Angel or Little Devil?

This is Espresso, and he is one of the most loving cocker spaniels you will ever meet.

He is also what I would call a little OCC - Obsessive Compulsive Cocker. He needs to have everything in its place. No dirty dishes on the counter are allowed. No packages are to be left on the table.

And he has to be on a schedule, eating breakfast or dinner at a particular time, going for a walk for a specific time, and going to bed at a regular time each evening.

If anything is out of place or not done on time, he finds you, waits until he has eye contact...and then barks, barks, and barks until he gets what he wants. :-)

Just when you don't think you can take another minute of his barking, he crawls up to you, leans in and gives you the BIGGEST Cocker hug imaginable.

He does have me wrapped around his 4 paws, but I wouldn't want it any other way.

He is one of three cockers in my home, and I am very blessed.
