Here registered cocker breeders in Australia and NZ, you can select state in the drop down menu. I am assuming you want British one not American one:

http://www.dogzonline.com.au/breeds/breeders/cocker-spaniel.asp

If you find one that looks like they have what you want, contact them even if they are not having litter listed. I am involved in different breed, and have never listed a litter; my pups are spoken for, usually long time before they are born.

Not sure if cockers are the same. I have hard that their temperament is not very good.

All I can suggest is...... don't do it!

Replacement pets will never be as good as the original.

Pick a different breed....... there are plenty to choose from.

I hear what you are saying but this is an unusual situation.

Mum is bored not eating properly and feels like she doesn't want to be here anymore.

Before she was married, as a teen, grandma had a black cocker. (more than 55 years ago)

And we have had many pets since.

I am wanting to bring her memories of a happy time back together with her having something to care for and love.

She needs a friend. I know her and I know this will lift her tremendously.

Thanks super, I have googled also but hoping someone has a great recommendation from knowledge or experience.

nics, I think gkam is wondering why that particular kind.

Well no duh, the question as it is written, and I will make it simple for you is asking for a black long haired breeder of Cocker Spaniels not a breeder of black long haired Cocker Spaniels.

Oh I almost forgot LOL.

I think he means the dog.... not the breeder.

I had a beautiful black cocker spaniel many years ago, she was lovely.

Also google health problems in cockers; I do not know much about this breed, but I have a feeling there are some serious ones.

Are you sure about the long-haired bit? They look high maintenance

and don't appear to have any legs.

Good for mopping the floor though

Nope.....get a real dog.......a Black Lab.......now there's a dog

Re: Hi, Anyone know a good Cocker Spaniel breeder in Vic?

azureline** — Thu, 19 Mar 2015 09:35:03 GMT

It sounds like the cocker spaniel is the choice already made.
Registered breeder and references are essential. Mine had no health issues and was great with children.
No yapping.

Love it also.

Funny that, nephew just became engaged and they got a spanador.

Spaniel x labrador

Most intelligent dog apparently is a black lab then a German shepherd.

But a lab is too big for mum.

Azure, any recommended breeders?

No sorry, our girl was born in 1977, I have forgotten the breeders name.

Are black labs supposed to be intelligent? I got dudded!

No, he's pretty good now that he's grown up but I agree they are not ideal pups for an older lady. Cocker spaniels are beautiful and I've heard that they are very intelligent.
