English Springer Spaniel puppies for sale in Manitoba

Breed history

The English Springer Spaniel is one of the oldest sporting dog breeds, with origins tracing back to medieval England. Bred to work closely with hunters, their primary role was to "spring" game, flushing birds from dense cover so they could be caught or shot. By the 19th century, Springers were distinguished from their smaller cousins, the Cocker Spaniels, and refined into a breed known for its versatility, stamina, and friendly disposition. Today, they’re beloved both as skilled hunting companions and as affectionate, energetic family pets.
