He really hates getting his nails trimmed, but he's too much of a proper English gentleman to say so! ❤️
I caught that too, not too fond of the spritzer either.
Our stiff upper lip shall never be compromised 🤣
Nice say😁👍
Dawn Michelle, my dog hates being brushed, the only difference between Griffin and Bella is she lets you know all about that and how upset she is at you, for taking care of her,and Griffin doesn’t bark, howl loudly or try to escape me when the shower/ groom process is about to begin.
English gentlemen raped and ransacked half the world, but yes haha muh tee time, innit.
I had an English Springer; he was incredibly smart and attentive to us, and would barely leave our side. He taught our kids to crawl and walk, to share and be gentle, I'm surprised he didn't detail our car. He lived to be 16! It's been almost 20 years and we still miss him and talk about him.
What was his name ?
@@seth1455 what a thoughtful question.. and now I want to know as well. :)
@@seth1455 His name was Chester!
Aww what an amazing coincidence we have similar stories! I too had a English Springer named Chester only that I grew up with him and he almost made to 16, passed away the summer we both turned 15. So 25 years ago here. He also was also one in a million 💕
🥲
Can't believe, that this good boy is already 9! Looks like a one-year-old puppy
The owners have taken good care of him!
Our GSP is like that. People think he’s 2-3, but he’s 8.
I have a Brittany Spaniel who never grew to full size so everyone thinks he's a puppy despite him being 8! They're naturally young looking dogs anyway though until they go grey :)
You took the words out of my mouth - a real baby face 😍
I grew up with a springer, people thought she was a puppy even through she was over 12 years old.
In the early 2000s, my dad was coming home from an overnight shift at the port, and he saw a dog just like Griffin looking confused and scared on the road. He picked her up and brought her home, and we spent a long time washing the icicles from her fur and trying to keep her warm. She was terrified of any loud noises. If anyone raised their voice, she ran to my brother's room, stuck her head under his bed, and put her paws over her ears.
We didn't have Google back then, but we asked around and found out that she was an English Springer Spaniel. Certainly someone would be looking for her! We called our local vet and put up posters, but nobody came. That was fine by us, because she was slowly coming out of her shell.
We moved from the city to 80 acres of wild property. This girl blossomed. She was so happy, her little nubby tail never stopped wagging, so we called her Wags. She was the happiest girl, who loved being able to dig holes wherever she wanted and run all over God's creation. Wags brought us so much joy for many years before passing away around 2015.
Seeing Griffin brings back so many wonderful memories. His family is so blessed to have him.
Beautiful story. Thank you
This is so cute 💜 aww I'm glad you got to spend time with her 💘💘💘
what a great story! We gave our spaniel a nice elegant name before we discovered her love of muddy puddles and getting dirty at every opportunity. Now her nickname is "wriggles" in Chinese and it couldn't suit her better. I'm just happy to be able to give something else such a nice life full of exploration and waggy tails!
Aww, I know you must miss Wags. So glad you guys saved her and have her a good home! Beautiful story ❤️
Wags was an angel.
He looked so pitiful when his nails were being clipped. Gryphon is too cute.
It's funny that he stuck his tongue out everytime his nails were clipped XD
@@menschlicherroboter6791 He was doing that because he was nervous.
@@menschlicherroboter6791 A dog licking his lips is a sign of nervousness.
English springer spaniels don't calm down until the day they pass on. Our Springer was named Bobo, got him in highschool when I was 15. He waited for me to get off the bus every day after school. He was there for my wedding/first house/first son. He was the furry brother I never had. Bobo lived a long happy life for 16 years. I'll never forget him.
You speak 100% truth! And, if you are (human) childless, the child you never had. They'll love you to death -- with more to spare for everyone else around you!
❤my springer made it to 15. He hated bath time . His name was Hershey 😢
have friends with one of those. At a church function, he brought "his hunting dog" and told folks she wasn't all that friendly. Next thing I know there is a Springer Spaniel in my lap, and when she jumped down, it was straight to some kids where she played the rest of the day... His wife later told me that dog has been useless for hunting ever since. Pet now...perfect... ;-) Good Dog...
I was a boi. They were two girls. Can I make IT any more obvious? I am RUclips's ALPHA MALE. Acknowledge IT, dear james
@@AxxLAfriku p
pardon?
