Answer #2

Get a relationship going with a Vet … should there be any problems at whelping time, you will have someone to call for help.

Get the whelping box set up early, so she can get used to it

Study up on whelping puppies, so you will know what to look for, and what to do for her…most pups are born smoothly, but you never know. Best be prepared for any contingency.

Yes there are genetic problems with Cockers, as with most dogs. Hopefully, you know the Cocker standards, and know her pedigree…and you chose a stud dog with a great pedigree also, to avoid those problems.
