For people who don’t know much about dogs, many dogs look like the same type from the outside, but upon inquiry they don’t belong to the same kind of dog, like the Cocker Spaniel and the Spaniel. In appearance, they have a slight resemblance to each other, but upon closer inspection, they are very different. So which is better, the Cocker Spaniel or the Springer Spaniel? Let’s talk about this topic in more detail.
In fact, in terms of appearance, the Cocker Spaniel is a bit prettier than the Spaniel. They both have vertical ears and very hairy ears, which can be a lot of work to take care of. And comparatively, the coat of the Cocker Spaniel is longer than that of the Spaniel. It is known that dogs shed and the longer the coat the harder it is to take care of and the more effort it takes.
In terms of breeding, the Spaniel is actually a bit smarter, more trainable I should say, and can quickly grasp the essentials and understand people’s commands during normal training. But the Cocker Spaniel is not too bad, as long as more practice, it can become a very good partner.
In addition, dogs need a certain amount of food every day to ensure its energy and nutrition. Compared to other dogs, the Koka may need more meat, which may be related to its own pedigree. Long ago, the Cocker Spaniel existed as a hunting dog, and its agility and speed are very strong, and this type of energy is supplemented by meat, so they have the ability to consume energy very quickly in their bodies.
That said, it is also important to make sure that dogs get plenty of exercise during the week. Koka, needless to say, used to be the running type and will be suffocated if he is not allowed to exercise more. Spaniels also love the outdoors and don’t like to be kept in a home. So owners need to be patient and spend time with them.
Which is better, the Cocker Spaniel or the Springer Spaniel? This question is actually relative, and through the above brief description of the two types of dogs, I believe they have already had some consideration in your mind. In fact, each dog is very good, and what the owner has to consider is which type of dog is suitable for me.
