Sweet-natured, happy, gentle, and playful.

He does need regular exercise, but daily walks and romps will suffice.

About the breed:

Cocker Spaniels need a great deal of brushing, combing, and clipping. They shed a lot and often have a distinctive doggy odor in their skin and long ears. They're very sensitive dogs -- often hypersensitive. You have to be careful when correcting them with your hands, as a lot of them tend to react defensively when you try to make them do something they don't want to do. More than any other breed, Cocker Spaniels tend toward excitable or submissive urination (tendency to dribble urine when excited or nervous), especially when they're young.

If you want a dog who:

> Is conveniently-sized and sturdy
> Has a pretty feathered coat that comes in a variety of colors
> Needs only moderate exercise
> Is friendly, or at least polite, with strangers
> Is peaceful with other pets

An American Cocker Spaniel may be right for you.

If you don't want to deal with:

> An extremely careful search to avoid all the nasty, neurotic Cocker Spaniels
> "Separation anxiety" (destructiveness and barking) when left alone too much
> Frequent brushing, combing, and clipping
> Lots of shedding (If kept in the air-con shedding won't occur)
> A distinctive odor from the skin and ears
> Potential for excessive barking
> Excitable or submissive urination (tendency to dribble urine when excited or nervous)
> A multitude of serious health problems

An American Cocker Spaniel may not be right for you.
