English Cocker Spaniels are distinguished by their medium size, long ears, and cheerfulness. They used to hunt birds— including woodcocks— in England, thus their name "Cocker." English Cockers grow up to be excellent companions if given enough exercise. With their affectionate and highly adaptable personality, this breed makes perfect dogs for apartment dwellers.
You may be wondering what makes English Cokers different from Cocker Spaniels. Well, actually, these two used breeds to be identified as the same. However, around the 1930s, they were classified into separate breeds, following the concern that American Cockers are actually different from the English ones.
For one, English Cockers have a larger body than the Americans. In addition, their body types are also different. Lastly, English Cockers tend to enjoy spending time outdoors with their Field Spaniel, Welsh, and English Springer Spaniel cousins much more than the American Cockers do. Your local veterinarian Evergreen Animal Hospital KY can provide you more information.