@@skullsnbones_ It's a bot, report and move on
I have a working spaniel. He's does his job when he's called upon but an absolute nutter at home and loves EVERYONE especially kids. Perhaps we're just lucky that he can switch between roles with ease lol. Such a sweet lad he is.
@@AxxLAfriku OK avril levigne
Griffin's a good boy. He has such a handsome profile, especially after his grooming session. Such a sweet face, too.
Gryphon*
We had a springer growing up and she was the sweetest dog. She would smile whenever people came over. The only downside is she we get burs and poplar seeds stuck in her coat, which wasn't fun to deal with
Burs are the worst.
Had a long hair shitzu get them on her head and ears. I had to use a flea comb to get them out. It took a long time.
My mom's apartment has chestnut trees and when her Shih Tzu/Bicchon mix was a puppy, he'd hide chestnuts in his mouth (I swear I'm not trying to make a joke, lol) and get leaves in his fur. I'd bring him back inside and while plucking the leaves out, I'd notice he's not looking at me and kept guiltily averting his eyes. That's when I'd get him to spit out his hoard, lol. He'd look both ashamed of his actions and mad that I took them away 😂
Have you any advice for dealing with burrs? I have a cocker spaniel and a spaniel mix and and they occasionally get little burrs and sticks and things stuck to them
@@dariel7001 We used to just pick/comb/cut out the real bad ones. There's a video of a lady using coconut oil on her samoyed dogs that apparently works good too, for the real stubborn ones
@@dariel7001 A flea comb has worked for me but it is a nuisance.
He has the most soulful eyes. You can tell he really doesn't want to be there, but he's also smart enough to know that he'll feel better afterwards so he'll put up with it.
Damn Gryphon is well behaved and polite, he was so not having a good time, but being a good boy took precedent over complaining . Husky’s need to start taking notes
A lot of spaniels are pleasers. They have a sweet temperament and are fine with people being in charge.
Huskies are goofing off in the back of the classroom and are not very good note-takers
@@Mhill08huskies are the stars of the track team. My sister had one who kept running away. We got calls from people all over town telling us that they'd found her dog. 😂
Griffin is gorgeous. I lost my spanna 18 months ago, and I can confirm that they are a truly lovely breed. I can also confirm that they believe clean water is toxic, while their obsession with muddy puddles that have goodness only knows what in them is second only to the promise of a tennis ball. They would run until their legs fell off, and still try after that.
They are also oddly dirt proof. They could come in from a walk, filth from nose to tail, throw themselves to the ground (SO dramatic) and fall asleep. Half an hour later, a spotless spanna would stand up, leaving a dog-shaped dirt pile behind.
I miss you Jakey Jake. Bonkers and completely fearless like all the best spannas are, and such a good, good boy.
Gryphon*
Can confirm the mud xD I spent maybe a year of my childhood putting down newspaper for him to dry off in a backroom after coming back from exercise. Drowned in mud and then perfectly clean.
This is the most hippy-ish looking dog I’ve even seen. What a good boy.
"Hey, I just point at the birds, run and grab 'em, man."
Springers really are wonderful dogs, our family has had a couple of them. Our old boy was the sweetest dog I've ever met, hands down. He wouldn't jump up on you, he almost never barked, when you came home he would politely wait for you to untie your shoes and then he would be so happy when you pet him. He would never run off, he was never aggressive. Always loved to cuddle.
Dear girl with dogs. You made me learn lot about them and how to handle them. I'm scared of dogs but I'm overcoming it.. Lots of love from India. ♥️♥️♥️
Best of luck!
I have a friend who was adopted in India when she was 3 and brought to the US. Her home had a husky, and she was so scared of it at first, but now she loves dogs! I’m sure you will get over your fear too☺️
@@kittywizard7777 thank you 😊
@@Nancy-in4tn Dogs are the best! They have so much unconditional love to give you. Dogs are the best friend you could ever have. I'm proud of you for trying to overcome that fear! ❤🙂
Yey! I’m so happy you found this helpful.
Oh how could you not fall in love with those eyes. My heart just dropped when he was looking straight into the camera. Such a gentleman. My mama has always wanted a cocker spaniel.
