My English American cocker spaniel is a pansy assed 25 pound lap dog.
She's gun shy and a total piddler when it comes to surprises.
I want a truck dog.
Wife scoffs.
Need a ruling.

So many good dogs,picking one is hard.I would try the local shelter and see what they have to choose from.Fair warning,when you give a homeless dog a home they tend to be underfoot.

You need a man card before you can get a truck dog.

I've settled for a mountain fiest. That'll work too, as would a Healer. Heck,,, any working breed that the AKC hasn't f-ed up would make a fine traveling companion.

blue that dog looks well done.
Don't care if it hunts.
Jump in truck seat, goes where I go. Walks when I walk. Stays when told. Prefer it get active when people stop by, other than to pee and hide.
I got 2 acres in the fence, 6 acres if I leave the first gate open. 143 after that. So there's room to move.
And I know Steelie's got some pups. I don't mind mutts.
Best rabbit dog I ever had was a beagle-dachshund mix.
And our lab-boxer was the best guard dog I've ever had. A black bitch with an attitude problem.

Need a ruling. I hear ya! This one came with the new wife and step-daughters so I haven't had her around guns much (other than gopher safaris with rimfires). She will flush grouse on her own with no encouragement so does have some instincts. The wife has always had Cockers so I've been telling her the next one should be a Brittany or similar Spaniel - after all they're just a bigger Cocker, right? Good luck with the new pooch!

Jgray, my cocker will absolutely hunt quail. It's scary. But when the gun goes off, so does she. And any attempts to break her have failed. She's five now, and sits on my lap when I hit the chair. That's it. She's a priss.
