Thread: importing Frozen Semen i

springers are bigger, eat more, pretty boring to look at and supposed to be easier to train, a springer will bash cover just for the hell of it.
cockers are smaller, eat less, look better {esp when eyewiping there bigger cousins}, absolute cunts to train {not} and so long as there something to chase inside enjoy cover.

both types should have a typical spaniel temp.

how did Erlandson put it, 'a springer for sport, a cocker for punishment'?

little people or devil dogs.... i like to think the working cocker has improved since erlandsons days.

I really enjoy his writing style. I love how he describes Speckle of Ardoon in the final pages of "Gundog Training". Brilliant. Anyway, back to tadpole posicles

back to the real guts of the thread yeah, so who wants a english setter pup if i get a bitch in from oz ??????

Hi el borrancho
I know nothing about this one but still may be of some help... I am currently waiting on a weimerana from a breeder in whanganui who is importing the semin from Germany (and mixing 2 different sires)
they may be some help to you
Greyflight weimeranas in whanganui. google them.
Hope this helps

one has to ask the question, wei?

Hendren and Voilà - enough breeding material for the foundation of a focused and dedicated kennel for the next couple of decades

This will be a very good litter.
There is already talk of breeding the pick of this litter back to a NZ line also.

Is there much of the Wingfield "w" and "x" litters alive Cmore?

They are about but to old for any breeding use. X litter will be 11 years old now.
there has been a few wingfield x berryfield litters breed since the last of Leons breeding