Spingers definitley have a lot of personality in their eyes, especially the liver and white ones it seems. I've had 3 black and whites and 1 liver, and the liver has these beautiful, almost human like eyes. Her eyelashes are super long and pretty too, almost like she has extensions
What a great boy, his soul is right in those eyes.
My grandparent's next door neighbor had a springer spaniel named Heather when I was a kid. She was a lovely dog! She would run along the fence, tail wagging, when my sister and I came to visit. She'd lean up against the fence between the yards as she trotted along so we'd run with her and pet her. I don't remember her barking. She would 'mruph' instead.
English Springer Spaniels are the BEST dogs! I've had 7 of them in my 53 years, each one with a totally unique personality, but each as sweet as the one before. They can be a handful because of their energy and intelligence (they tend to find trouble A LOT) and the shedding is non-stop. Overall they are great with kids and other pets.
When I was younger, our spaniel (when she was a puppy)used to unlock her crate from the inside, and then open our other dogs crate. The spaniel would get on top of any table/counter/shelf to get food despite the gates and barriers in place. Truly a remarkably smart dog lol
Growing up, my family obtained a rejected Springer from the breeder for free. My dad wanted a pure bred dog but didn't want to pay (that's another story). The dog was soooooo naughty and incredibly fearless. Granted he was not properly trained he would run for hours and dive for rocks in the creek and seemingly not tire. Omg he was a terrible escape artist, charging the door if anyone came to visit where he'd run around around tramping flowers for ours. We could not train him to stay off furniture. As soon as we left he'd sit on my mom's luxury sofa like a king with a view out the bay window. He also swiped a sandwich right out of my dad's hands mid-bite. He liked starting fights with other dogs-- nothing malicious, he was just an ass trying to hump everyone. He jumped off the roof of a house, landing on an umbrella table, got hit by a car, ate rat poison and drank gallons of filthy creek water and he lived to be 16 until we had to put him down. He was even excited to go to his final destination and fought until the very end. I feel badly that he wasn't properly trained, but he'd been returned twice to the breeder. He really did his own thing and I believe in his mind the punishment was always worth the crime.
MsPuggles “nothing malicious just being an ass and trying to hump everyone”
😂😂😂 thank you for sharing!
@RaniaIsAwesome Sounds like springer rage/guarding behaviour. It happens when they're not trained out of it and gets worse if you don't get a handle on it. It certainly wasn't normal for your dog to attack you - springers are normally much more controlled than that and love kids to the point of deference.
@@itsonlysound Good thoughts. We've had springers (no secret, my YT "handle") all our lives. Rage, despite the reports (it's the squeaky wheels, however rare, that get heard and then proliferated "out there" - making it seem a more regular "thing" - not the good ones) - an anomaly borne out of abuse and/or bad back-yard or irresponsible puppy mill breeding and/or (exacerbated by) combo of poor/absent socialization and even rudimentary training. I had one, beautiful 5 yr male rescue that was heading that direction were it not for our intervention... Some discipline (gentle but firm) letting him know he was loved but definitely not the alpha in the house, and some training--admittedly more difficult if older-- staved off most of if. Maybe 5% remained, an occasional "where did that come from?" no-teeth throat growl "brain tick" if he was displeased with something that we said or did... Remnant from abuse (unknown if...) or other combo of the above "maladies." Incredible dogs, I am biased, but to me the greatest-- and as so many have said those eyes!... but as with any breed (except Goldens - am sure not true but at least it seems!), know--via as much research as you can re background--what you're getting.
What a beautiful boy!! That look when you are clipping his nails, "I hope I get some treats for all this fuss". 🐶🐶🐶🐶
The absolute definition of the term 'Kind eyes'.
I used to go out with my best friend and his springer when I was a kid. Her name was Blue, and she was the sweetest dog. We taught her to fetch, point and retrieve from all kinds of places, and she never got tired. We always got tired before she did! Her cuddles and licks used to be the highlight of my week ❤
What a well behaved dog!
I lost my sweet boy in 2006. It still hurts to this day. Gryphon reminds me so much of him.
Vanessa, you should add a calendar with some of the funniest happy hoody pics to your merch :-)
Oh I love that idea!
Great Idea!
And funny blow dryer pics! I’m always laughing so hard when their mouth floppedyflops in the air 😂😂
I would definitely buy that!
Excellent!
