My Beautiful Tia

by Louise Pridmore

This is Tia - she's a wonderful 5 generation Pedigree Working Cocker Spaniel - and she's 10 weeks old in these photographs.

She has a brilliant temperment and is very 'chilled'.

I'm really looking forward to being able to take her out for a walk and hope that she is a good girl out of the house as well as in.

Tia is almost house trained and is responding to the 'Sit' Command only, so far.

At the minute, when I give her training sessions with some tasty puppy treats, she wants to continually bite and scratch at my hand to get the treat and doesn't really want to pay attention to what I'm asking of her.

I'm hoping this is just because she's so young and is an excited puppy.

She does however always sit without being told when dinner is being put down and then eats it very slowly - she sometimes even sits down during her dinner.

I'm so pleased with my new puppy, she's adorable and I love her.
