This breed is known as a merry Cocker as its charming personality and continuously happy disposition makes it the world's most popular household pet. The English Cocker Spaniel is an inseparable friend of children, so it is your ideal choice if you are looking for a tail wagger friend for your kids. It is respectful of its master's authority without much challenge.
This sweet, sensitive and endearing breed is equally suited to life as a gundog (bold and keen to work) or as a household pet. It is gentle, trusting, eternally optimistic and always ready to cheer you up. The Cocker Spaniel will do okay in an apartment if it is adequately exercised, and is fairly active indoors. If you have a small yard your Cocker Spaniel will be happy.
