Also known as English Cocker Spaniel
A soft-natured gundog that never stops wagging
Cocker Spaniels combine an eager working nose with an unusually people-focused temperament. They are happy in most homes as long as they get a real walk, regular grooming, and are not left alone for long days.
This breed needs about 90 minutes of activity a day. Around 5 sitter-led sessions a week keeps that routine going when work or travel gets in the way.
