The Show Cocker Spaniel is a small-sized breed. Males typically weigh between 13 and 16 kg when fully grown, while females weigh 11 to 14 kg. With an average lifespan of 11 to 14 years, the Show Cocker Spaniel is a moderately long-lived breed.
Show Cocker Spaniel dogs are friendly, alert, and full of personality. They are adaptable companions that suit a variety of living situations. They enjoy human company and do well with families, though interactions with young children should be supervised due to their smaller size. They are intelligent and respond well to positive training methods.
Show Cocker Spaniel dogs need about 30-60 minutes of daily exercise including walks and play. They are more active than their size suggests and enjoy exploring new environments. A secure garden is beneficial for off-lead play. They adapt well to both apartment and house living, provided they get regular outdoor time.
Show Cocker Spaniel dogs may be prone to patellar luxation, dental disease, ear infections, and eye problems common in small breeds. Regular veterinary check-ups help catch issues early. Maintaining a healthy weight is important as even small amounts of excess weight can stress their joints. Annual health screenings are recommended.
Show Cocker Spaniel dogs benefit from regular brushing to maintain a healthy coat and manage shedding. Bathing every 4-6 weeks or as needed keeps the coat clean. Regular dental care, nail trimming, and ear cleaning are part of a good grooming routine. Check for any skin irritation, lumps, or parasites during grooming sessions.
