Springers are hunting dogs. Cockers are the cutesy ignorant ones. More hyper.
Get a lab. Great family dog. Extremely loyal, and protective of the kids they live with.
High energy dog while playing, but calm if you have them in the house. Love to play fetch/Frisbee, or just lay at your feet.
They are even really good hunting dogs if you so choose.
Labs are the shit.
Just they are big and take really really big shits too.
I don't want a big dog.
Not to get weird here, but I am generally pretty happy...even weirder...Nebraska agrees with me.
I...don't know you anymore.
Dogs are a pain in the ass. You have to create all kinds of things to accomodate them and you can't do anything because the dog has to be looked after or sent to a kennel. They are smelly and chew up everything they can sniff, etc., etc. You don't own them they own you. I recommend a model airplane or some other toy for entertainment that doesn't have to be fed and vacinated. Then there is the poop recovery process. On and on.......................

I hang out at Menard's now.
DCC convention in Omaha....feh.
I already have a name...David Lee Dog.
