Auchendinny Jelly Beans ‘Sprout’ 

Sprout has an honest pedigree, his Dam Utopiavalley Buttercup of Auchendinny carries Boots lines, she hunts well and is a great addition to our Beating team. His Sire Arkglas Coby of Mordor is a superb Picking Up Dog and strong stamp of Cocker. 

Sprout has really proven himself out the last couple of seasons and is a key member of our Picking Up and Beating Team, completing 40 days+ on Grouse and low ground, both commercial and small. 

He has plenty of drive and a good working attitude that will go all day and he is a pleasure to train. 

He has a very lovable nature and can be cheeky - just how Cockers should be, as with all of our dogs he has that all important off switch at home. 

He is a solid stamp of Cocker, he is broad in the chest and shoulders, approx 15kg, shoulder height 14 inches. 

His Mother can be seen along with a Son of his, his progeny are doing well, excelling in Pet Homes, Working Homes & Agility, they are proving easy to train with lovely temperaments which is really key for us.

🐶 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.
