Pampered Ponies (Miniature Horses)

Our beautiful
girl, Misty, has a litter about one time
per year. Males are priced at $550 and females
start at $600. Preventative worming, dew claws, tails and shots will be done
prior to our puppies leaving us. The earliest our pups may leave is 7
weeks, but we recommend leaving them for 8 weeks at our home. Choosing
between a boy a girl is difficult for many families. But, if you neuter
or spay young, most gender differences are deleted. With young
neutering, the male often does not even develop the habit of lifting his
leg and will continue to squat.
There are 2 types of
Springer Spaniels; field bred and show/bench bred. Both
parents of these puppies are field bred and have
championships in their blood lines. We do not hunt with
our dogs, but they are wonderful family pets. Field
bred dogs are bred for how well they prove themselves
obedient in the field and how well they go through
obstacles. They are not bred as much for their looks,
nor for their coats. Show Springer Spaniels are bred for
looks and coats...and not for trainability. One has
looks and one has brains?? Actually, both the show and
field Springers are wonderful dogs, but there is a
difference. The field bred have shorter feathers so they
do not require as much grooming. The male Field
Springers have much longer feathers than the females.
They are also leaner in build.
Click on this site: http://www.ess4field.com/fieldxshow.htm and it has a good comparison picture at the bottom of the page. But, most Field Springers are much prettier than the one pictured. You will want to notice how much longer the show's ears are and how much longer the field's tail is. http://www.essft.com/fieldshow.html is a good description of the difference, but with no pictures.
