not saying you are not ready...just saying that what you think you might not want right now, might very well be exactly what you need. and this pup could give you more love than you could ever fathom. i know daisy did. she gave me strength through soooo many hard times.

I used to know someone who had a cocker just like yours. He was very sweet and loving and so cute.
