Did you know?
Cocker Spaniels adore the water and will happily immerse themselves in puddle and ponds, regardless of the temperature.
Cockers do require a bit of attention on the grooming front as their longish hair needs to be brushed and combed regularly. This helps stop their long fur from tangling.
It’s a great idea to groom them when you return from walk or outdoor exercise to get rid of anything that may have gotten stuck in their fur.
As you can see, there are many reasons why this popular breed is adored by many.
