We have been breeding American cocker spaniels since 2004 and it is truely a labor of love. All of our puppies have their tails docked and dew claws removed. (This is the claw on inside of front feet that can catch on your clothes when they jump up.) Both procedure are performed in our vets office at 2 days of age when the puppies nerves are not completely formed in these areas. Our pups are then dewormed at 2, 4 and 6 weeks of age. At 8 weeks of age the pups are brought again to the vet to have a health check up, tested for worms, and given their first set of shots. A state of Florida heath certificate is given with each puppy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inbreeding and line breeding (mating with brothers, sisters or cousins) is used by some breeders to help cut costs and occurs when pups are kept to be used for future breeding. It is terrible thing that can generate genetically ill puppies. The defects usually show up when the dog is about a year old. We can guarantee there is no chance of inbreeding with all of our puppies. All of our cockers are from different states – Tennessee, Idaho, Georgia, Indiana, Louisiana, North Carolina and California. We have had our male DNA tested per AKC standards to ensure their genetics and parenthood. Each puppy comes with an AKC family history showing three generations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
