Her MOTIVATIONAL LECTURE is highly recommended!!!

We do breed occasionally.  All health tests are done on our breeding stock.  We also perform neurostimulating exercises on our puppies.  Our goal as a  breeder is to breed a life companion. So elements of longevity, sound structure and mental soundness is a priority.   We do have a May cocker spaniel breeding planned for 2012.
