About the American Cocker
Spaniel
 Just one gaze into
the expressive eyes of an American Cocker Spaniel, and most folks are hooked. This sweet,
sensitive and intelligent breed is as loyal and companionable as it is beautiful and
adorable.
Originally developed as a gun dog for hunting water fowl, the American Cocker
has found it's way into the hearts and homes of loving families world-wide.
The Cocker
Spaniel is an inseparable friend of children, and respectful of its master's authority
without much challenge. Merry and endearing, this happy tail wagger is gentle trusting,
intelligent, lively, playful and devoted. Cockers need people to be happy and love
everyone.
Although they can be a challenge to house break and some like to bark, Cockers
are fairly easy to train, provided the training is consistent and early. Cockers get along
well with cats and other animals, and make exceptional family pets.
They do equally well
in the city or the country, provided that they are given daily exercise.
The long, silky,
baby-fine coat requires daily brushing to keep it lustrous and tangle-free.
