Cooper – Family-friendly & Working Cocker Spaniel for stud in Offaly

Meet Cooper, our handsome male Cocker Spaniel, available for stud. He is a much-loved family pet and proven working dog with an excellent temperament and strong natural ability in the field.

Cooper is extremely intelligent, friendly, and good-natured. He is fantastic with people, children, and other dogs, making him a pleasure to have around. Raised as a house dog, he is calm, affectionate, and well-mannered indoors, but when it's time to work, he switches effortlessly into working mode.

He has experience working on both pheasant and snipe and shows great drive, focus, and trainability in the field. Despite his working ability, he remains easy to walk, easy to handle, and has a very steady temperament.

Cooper is in excellent health, regularly wormed and vaccinated, and is a great example of the breed with both brains and looks. We hope to pass on his friendly nature, intelligence, and working ability to the next generation.
