I know this has got nothing to do with working cocker spaniels but as I can’t find any in Australia I was wondering if anybody knows a good breeder of springer spaniels (working stock) over here? I’ve decided Joey needs a mate other than the cat.
Springer Spaniels

My experience with retrievers is that you can breed to the show stock, but the litter may not have working characteristics you want.
In golden retrievers, you have to do this every few generations, because the working lines are not that diverse in terms of their gene pools.
Strangely, I don’t know of anyone who has the show version of the ESS. They are all working stock.
