The first American Cocker Spaniel arrived into Australia in the 1960s and were originally bred and used as successful gun & hunting dogs to flush ground dwelling game but are now a very strong competitor in dog shows, obedience, agility, scent work, field work and excel best as companion dogs
The smallest of the gun dog breeds, the American Cocker Spaniel is intelligent, gentle, playful, devoted, dependable, loving and can be quite amusing
Whilst the American Cocker coat looks very elegant when in ‘Full Coat’ this is generally kept in a Pet Clip leaving the coat shorter in length and much easier to maintain
