Looking for a springer spaniel for a friend

[markj]

He is looking for a female pup, not for breeding but mostly a companion, he lives in SD on a farm so the dog will be in a good location. Dont seem to be any in the for sale forum.

Nice site but too far for him. We are looking for local to Nebraska, Iowa or SD. I had no issues flying in my last pup from NY but he is leery.

If all he wants is a pet, you can find tons of resue dogs. Google springer spaniel rescue and see what comes up. I'm friends with a rescue group on facebook and they always have ESS's avaiable to adopt. They'll work with you on transportation too. Good luck.

'Killa's got the score down - for predominantly a pet, rescue would be the way to go.

However, re a pup

(while also endorsing Sunrise Kennels), you might try Bud Clouse outside Omaha: http://sites.google.com/site/dublemgundogs/

They have some good looking dogs listed, both in their rescue (non kill) and in local shelters. Field bred, bench, and mixed breed.

Thanks, I will pass this information on. I did recommend the Omaha kennel as I had heard of him in the past when a friend got a springer. Living on a farm in SD the thing will see hunting, they do deer camp for pay there so hunters are there season long. But he dont want a dog only wants to run and hunt, maybe I was not clear on that tho. Now I tried to get him into a GSP but.....
