The American Cocker Spaniel was bred specifically for hunting by the feather. This small, energetic dog comes from Great Britain. It has a very interesting, long history. The first essays on spaniels date back to the fourteenth century. True, then these animals were called “Spanish dogs”. In those days, these dogs were used as bird hunters. They are small, fast, agile. But in the realities of the modern world, the hunting qualities of the Cocker Spaniel have regressed. However, they still affect the character, some habits of the animal.
