Cocker SpanielThe Cocker Spaniel, Cocker Spaniel or American, is a not very large dog with an adorable hair when properly maintained. This breed of dog originally developed for hunting birds. Its main function as a hunter was to raise the dam and then collect it. It is distinguished in this work by the ease with which to get into the bushes and other dense vegetation.
At present the Cocker Spaniel is still used in hunting but it is also used as a pet and companion dog. Calm temperament of this dog, once you've done your daily exercise, allowed it to be used as a therapy dog for disabled people and the elderly, which is developing a very admirable job. This breed is very popular in the United States. |

As a pet
This dog is a wonderful pet for adults who can spend time with the dog. Its not very large size allows it to adapt well to life in apartment or house. However, this breed has certain requirements that if we take into account, its usefulness as a pet can be much more appreciated:
• In homes where children have to be careful because some of these dogs have a tendency to respond with a scolding when disturbed. Scolding being a grunt or a bite. At least you teach children that the dog must be respected and that is not a toy. And take it to the dog obedience classes since he is a puppy and try that daily walks where there are other dogs and people to socialize.
• Properly trained and socialized, you can do well with other dogs in the house.
• Since it is a little puppy you must define who is boss in the house, without abuse or physical shock, nor allow malacrianzas the dog.
• These dogs like to stay in the company of their owners and also have a task to develop. Which means that you should not ignore and we must make him feel needed. Otherwise the dog will be bored and then proceeds to make disasters in the house or yard.
• As a hunting dog requires exercise. The beautiful appearance of this dog is somewhat misleading. Yes it is a very nice dog, but also a dog of great physical requirement. His prized place among the hunting dogs still maintains it. In competitions of agility it does very well. As a pet, these instincts have to be pleased every day, taking a walk and maybe letting him run a bit in a controlled place (as an enclosure).
• Hair must be served daily and occasionally receive the assistance of a professional groomer. The groomer also you can cut nails and clean the ears and teeth.
