My golden cocker mix is the absoute LOVE OF MY LIFE! He is so smart and funny and silly….he does NOT like strangers or other dogs at first but warms up pretty quickly. He has a litter of pups now that he sweetly keeps a watchful eye on from outside the whelping box we built for Mama and their 6 cuties. We don’t allow too much interaction yet but I am anxious to see how he is with them in a few weeks!

I have a golden cocker whose 14th birthday was yesterday. He is a sweet boy. We have had him since he was a year. He was wild and rambunctious then. Really energetic and lively. We were able to train him out of jumping on people and used a halti to help him on the leash. We had two cats when we got him and he was curious at first but learned to give them their space. Later, we welcomed a baby to the family and there were no issues. Never any aggressiveness or possessiveness. He outlived both of our initial cats and we added another one to the family this year. He was interested in her when we got her, but as a senior dog, he has become neutral to her. She likes to try to play with him. He likes to lay on the floor and ignore her.

Health wise, there haven’t been any major issues. He had a bad time with his hips a few years ago, but daily glucosamine tablets helped with that. Now he is on food with glucosamine in it, and he’s not in as much pain. But he hasn’t been able to jump on a bed or into an suv in years. Within the last year, he has quit stairs other than the couple deck stairs needed to get to our yard. Fortunately, there is no need for him to go to other floors of our house so it is fine at home.

Overall, he was a high energy excited young dog. In his old age, he has relaxed and is much much calmer. At his age, we know every day we have with him is a blessing, and we are hoping to have a good couple months, hopefully years, left.

I have a rescued Golden Cocker. She was about a year old when we adopted her. She is sweet with us but demands constant attention. She is not good with small children or strangers. She is friendly but when she goes on her back like she wants to be petted she will snap. There is only one groomer she allows to cut her. She is not good with other dogs, but is great with our small cat. She has the perfect family, because we are retired with no small children. We love her even with her quirks.

My Golden Retrieve/Cocker Spaniel mix was rescued in Guatemala. The lady who had him was older and lived in a small 2nd floor apartment. He was gifted to her so it wasn’t her choice, but she had just lost her dog. It was too much for her. I recently lost my Golden Lab and the little guy looked a lot like me old girl so I melted. It’s been a crazy ride every since! 🙂 He’s my bud.
