SIRE: Oahe's Early Rise "Rhys" OFA CHIC # #178590 Rhys is a good hunter, he is not as strong for waterfowl as Bailey, but loves pheasant hunting.

Pups will go home at around 60 days

The breed
|
UPLAND HUNTING
The English Cocker Spaniel has been coined the term the "pocket rocket" as they have an amazing drive in the field. Flushing and Retrieving quail, chukar, grouse & pheasant is what these dogs have been bred for, and their passion for birds & the hunt is absolutely stunning. English Cockers love being out searching for game, and have been a flushing breed gun dog for centuries. |
ADVENTURE DOG & COMPANION
Looking for your fur-ever friend? You will never feel alone again with an English Cocker. This breed is loving and kind. They love cuddling on the couch, as well as being ready for a hike or a trip to the park. A perfect movie night companion for all ages. If you love the outdoors and hiking, these dogs are ready to go. If you enjoy a stroll through town and a stop at the coffee shop, they love to go anywhere with you. |
Our puppies
We breed about two litters per year. if you are considering a puppy, contact us
All of our dogs are tested through EMBARK and are genetically clear for all inheritable genetic diseases in their breed-specific panel through parentage.
What does that mean? We use Embark to genetic test all adult ECS. We use OFA for screening Hips & Patellas as their breed recommends. Our breeding dogs are OFA CHIC registered, which means they have had and passed their breed-recommended health screenings. More information can be found on OUR DOGS.
When you pick your pup up they will have had some exposure to crate training, place boards, some clicker work, and positive reward training. If you are looking to hunt, let us know and they will have some bird exposure.
We give the option for puppy owners to participate in watching the development of the litter and the puppies through photo & video albums we regularly add to the litter, starting around week 5 we have weekly YouTube Lives, and we do Zoom meetings also with puppy owners. We want to be transparent about our process and invite you to be involved in learning more about the litter and then your puppy prior to pick up.
We do Biosensory Training (ENS), and Early Scent Introduction (ESI) with our puppies from days 3-16.
We raise our puppies in the home in a whelping area, and usually, after they are 5 weeks old they transition to a growing pup area with litter box training areas, crates, and enrichment toys.
We practice the Puppy Culture Method in our litters which involves developmental milestone challenges, socialization, and exposure to many different kinds of experiences.
All of our litters are raised in the home, and once puppies are mobile around 5 weeks, they are introduced to our other dogs. These puppies are a part of our home and family. They get to experience farm life as well as some outdoor exposure to our property (depending on the season).
They will have many experiences, be well-handled, and be participants in daily life.
Puppy choice happens around 6 weeks after everyone has a chance to participate in phone calls, Live's, and Zoom calls. Everyone has an opportunity to watch the puppy evaluation videos and photos to get a sense of each puppy in the litter.
Puppies tails are docked to field length and rear dew claws are removed between 3-5 days by our veterinarian.
Our puppies come with AKC registration packets and information through AKC Reunite on how to register their puppy's microchip.
Puppies will be vaccinated at 5 weeks old for Parvo, and at 7 weeks receive their first puppy vaccine and microchip.
We pride ourselves on our puppies, and on giving them a good beginning for their new lives with you.
If you think that the field-bred English Cocker Spaniel may be the breed for you, contact us about our availability.
If you are looking for a pup when we do not have a litter, we may be able to direct you to other breeders who may have litters available in your area.
