Your friend will be seeing my German dog after the season closes and I quit chasing birds long enough to go have a catchup so I would just ask that you reserve judgement until then. He won't be making any puppies in the meantime anyway.

Then no issue, and honestly, apart from a totally different opinion on stuff than you. I have NOTHING against you whatsoever. Good luck and God Speed.

Seriously RC, no ill will. I applaud your efforts, we just see the world different but our passion is the same. Keep it up.

I gave my opinion early on because my experience with GWP's and most all breeds of dogs is that when working blood from their country of origin is brought in it is better than what is here... usually... hasn;t applied to springers so far, well not for 25 years but we keep trying.... however... A friend who I rate very highly saw my recommendation and gave his view. he is the most respected dog person I know and I respect his opinion on that basis i changed mine and have to be fair and say my first recommendation was, based on that wrong. My comment "Buyer Beware" was not intended as a slight, b ut more a warning to do your homework, make sure you are getting what you want. There are several suggestions on here, no one takes my word as gospel and they will make their own choices.

Contrary to how you see it Ryan, because we have VERY different views on things, does mean we have to be at odds. I'd still drink a beer with you and you might find interesting what I have to say, As I am sure I would what you had to say, we may agree on nothing, but then, that's what whiskey is for... let it go, if you can;t don;t worry... my last post on the subject. Good luck with them. I genuinely do respect your passion.

I can attest to that too. Ryen suggested for my needs I might want to look in a different direction. I really appreciated that as it was about the dog not a sale or status or ego (not like some others).

She's black wtf !

Black is beautiful :)

Whats wrong with black?

Nothing , I thought it might get a reaction . I just ironic that yours was the first I'd seen , then this one comes up to be breed out of. What will be the dominant colour ? , my dog liver/ white & ticking over black / white , & ticking . Or will it be a lottery ?

has you one got a pedigree name ????

Black is dominant

NO - They just run faster :D
