Title: Sprollie - South East
Post by: Kitchen Cottage on August 16, 2013, 07:46:48 am

Looking for a male sprollie.  Doesn't need to be a puppy.... I have a very old dog Freddie (19) who isn't coping well anymore and I want a companion for my other dog Misty if Freddie isn't around anymore.  Freddie is a sprollie and is the most wonderful dog ever.  I would like a cross over period..

We got a wonderful sprocker from Raystede near Lewes - have you given them a try? I know it's not exactly what you requested and she wasn't a "stock" item but I can make enquiries as the girls next door both work there

I love spaniels, my tenant has a patterdale/Russell cross and it makes me appreciate the lovely spaniel temperament... given Fred has been the best dog in the whole world for 18 years.... it makes me want to have this mix again.... having said that Misty is a working cocker and a little pet...

Isn't a sprollie a collie/springer mix?

Get a rescue dog anyway, they're cheaper and so much more rewarding

Patterdale - terrier x  Jack Russell Terrier = Terrier - NOT Spaniel!  :roflanim:

we had a sprollie as a kid, except it was called a crossbreed then...lol.
she was a really lovely dog. pedigree springer mum but all the pups were collie coloured just with fluffy ears.
a friend of ours had the same but it was docked which looked quite strange as it also looked like a collie.
good luck finding one.
