Cooper is the ultimate working dog. 
A superbly athletic powerful dog that oozes style and hunting ability with a superb nose. Covers vast ground and difficult terrain with ease. 
Soft mouthed on both fur and feather and a strong swimmer as well as an impressive jumper.
Very fast and responsive, kind and gentle within the home, he is sensible when it comes to working but has an off switch.

Cooper is an experienced stud and is good with maiden bitches. He passes down his height, temperament and trainability to his offspring. 

Bred from nice working lines and has 25ftchs within his 5 generation pedigree. His Grandsire is FTCH Mediterranean Blue.

He has been used both in the beating line and for picking up doing multiple days each season. He is a good steady dog on the peg and can collect birds from long distances on blind retrieves easily.

Coopers fee is £400 and 2 matings are welcome. 
A free repeat mating is offered on the next season if no pups are produced.

For more information please feel free to get in touch via message, call or text.

We are happy to offer help and advice throughout both the mating and the whelping process if needed.

🐶 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.
