    We love Crocker spaniels, we are on 5th one, which 4 have passed. They have been such good dogs, very smart, and no problems with shedding. We are thinking about getting a new one to go with Reese, for company.

    Sandra, don’t give up.Having been thru the training with Casey, his last vestige of the aggression is occasionally against our older female. She’s so sweet, but now almost bling and sometimes intrudes on his space, walking into him etc. Gotta be careful there, but otherwise fine. I must admit we needed training also.
