My OH and I are looking at getting our own place before the end of the year and I can't have a home without a dog, so we are thinking of getting a Spaniel puppy.

I can't quite decide between a cocker and springer at the moment, and we are arguing over colours too lol, so I'd like to see some pics of your Spaniels please, as I know there are a fair few on here.

Thank you in advance.
 
This is Alice aged 5 months :) (Sorry if pic is huge).

OMG..I love the third to last and the last pic of Henry! Hope he held his breath when he plunged his head under the water. lol

Here's Harvey when we picked him up just before Christmas

Purdey is our first spaniel. We chose a Springer because my OH wanted a gun-dog and I have always loved watching the springers work when we go on a shoot - they work so hard and tirelessly!

Here's our baby in a typical springer pose:

Unless you are prepared to do a LOT of exercise and training, I would steer clear of a Springer! As Nickijem has already said, they work hard and tirelessly, that goes for everything they do in life, a 20 minute stroll does not make the slightest impact on their energy. Any Spaniel is high energy, but a Springer is the max!
