This breed is probably one of the best breeds of dog you can have though I am biased as I live with two. They are very happy dogs and their tails constantly wag. However, they must have at least... more

    Advantages Advantages Trusting in a good vet

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Worry, despair and anxiety

    I have an 8-year-old, liver and white coloured Springer spaniel. To me she is a little beauty and I think the world of her. She's always there for me with a loving greeting when I come home from shopping or work, she cuddles up with me on the settee or wraps herself around my feet. When I get up, she gets up, and follows me everywhere. Right from being a pup, she suffered from a very dry and itchy skin problem, an all the scratching made her fur come out. When she was about two the vet treated it as a form of Dermatitis, prescribing different shampoos and creams over a period of about 4 years ... more

    Advantages Advantages Loyal, Loving, Energetic, Fun to be round

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Energetic (twice I know), Ear Problems, Selective Hearing

    Before I get too involved with this review I have listed energetic both in the advantage and disadvantage. My reasons for this are because they are difficult to tire out and are always on the go. Background = Springer's spaniels are gundogs, they were primarily used for flushing the birds, i.e. making the birds fly so the guns can shoot them. Though they are now proving themselves as good retrievers as well. I know very few Springer spaniel owners who do not use them as gundogs but I live in the shooting country. I would be happy to hear from anybody who keeps them as pets. The Type & Colour ... more

    Advantages Advantages active, fun dogs

    Disadvantages Disadvantages hyper, hard to keep up with them!

    I write this review to provide you with a good understanding of the springer spaniel! My fiances family have a 2 year old springer called Buster, and my brother had a dog bred from a springer, so i have a fair idea of what your letting yourselves in for when buying a springer!!! --- Puppy Behaviour --- Honestly, what can i say, Springers are pretty much like puppies all their life! As puppies, they are extremely playful and demand a lot of attention. Springer Spaniels are working dogs, and all their life have so much stamina and energy that its pointless trying to keep up with them!! They love ... more

    Advantages Advantages fun loving, adorable, intelligent

    Disadvantages Disadvantages high maintenance, will break your heart eventually

    ENGLISH SPRINGERS & IN PARTICULAR, LOTTIE The Breed Spaniels are one of the most well known and long lasting pedigree dog breeds still alive. They have historically been used for bird hunting, retrieving the bird after it has dropped from the sky, but now are more commonly used as pets. Some are still used for hunting game, as they still share the same characteristics as their ancestors. The English Springers My dog, Lottie, is an English springer spaniel and therefore this is going to the breed I review here! The English Springer, even more so than a lot of its compatriots such as a King ... more
