Oh Cocker Spaniels… the beautiful, sweet-natured and moderately sized dogs that are ever so popular among dog owners….
Is it because of their loving, affectionate and gentle personality? or all of the above?
Beautiful to look at (and labor-intensive to groom), the Cocker’s amenable, cheerful disposition also makes him a treat to have in the family.
Never more pleased than when he’s pleasing you, he’s as happy to snuggle on the couch with his favorite adults as to romp in the yard with the kids.
But as popular as they’ve become, you might be shocked to know that they are the worst dogs to live with… and there are 19 reasons for it.
Check out the 19 reasons why Cocker Spaniels are the worst dogs to live with on the next page:

Cockers generally are pretty wonderful dogs! My Blondie had been abused for 8 years but she was very loving and obedient.

I’m not even going to dignify this nonsense by reading it. We currently have our NINTH Cocker, and I wouldn’t consider another breed.

I don’t even have to read this to know this has to do with poor breeding & poor or no obedience training. We owned , bred & showed cocker spaniels for over 20 years. They are great pets but so much has to do with good breeding & persistent training.
