20 Things All Cocker Spaniel Owners Must Never Forget

by pawbuzz on in Dogs 812

The Cocker Spaniel is primarily a beloved companion dog breed, though he remains a capable bird dog at heart.

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.

It’s been often said that dogs are the only creatures on earth that love you more than they love themselves. Well, Cocker Spaniels are no exception!

But sometimes, we take our furry friends and wonderful companions for granted. There are important life lessons that are sometimes easy to forget in our hectic lives, that all Cocker Spaniel owners must never forget.

If we want to pay back the favor and give them the best life possible, these 20 important reminders should serve you well as awesome Cocker Spaniel owners. The last one (#20) brought me to tears…

    My cocker is my best buddy. He is twelve, but just as loving as when he was a baby. Now he is dealing with a heart problem, so extra care is given. Yeah he is family.

    so sorry for your loss, Betty … my 5 year old cocker spaniel “Brandi” passed away 3 months ago … she injured her spine and he back legs were paralyzed within 24 hours :'( I certainly understand your pain … my heart is broke. We’ve had cocker spaniels over the past 25 years … hopefully, my heart in the future <3

    I’m so sorry your baby is unwell too. I know that feeling of doing anything you can to help them what ever the cost. Sadly for us there was nothing we could do for shya which broke my heart. When we went in to the vets to spend some time time with her before she went over the rainbow bridge she saw us and wagged her tail even though she couldn’t stand up. I really hope your pup gets better soon x

    Debbie Rhynolds Dickie I just read your comment on the$#%&!@*Spaniel website. I lost my little girl Codie due to the same ailment; she jumped after a lizard on a fence and came down and screamed after landing on her back spine. After 2 days she could not walk and no guarantee with surgery. I had to let her go after sleeping on the floor with her and watching her suffer. I am so sorry for you loss but thank you for letting me have someone to respond to that knows the pain I feel right now. Codie was only 10. and the love of my life, I lost my son a few years ago andf she came into my yard a lost puppy after. She was a blessing and I would give anything to have her back. Will the tears ever stop?
