s really reactive to lots of things.

Favourite memory with your pup?

Hmm, oh, we took him on holiday about 4 years ago to a cottage in the middle of nowhere and it was so nice to be able to just have him out offlead and enjoying himself without worrying about meeting anything he doesn’t like.

And finally, would you ever get another dog?

Always, the longest I’ve been without one is 2 years where my work hours didn’t really suit getting one. (After the previous one died)

Lets hope the op isn't able to do an advanced search, figure out where you live or track you down on Facebook, or figure out your identity and then nick your dog!!

Good luck to anyone wanting to try and steal a 38kg dog who has a meltdown if anyone but us tries to touch him... or if he thinks they look like they might touch him...or sometimes just look at him...

Favourite memory with your pup?
when he’d rest his head on my bump when i was pregnant and then look up quizzically when the baby kicked. when the baby was born he’d sit beside the baby’s moses basket day and night and as soon as the baby started to stir he’d start whining and run over to me.

And finally, would you ever get another dog?
probably not. two cats and a dog is enough for us.
