KC REG Red Cocker

County / Town: Cornwall

Description

KC Red Cocker Dog Monti is an excellent worker with a soft temperament, his mum and dad were both bred for their working abilities and temperament and Monti and his sister who I also have definitely reflect this. Monti has been used on the biggest pheasant shoot in the UK for dogging in beating and picking up he is an extremely trainable and loyal dog and I couldn’t have wished for any better. The following tests have been done * DNA- ams * DNA FN * DNA - prcd-PRA * BVA/KC/ISDS Eye Scheme - unaffected I have documentation to prove these tests and al tests can be found on the kennel club. The inbreeding coefficient for MONCHETTI HENRY’S HONOUR is 12.9% with the breed average being 10.4% Monti is one of 8 puppies which ranged in colours from blue roan, black, red and lemon. I have had great feedback from all pups about temperament and trainability, he isn’t NOT yet proven however shows lots of interest in bitches when they come in season so I have no doubt he will do the job. Price is £200 for two ties

🐶 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.