I love Springers! I had one years ago named Maggie. Got her when she was 7 weeks ago and she was my baby (and I hers) from the start. She was the sweetest, most affectionate dog I have ever had. One time I was away from her for a few months. When I returned home, my wife opened the front door and Maggie jumped straight up into my arms as soon as she saw me. I still miss her today!
Spaniels are so much fun. So active and enthusiastic and who doesn't love those big ears? 😆
Thank you for finally doing a Springer! ♥️ This breed has my heart. I had one as a childhood partner in crime. We have 2 now (14yr old and 4yr old) and wouldn't change it for the world! Best dogs ever! ♥️
Thank heavens spaniels have a really long life! Hope your elder one sees a few years longer!!
@@Entropy__ Thank you, we do too! At least another year maybe. ♥️
This little guy just stole my heart. One of the most beautiful, sweet, adorable stars of this channel for sure. I wish I could have one like him, but I am allergic and also probably not able to offer him the exercise he needs. One can dream...
You could basically buy a tennis ball...and throw it. They will chase for /days/; tiring them out is near bloody impossible. I tried with my guy :P
Here's Gryphon, doing GwtD a solid by soldiering through the process, even when that nail clipping was less than pleasant. What a champ.
Gotta balance out the huskies and Mayonnaise's of the world somehow 🤣🤣
Gryphon's eyes are so beautiful! Magnificent animal! 🙂
I'm glad to see a springer spaniel on the channel. It's been 2 years since we had to out down our 13 year old springer and I miss him everyday. My family lives on a lake in a rural area and our springer would swim, chase critters, and play in the grass from sunrise till sundown. He looked like a 2 year old dog till the last day.
She's absolutely right! Only exception is our 2yo has a limited amount of energy. 30min tops. After that he's done for the day. He is the most sweetest, loving pup ever. If it were up to him we'd spend the entire day cuddled on the couch. And may I say, he's the best guard dog I know.... at least against all the birds and squirrels that dare enter our yard.
Same! My european english springer is ready for an adventure but after about 30 minutes she falls asleep for the rest of the day. On top of me. 🤣🤣
@@carolinegarrett3542 I've been searching so hard for a euro springer in the states but it's difficult to find for me. Which country did u get your pup from? 🐶
@@fishnuggets6624 Lone Star Springers!! Located in Texas.
Uhhh what? Sounds like my kinda dog!!
Story time: I had a springer spaniel named Millie when I was a kid, and we kept her bib and skirt long most of the time. She loved going to the groomers and always came home looking very proud of how cute she looked! That is... Until the fateful day.
We lived in a place with a big back yard and hill behind us, and unfortunately Millie's skirt got FULL of burs and mats one week. My mom requested that the groomer shave the bib/skirt off so we could start over. When I tell you that Millie was mortified... She came home tail down and looking so embarrassed. Poor baby, but we couldn't help laughing because her little belly was so round compared to her skinny legs! (I promise that was the only time we ever had to shave her lol. We took good care of her coat!)
I had a cocker spaniel growing up who always paraded around the house when she came home from the groomer. She liked looking pretty. She even usually got a bow barrette.
She got into the burrs on the edge of our deck ALL THE TIME. Nightmare!
“His cat…”. Yes, that is exactly how my GSD thought of the cat.
I love when dogs have pet cats! Someone summed it up in comments on a video from the Dodo: “When you’re a dog person but your dog is a cat person.”
@@catc8927 I couldn’t agree more! 🤣
Our Springer puppy is definitely the older Springer's baby. He loves that puppy and really mommies her.
The smile he gave at the end made my heart melt. ❤ He was such a sweetheart for the whole groom.
I love the interesting facts about the dogs u groom! Thank u for uploading all the time and have a good day everyone! 😉😁
you know the paw pads need digging out when you hear the machine struggling ! love that part !
lovely dog, great video as always
I see these dogs absolutely everywhere in the UK, it's nice to see one in america as I thought they weren't very popular over there
She's in Ontario, Canada, I believe! I've definitely seen spaniels all over in my Canadian province as well!
Glad most UK springer's tails aren't docked these days.
I've never seen one in person before! Though I've seen plenty of German Shorthair Pointers and Labs, they're other kinds of bird dogs.
just need to attend a dog show to see how popular Springers are. my guy was a show dog and lived 13 1/2 yrs. he did everything but speak human languages (French and English) ashe understood both. still miss him.
