Ch Whitfield's Crescent Moon ECM
"Smudge"
 #1 English Cocker for 1997 
 Multiple Best In Show dog

Smudge recently earned his E.C.M. with 20 champion kids 
and more soon to finish.

I originally got my first English Cocker in 1985 as a family pet and obedience dog.  Soon I was bewitched by the breeds' temperament and beauty. 

The more I was around them the more I realized I wanted to be deeper involved with the breed.  I had a lot to learn about them to compete in the breed ring but no where near what I had to learn (and am still learning) to become a responsible and conscientious breeder.

I feel I have been blessed to have had the chance to learn so much from many of the breeds most devoted breeders. 


Health and temperament are as important to us as confirmation because one is not complete without the other. Breeding with a few same minded co breeders I feel we are doing all we can to pursue and preserve this philosophy.

Besides the wonderful success we've had in the show ring, we feel our happy pet owners are also a big part of our success as breeders.  Not all dogs are show dogs but all dogs should be wonderful additions to someone's family.
