AVAILABLE Cocker Spaniel Puppies For Sale
COCKER SPANIEL Breed Overview
In the early 20th century, Cocker Spaniels also included small hunting spaniels. Cocker Spaniels are eager playmates for kids and are easily trained as companions and athletes. They are big enough to be sporty, but compact enough to be portable.
The Cocker Spaniel is the smallest member of the Sporting Group. He has a sturdy, compact body and a cleanly chiseled and refined head, with the overall dog in complete balance and of ideal size. He stands well up at the shoulder on straight forelegs with a topline sloping slightly toward strong, moderately bent, muscular quarters. He is a dog capable of considerable speed, combined with great endurance. Above all, he must be free and merry, sound, well balanced throughout and in action show a keen inclination to work. A dog well balanced in all parts is more desirable than a dog with strongly contrasting good points and faults.
