Living with the breed
Life with an English Springer Spaniel
English Springer Spaniels are affectionate, intelligent and people-centred. They thrive when included in family life and given consistent guidance, physical activity and meaningful engagement.
- 01
Companionship
Springers usually want to be involved. They are not well suited to a life of prolonged isolation and often form close bonds with their people.
- 02
Exercise and training
They are active, capable dogs that benefit from daily exercise, mental work and kind, consistent training. Young dogs need age-appropriate activity rather than uncontrolled physical strain.
- 03
Grooming
The coat, ears, feet and feathering require regular attention. Routine brushing, bathing, ear care and trimming help maintain comfort as well as appearance.
- 04
Choosing the right individual
Within any litter, puppies differ in energy, confidence and sensitivity. A careful breeder considers the whole household when matching a puppy with a family.
