About Me
- Gail Bohacek-Sheehan
- Hi, My name is Gail Bohacek-Sheehan (Nightingale Cockers). In October of 1982 we bought our first Cocker Spaniel puppy from a person unknown to us at the time - Jane Benthein (Schatzie Acres Cockers), Manitowoc, WI. Jane and I became best of friends. It was the cutest black female puppy,"Daisy". Later Jane and I bought a black n white puppy bitch, "Katie", "Schatzie's n Bo's Katie Jane". She produced my first champion. 'Ch. Nosowea's n Bo's No Trial", "Toby". Toby's offspring are still in the ring with Joanne Thorp today, "Nosowea's" Cudahy, WI. Then I purchased a silver buff female who became "Ch. Tri-Pod's n Bo's Picture This","Lacey", from Deb Podratz "Tri-Pod Cockers", MN. She, Lacey, produced "Ch. Nightingale's Double Take", "Tiffany" and "Ch. Nightingale's Classic Image", "Jamie". From "Tiffany" we still have the lines 8 generations later being "Nightingale's Golden Isle Breezes" "Breezy" producing "Nightingale's Mercy Me" and "Nightingale's Southern Jezebel". FOR THE REST OF MY STORY SEE THE BLOG POSTED OCTOBER 1, 2012....

One of our babies was returned to us last month. I am so sorry to say he had not been taken care of the way I had expected the young mother to take care of him...she wanted a Cocker puppy and I trusted her seeing her with her 3 children. He was in pretty rough shape, smelly ears and some sore spots on his underside. He had not been neutered as he was supposed to have been by now. Well, I have been working hard to get him back in tip top shape and it is showing. He was neutered last week and the 'hot' spots are healed. His ears and mattery eyes are much improved...the vet said it is probably allergies. I also changed his food! We are looking for a forever home for him. He is a very happy boy, a very well mannered boy and he is crate trained. He had a negative HW test last week and is on HW and FLEA preventive, he is current on his vaccinations! "Ziggy" was born Feb 13, 2012. 'Trigger' is his Daddy and 'Breezy' is his Mamma! If interested or if you have questions, please email me at gailyb51@comcast.net

Follow up on our Moonfyre's Betty Boop, after being in the ring just 3 weekends her wins included Best of Winners and Best of Opposite Sex to Best of Variety in Sweepstakes at The Cocker Spaniel Club of Southeastern Florida on March 8th, 2013 at West Palm Beach, FL, a 1st Place on March 9th and 10th at West Palm Beach, FL. She then received 2 - 1st Place and a Reserve Winners at the Lakeland, FL weekend Feb 16th & 17th, 2013, 2 - 1st Place and 2 Reserve Winners at the Tallahassee, FL weekend Feb 21st, 22nd, 23rd and 24th, 2013. After much thought and knowing there weren't going to be any shows for her for awhile, we decided to pull her because she is a very lightly marked black and tan girl. Competition would be long and hard...

Time passes by...
It is time to update our blog...
'Jett' went to live with a wonderful gentleman and his wife in Ocala, FL in Oct of 2012. We get regular reports and pics of him! He is doing great!
'Charlotte' went to live with her older brother, Cody, in Jacksonville, FL a couple of weeks ago. Her new Mom is sending pics almost daily of the two kids curled up together on the couch. A match made in heaven for sure! It is what this is all about!
We also found a perfect home for 'Breezy' with a gal here in Brunswick who has a 12 year old Cocker boy who needed a friend. They had a few problems making the adjustment but all seems to be going good now! Breezy was used to sleeping in her crate/bed at night....
We now have 4 Cockers living with us - Angie, Haley, Trigger and Amelia.
3 weeks ago today we picked up Miss Betty Boop - breeder Chris Debowski (Moonfyre's Betty Boop by Ch. Toybox Hop, Skip n Jump x Moonfyre's Dark Desire) at the Savannah Airport. Her grandsire is our Chadwick - R.A's n Nightingale's Golden Isle Venture. We took Miss Betty to the Ocala Shows on Friday to meet up with Nancy Virden and Lindy Bennett (Toybox). Nancy will be showing her in her first shows at Lakeland, FL on Feb. 15, 16 17 & 18th! Chris n I are hoping for a quick finish for her...she is a very nice little girl!
