DESCRIPTION
TEMPERAMENT
Field Spaniels are responsive, friendly and lively. They are enthusiastic about their owners and eager to please. Field Spaniels are good at endurance and perseverance field trials, and get along with everyone. They are fun-loving, vocal, and love to play in the water. They have an even-temper, and have much the same personality as the Cocker Spaniel.
GROOMING
Moderate care of the Field Spaniel's silky coat is required. Recommended brushing for 5 minutes twice a week. Care must be taken so that the coat does not mat. Professional trimming should also been done a few times a year. Regular ear cleaning, as their ears may be prone to infection.
HEALTH
Hip dysplasia, eye problems such as ectropion, entropion, and PRA (Progressive Retinal Atrophy) and thyroid disease. Other health concerns include subaortic stenosis.
EXERCISE
Exercise is essential for the Field Spaniel as they are a very active breed. Frequent runs on a leash and a fenced in back yard are suggested.
TRAINING
Quick to learn, they respond to the sound of your voice. Kind and consistent training is recommended.
