On this page, we will try to give you a feel for the boys here at Hearthside.  We love each and every one of them.  Every one of them is the kind of boy you would love to own - but too bad.  We have 3 boys, and between them are able to produce many different colors.  I am going to try to figure out how to show their pedigrees too, but that may take a while, and a visit (or 2 or 3) from a computer whiz.  Enjoy your stay, and come back anytime.  

 Jed - August 2002. He got his start at Oakwood Cockers in Maryland.

Misty Cove's Legend of the Fall

This is our Jed.  

I have to say, when we first went to pick this boy up,
I thought he was rather funny looking.  He was for sale on line, and we wanted a sable male.  We had made the purchase, as many of you do, just from pictures.  Well, it took no time at all for him to have all of us wrapped around his waggy tail, his very sweet - so calm disposition, everything.  I can't say a bad thing about this boy - oops, except that he does not like kitties. Maybe he was not raised around them. 

Our puppies have plenty of experience with cats who like them also.

This guy loves to be groomed, even his cute 'little' Cocker feet.   His official name is Misty Cove's Legend of the Fall, but we call him Jed - short for Jedidiah Beans of Hearthside.
These pictures were taken on our way home from TN, with him, when we first got Jed in Sept. 2005.
He is such a good boy, and has a great disposition, loves people, falls alseep on the grooming table, and always has a smile on his face.  His pedigree has 5+ generations of champions on Dad's side, and his mama is so nice also.  He is truly an amazing dog.
We are very thankful for him, and love having him as part of our family.

 Romeo - Jan. 2006.  He was born in Mississippi, at
J-Hugh Cockers.

The Ozark's Hillbilly Romeo of Hearthside

This Romeo is another easy going Cocker boy.  We got him in October of 2006.  We were on the hunt for a black, white and tan boy - this guy is perfect.  He walks like he is going to a show all the time, and is passing that on to his 'chilluns'.

He is a total goof ball, and though he is everyone's boy, he has rather claimed Becky to be his girl.

Romeo is another big love and is very sweet. He has a great disposition and conformation too.  We got Romeo from J-Hugh Cockers in Mississippi. He is chocked full of T Parti, Roadshow, Schiely's and other great names in the Cocker Spaniel annuls of fame. :0)

Thaddaeus - March 2006.  He comes from Texas.

Thaddaeus Enoch of Hearthside

Mr. Thaddaeus was adopted from Howard and Gail Pence of Texas.  As with most of our dogs here, we got Thaddaeus as a puppy. He comes from Texas, and has very strong champion bloodlines - mostly from the Gilbert line in Texas.
He is a gorgeous buff boy, and in late March, 2007, he and Posey became parents.  The puppies were so beautiful - our 'Z' litter.

Thaddaeus is another very laid back and calm boy.  He has
such a wonderful personality and temperament.  He gets along with everyone here, dogs and people alike. 

We feel very blessed with all of our Cocker Spaniels here.

Leo - More Beautiful Buffs.

Lyon, better known as Leo, has a champion mother and father.  He comes to us from Linda Henderson in St. Louis.  This boy is very friendly and absolutely loves people.  He is just a super nice buff boy.  I will

post more information on his background, when we get the official AKC papers back in the mail.  :0)

Hearthside's Captain Seamus

Hearthside's Captain Seamus is one of our home-grown boys.

His dad is our Jed, Mom is our Samantha Rose.  Cap'n started out in Nov. 07, as Crocodile Dundee.  What a character.

We loved this guy so much, and wanted a nice chocolate boy - so we kept him.  He loves to romp and play, he is a super happy guy and gets along great with everyone.

He is going to be a bit on the small side, like his little mama, so that will be nice.
