KC GOLDEN SHOW COCKER SPANIEL FOR STUD TESTED TO KCAB STANDARDS

County / Town: Wiltshire

Description

Standing at stud: Mungo, a pedigree, golden ENGLISH he's not an import, pure bred SHOW cocker spaniel and arguably THE most popular choice for a golden show cocker stud.

Why is he such a popular choice? True to breed type, he is simply THE best DNA health tested show cocker stud tested to - and above - what the Kennel Club say a cocker spaniel should be tested for namely:

- DNA test result to confirm he is prcd-PRA clear

-  DNA test result to confirm he is FN clear

- DNA test result to confirm he is AMS clear

-  DNA test result to confirm he is AON clear

- DNA test result to confirm he is PO clear  

-  Annual BVA / KC eye exam which confirms clear of all tested hereditary eye diseases including PRA and HC performed August 2023 also performed in 2022, 2021 and 2019

- Gonioscopy PLA - Grade 0 the best which he was tested for in 2022 and 2019 next due 08/25 All these results can be seen by everyone including buyers on the KC site. PLUS

- BVA Hip score results - excellent

- BVA Elbow score results - excellent

- VET checked for non-luxating patellae.

I have a lot of experience and knowledge so can help with selling your litter and picking buyers and I one the VERY few stud owners who has:

- A Kennel Club Assured Breeder accreditation of show cocker spaniels and Stud Dog Handler 

- A 5 star Animal Welfare Licence / low risk from Wiltshire Council.

The experience will be a positive one for both AND and your dam. It's actually alot of fun! Mungo is an exceptional pedigree with many show champions in his lines marked in red on the chart picture attached.

His health tests and colour mean that his pups are very popular. He has a stunning coat and is a truly golden colour - one of the few RECOGNISED spaniel colours by the Kennel Club - NO white markings on his face a 'fault' according to the Kennel Club and he does NOT carry sable which is not a recognised KC colour. He has a lovely temperament. He is our FAMILY DOG and lives IN OUR HOME we are not a kennel with my other three female spaniels so he is quite the gentleman and very good at his job. If you would like to meet him via Zoom and ask any questions then please get in touch.

PRICE

He charges £400 which includes cytology to make sure timings are right and upto 3 matings - and a free return in the unlikely event of no pregnancy. I can offer AI by arrangement with a vet.

SUPPORT I have 3 dams myself and alot of breeding experience to help and advise if you need it as well as help with selling your litter of you want it. I can advise you on:

- pre-pregnancy actions

And will advertise your litter on Mungo's Facebook page if you want - being so well health tested his litters are well sought after. A few pics attached - some of big insta acs or are used as models.

🐶 Buyer’s Checklist for Gun Dogs

Whether you’re buying, selling, or studding a dog, it’s essential to take the right steps to protect yourself—and the animals involved.

  • Always meet the dog in person at the breeder’s home or kennel—never agree to buy without seeing them first.
  • Ask to see the puppies with their Dam (mother), and the Sire (father) if available.
  • Verify all paperwork:
    • Kennel Club (KC) registration number
    • Date of birth
    • Health screening results
  • Prepare questions to ask the breeder. Some helpful ones include:
    • Did you breed the dog(s) yourself?
    • Can I see where they were bred and raised?
    • How old is the Dam, and how many litters has she had?
    • Was the birth natural or via C-section?
    • Are there any known health issues?
    • Can I see documentation for both Dam and Sire?
    • Will the puppy be vaccinated and wormed before purchase?
  • If something feels off, walk away. Don’t ignore red flags.
  • Ask for advice from a trusted third party if you’re unsure.
  • Take your time. This is a big decision—don’t rush it.
  • Puppies should appear happy, healthy, clean, and curious.
  • You should be allowed to see and handle all puppies in the litter, not just the one you're considering.
  • Never buy a puppy younger than 8 weeks old.
  • Avoid any puppies that show signs of illness—e.g. runny eyes, weakness, or diarrhoea.
  • Is the whelping pen clean?
  • Do the dogs have access to fresh water, clean food, and adequate space?
  • The living conditions can say a lot about the breeder’s standards.
  • Ensure you receive the KC registration form and all relevant documents at the time of payment.
  • Write up a simple contract to protect both buyer and seller—especially important in case circumstances change.
  • Never agree to buy a puppy in a car park or public place. Always go to the breeder's premises.

🧠 Final Thought

Buying a gun dog is your responsibility. Do your homework on both the breed and the breeder. Make sure your decision is informed, confident, and in the best interest of the dog.
