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…
Check out the 20 Things All Cocker Spaniel Owners Must Never Forget on the next page:

This is our little girl cocker , Bonnie, who we rescued from a puppy farm…she’s had far too many litters for her size and age and had never seen the inside of a house….now look…2 years on, and she’s as happy as Larry, and has commandeered the sofa ! Wouldn’t have it any other way !