@@IveJustHadAPiss I think it's banned in the UK, I'm in the US my dog was docked when I bought him.
I have an English springer spaniel, it’s her 13th birthday today and I’m making her carrot cake. They are definitely high energy and fairly vocal but like their noises if excitement and the begging noises are just so damn cute. No one can resist spaniel puppy eyes
We had two Springers growing up, Jenny (aka Moose) and Ranger; they were both absolutely wonderful dogs; I still miss them and think about them decades later.
One of my favourite breeds. Our neighbours had one when I was a kid and I used to spend time with her playing in their garden almost every day. I loved that dog 😊
I grew up with English Springers, they're wonderful animals and companions. Always hold a special place in my heart
I have had springers my whole life, I’m so glad I got to see them represented on the channel. Warms my heart, they’re angels!❤️
They have that English discipline
Same here! My first dog at age 5 was a springer, and now I have 3 springer girls! RIP Scooby 2007-2021, you were the best first dog a boy could ask for 😊❤️
He’s looking great for a 9 year old!
My guy looked basically the same until he was 12-13; and lived to 16. They last a long time if exercised!
@@Entropy__ Thanks for the info, I’ve always liked ESP’s they just seem to be a real “peoples dog” if that makes sense.
@@Smokeyr67 Ye. Definitely planning on getting one, once have a mortgage sorted. Bloody adulthood is far less than that I thought growing up!
Those eyes can never ever be denied.
What an absolute sweetheart 😍
Had a springer spaniel for 16 years; my entire childhood. He was such a good boy - would chase /anything/ for the whole day!
Your videos are therapeutic for me, not sure why, but they keep me relaxed.
Thank you. ❤️
Greetings from Eastern Europe! 🇷🇸
Me and my family adopted a Springer Spaniel when I was starting highschool. She was probably the happiest and playfulist dog I had ever seen. It didnt matter what mood you were in, she would run up to you and try to make you happy as much as she could. Her name, was Lovey-Dovey, or Dovey for short. When you said they have lovey-dovey personalities I immedately thought of her. She unfortanually passed away about 3 years ago with her second family. My parents at the time were going through a seperation and we couldnt take care of her anymore. Luckily my mom had a friend who was very good with rehoming dogs and found her a loving family who had recently gone through loosing one of the children. We spent 7 wonderful years with her and her second family spent 2. She was 9 years old when she passed and we buried her in her favorite spot in our yard. This breed of dog will always have a special place in our hearts, so I was happy to see this video today. Thank you for showing us how wonderful this breed is, and reminding me and my family of our wonderful Lovey-Dovey.
Absolutely adorable 🥰 griffin. What a cute loving face and personality
He is so handsome, he was so good re bath brush nails etc. My neice has 2 springers... They love working and cuddles. They also compete to see who is the goofiest!!
Lost my heart to the big GSD and his minder, the cat.
Thank you for sharing all these cute moments with us...
He looks a lot like the dog that my grandpa had, his name was Rocky and he was one of the goofiest dogs I'd ever known. I miss him, thank you for making the content you do!
I also had a Springer named Rocky !
Such a sweetheart … hard to believe they’re so energetic, Gryphon looked very subdued/calm through his whole spa treatment, including nail trim! Good boy, for sure - and Jack and Noelle were lovely, too!
Even though Spaniels seem to be powered by Duracell, most of them are well behaved if properly trained and socialized. They are a great family dog for active people.
Vanessa, what I appreciate most about your channel, is the time you take to give a breed profile for each dog/cat. As more people become better versed in breed personality and such, I think we'll hopefully begin to see less doggos being sent to shelters because their owners couldn't handle them anymore.
Your work is invaluable!❤❤❤
I've been waiting for a springer to appear on the channel! We had a welsh springer that passed away a little over a year ago. She was like my little sister and she always wanted to be around when something happened. Although all springers are beautiful, the welshies do have a very special place in my heart because of Ruth ❤
Gorgeous boy! So very good, too. Great before and after. Loved the GSD and his cat, too!
What a wonderful temperament. Spaniels are so wonderful. What a good Boi Griffin is!
Wow, I had a Springer Spaniel when I was a kid, Molly, what a gorgeous and sweet breed. Thanks for bringing back that memory!
