About The English Springer
Spaniel
If you're looking for an affectionate, energetic
canine companion with a penchant for hunting, the English Springer
Spaniel could be the perfect breed for you. World-class hunters and
exceptional family dogs, the Springer Spaniel originated in Spain, and
has been used for centuries by wild game hunters to "flush out" prey on
land. In the field, these dogs are dedicated and relentless; in the home
they are loving and loveable clowns who love to play and have fun.
They also excel in obedience,
agility, tracking and flyball. Springers stand about 20 inches at the
shoulder and weigh between 40 and 50 pounds. The long, dense, double
coat is usually liver and white and requires regular brushing and
occasional trimming to keep it in good condition. This breed is an
excellent choice for families who can offer plenty of room to run
outdoors and plenty of time to play!
