English Springer Spaniel Training
Early socialization and training is encourage to help your English Springer Spaniel pup grow into a well-adjusted and well-behaved companion. This is especially true since these dogs can be hyper and active, and will easily slip into their own way. The sooner you get them into good habits, the better.
Start with the basics, like sit stay, come and potty. Once those are out of the way, you can work on more complicated feats like agility. It’s also important to target bad behaviour, like chewing, biting or sleeping on the bed, off the bat. Enforcing good habits will go a long way.
Selecting a English Springer Spaniel Puppy
English Springer Spaniel Puppy Ears
English Springer Spaniels ears are thin, soft, dangling and fall close to the cheek. Healthy puppies will have clean ears with no signs of discharge, redness, inflammation or pungent odour. If the puppy is aggressively scratching or pawing their ear, tilting their head or excessively flipping their head, it may also be a sign of discomfort. Breeds with floppy ears are more prone to infection or disease.
