The English Cocker Spaniel

12/10/2017

0 Comments

 
The English Cocker Spaniel is one of the oldest land spaniels which were initially bred to aid the capture of birds, more specifically woodcock. Until the 1960’s all types of spaniels where categorized together, this included the English and American cocker spaniel, Welsh and English springer spaniels also the King Charles spaniel and Irish Water spaniel.
The English Cocker Spaniel and American are very similar to each other, though the difference being an American cocker spaniel is smaller and also has a thicker coat than the English Cocker Spaniel.

The English Cocker spaniel is medium size breed which stands around 38-43cm for a male or 36-41cm for a female. The Cocker Spaniel has a soft wavy coat, long floppy ears, and a domed head. They are seen in array of over 30 colour combinations.

The Cocker spaniels are very social and love spending time with their family. They are very eager to please and intelligent which makes them easy to train and very obedient with their owners. The Cocker spaniel can gain weight very quickly and this is why they require daily exercise, to prevent obesity, pancreatitis or Diabetes.
Overall if you are looking for an easy going, loving family member than the Cocker Spaniel is the breed to choose.
