Melissa - Cocker Question
Rage Syndrome occurs more often in Springer Spaniels...not heard of it
happening in Cocker Spaniels. Black cockers are more cuddley...I have 3. Poor breeding brings out bad temperaments in most breeds. "C Newlin" wrote in message ... "Cocker Spaniel Rescue of BC" wrote in message news  I must have missed this original post but blaming a dog because of its colour is like blaming someone for something because they wear a blue shirt. Carol J Cocker Spaniel Rescue of BC Hi...just chiming in here. I read once in a book that *black* cockers (American I think) are somewhat prone to something called "Avalanche of Rage" (or something like that...). My MIL is a long time cocker owner and did quite a bit of showing in the '70s and '80s. She was familiar with the syndrome, but not any association with color. Just curious if its an old wive's tale or a real syndrome? I'm a boxer person and don't really know much about cockers, but was just curious...

Poor breeding brings out bad temperaments in most breeds. ok, i'm confused. you say that it's unfair to say buff cockers are more prone to aggression, yet you state that black cockers are more cuddly. so which is it? does color matter or not? -kelly

In rescue, I have seen aggression in all of the varieties.
However, other traits are more prevalent in some. For example: Black and Tan..Hyper, clowns _____________________________________________ "culprit" wrote in message ...
