Hi,
I have a one year old working cocker (his birthday today), he was given to us after 2 homes couldn't cope with him, they claimed he had behavioural problems but he is just a crazy spaniel, fits right in with my springers. The original owners paid £450 for him, but obviously had no idea what they were letting themselves in for. When I got him I couldn't find much info except for this website http://www.briarquest.co.uk/ check out the frequently asked questions section and that should answer your questions.
On a positive note, they are really keen and enthusiastic when it comes to training, mine is like a sponge but you have to keep them stimulated.
Hope this website helps you out

Tom, if you want to email me privately, I'll try and hep answer and queries you may have - I own and occassionally breed a litter of working cockers
