  1. I'm yet to meet an aggressive cocker - looking at my two I struggle to think how either of then could be anything other than sweet (if not a bit sooky lol) I think CL is right, when cockers were extremely popular and the dog market was saturated with them, less importance was put on quality, and more on quantity. Today's cockers are different. There is emphasis put on quality (although there are good and bad breeders everywhere!)
  2. Hi all - i'm posting on behalf of friends who are looking for a rental in Brisbane. There isn't much out there are the moment through the usual channels. They both work, have fantastic rental history, and have a one year old boxer. Preferably the East Side (they are currently living in Carina, and would prefer this side of town still!). Budget is around 400 p/w. If you know of anyone, or you have a rental - please let me know!! Thanks!
  3. I think i know the trainers you are referring to, they are mine as well. They went through so much research and medical treatments & tests.... it was horrible
  4. Nudgee, the Spit & the Wynnum Esplanade are great - but i like our local dog park at Carindale (Meadowlands Rd). We have never really had a problem there, and it's nice and close to home
  5. lol i have to laugh - I just googled the meaning of Molly, and apparently it means 'bitter' - which is so apt right now - she is getting so cranky at the tiniest things - especially when Beanie annoys her! Beanie is so named because of the bean bag he loved sleeping on as a pup at his breeders.
  6. our kitty has a 'less is more' approach with the dogs. They exist in harmony - but very much separately. She won't go close enough to the dogs to go through the doggy door at the same time is them. We were back at work today, and she stayed inside. You would think something like this would be more accessible and available - i'm sure it isn't a unique situation!
  7. thanks all! I wonder whether the US ones are the same sizes as the Australian ones? I found information that says that you can reverse the magnetic ones, but you just need to make sure they are protected from any harsh environments.
  8. i thought there were sensor ones too - but they all just seem to advertise that they keep unwanted animals out - so i'm not 100% sure that the sensor is on both sides?
  9. well, the day has finally arrived when our cat figured out the doggy door, and took herself on a field trip in our backyard... I know that you can get magnetic doggy doors etc, but they are designed to keep animals out, not keep certain animals in. Are there any doggy doors that actually work this way, OR, crazy idea, but could you install the magnetic ones 'backwards' so that it keeps certain animals inside? Any suggestions greatly appreciated!
  10. we had this discussion on another forum the other day ----- a cacophony of cockers!!!
  11. love this thread... this is Molly's 'yes, may i be of assistance' face and her playtime face and beanie's 'whhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhatttttttt' face
  12. cockers love to make a roo roo noise when they are excited or want your attention "a-roo-roo-roooooooo" from what i have seen - this is a very typical cocker sleeping position.......lol
  13. Go Jana!! If only i had Beanie when the nominations happened - could have been Breeder of the Year!!!
  14. Wouldn't actually agree with this. In my experience, Cockers have always been on the higher end of the energy scale and not always reliable with children. Ellz - i was just speaking about my experience with my two. I compare them to our friends dogs eg. boxer & border collies, and then my OH's mums maltese, and i would definately place our cockers in the middle of the two spectrums.
