He’s a realun mate , got him given couple of years ago , only been used to flush to lurchers. Took less than 3 months to get him reined in , hardest part was getting him to give up his retrieves , wouldn’t part with him now , he’s the most switched on cocker you could want , his memory on shot birds is phenomenal, set him away after a drive and he just keeps appearing with birds , I don’t have to send him away he just oases birds to me and he just goes and does his thing , , one fault , but not in my eyes he gets hammered in briars / brambles
