About Cocker Spaniels
​
The breed's name comes from its original function, as they was used to hunt woodcock.
The breed was not recognised as a separate variety until 1893 and until that time all the spaniels, collectively known as Land Spaniels, were bred together and later classified depending on size and colour.
​
They were selectively bred for suitability for their work and for the terrain. It was a requirement that a Cocker Spaniel should simply be under 25 lbs in weight. Whilst blacks dominated the rings in the early shows, Welsh Springer outcross was used to establish parti-coloured lines.
​
The Cocker Spaniel earns the epithet 'the merry cocker' for his ever-wagging tail denoting his happy temperament. In the early 20th century the breed was at its height of popularity and it remains hugely popular as a family pet.
​
Lifespan of a Cocker Spaniel
​
The average lifespan of a cocker spaniel is 10-12 years
​
Care Of A Cocker Spaniel
​
Regular grooming is required to keep them in top condition, with groomer visits every 6-8 weeks recommended, as they have a medium length shedding coat.
Under the age of 18 months while their bones are still forming, minimal exercise is advised between 10-20 minutes’ walk twice daily, once in adulthood 1 hour+ per day is advisable.
