Cocker Spaniel puppies for sale in Saskatchewan

Breed history

The Cocker Spaniel is a breed with a rich history, originally bred for its exceptional skills as a hunting dog, particularly for hunting woodcock, which is where the breed gets its name. Cocker Spaniels originated in the United Kingdom and were classified as part of the spaniel family, which includes a range of breeds known for their retrieving and flushing abilities. The American Cocker Spaniel, a separate variety from the English Cocker Spaniel, was developed in the United States and is known for its slightly smaller size and distinctive appearance, including a more rounded head and a shorter muzzle. Both types of Cocker Spaniels are beloved for their friendly and affectionate nature, making them excellent family pets.