I have a Springer/Cocker Spaniel cross. And when you said 'lovely Dovey' I smiled because mine is exactly like that the biggest softie. Griffin is a beautiful dog and I wish him and his humans well.
The little nose lick every time you clipped a nail 😁 so cute x
That might look cute, but the dog is trying to tell you it's anxious.
Unfortunately, that's just part of needing to get nails clipped.
@@1AnimalWhisperer So we agree then
What a handsome boy! He looks very young for 9 years old. I also love the shared pets - so sweet.
I love Springers.. I had one she was the best dog I’d ever had.. Great with kids and stuff
He has the sweetest face and a wonderful disposition.
He has a look that makes me want to cuddle him for the rest of the day❤❤❤
This dog breed is a keeper. What a beautiful and calm dog.
That close-up of her face was heart melting!!🥰just gorgeous!
Oh my goodness, that sweet face! What a doll.
Dogs with long floppy ears always look like they have pigtails. So cute🥰
One of my all-time favorite breeds! I've had several over the years - salt-and-pepper, liver-and-white, field and bench bred - and your description of them is very accurate. 🥰
These animal groomings always cheer me up. Thank you for your hard work!
my grandparents had two english springer spaniels, one after the other, when i was growing up. both those boys were the sweetest, most gentle dogs i've ever met. both of them, without fail, would HAVE to sit on your lap if you decided to sit on the porch swing. they were both convinced they were tiny lap dogs 😁
I love how she covered his eyes while spraying his ears, my hairdresser does the same for me when she sprays on hairspray 🤣
my springers tail wasnt docked, so happy it wasnt. shes so cute, gets long leg and tail feathers. the kindest and most attentive dog ive ever known.
I'm not sure how I came across your channel - probably some late night scrolling! - but it is one of the best finds I have ever made on RUclips. Your videos are not only interesting and insightful into your career, but they always leave me feeling I have watched something that makes me feel contentment. Please keep doing what you're doing and sharing these snapshots with us!
Our english springer spaniel Sandy died recently at age 15. I grew up with her and she was the sweetest girl with insatiable appetite for both food and love and I miss her every day. Thank you for making this amazing video (that might have made me cry a little bit). ❤️
Griffen is gorgeous and well behaved! Also loved the dog of the day along with the 🐈😸
Hi 👋 dear, how are you doing?
Love this breed! I've never had one, but I've had multiple neighbors with one or more and they've always been lovable and well-behaved. I watched my neighbors two springers whenever he left town and they were goofballs; I inadvertently trained them to come back to me whenever I gave a sharp crack of my hands, and that speaks to how easy to train they are.
I have a Springerdoodle and he is such a friendly fun gentleman, I’m sure he got it from his Springer momma 💖 his occasional shenanigans definitely from his smart ass poodle papa
Spring meadows cologne for a spaniel! How perfectly matching!
His sweet and trusting face makes my heart smile......with speckled pink toe-beans for the win. What a beautiful furbaby. Awesome job as always.🐶👏🏼🥰
Reminds me of my springer, Weyland Yutani. My rescue boy that was my best friend and brother for 11 years. Rip boy. I miss you everyday
Such a proper young lad! And such adorable eyes and floppy ears
awh he reminds me of my english springer growing up. her name was brandi and she had a little patch of white fur on the back of her neck shaped like a heart :) she lived 16 long years but we sadly had to put her down just after christmas 6 going on 7 years ago due to her old age. she had arthritis and was missing most of her teeth and had three tumors we couldn’t afford to get removed but at that point she was in pain and too old to live comfortably for much longer for it to be really worth it. spaniels are such amazing dogs and i seriously can’t wait to get another one when im older.
Hi I love ur vids me and my family have been going through a rough patch in life and ur videos help me so much:)
I had a family friend with a cocker spaniel, she had dementia and even though she was always kind of confused she was very sweet and gentle and happy as long as she was getting love.
First dog I ever had was an English Springer, my friend in primary schools mum bred them and she had a bit of a 'weird one', so I ended up with him. He was just too massive to be a show dog so a field dog it was. Much bigger than the leaner show dogs, bulked out like a rottweiler with much longer feathering on the legs and belly once he was full grown but the most gentle dog you'd ever meet and we spent my later teenage years getting him up to speed as a gun dog- not the greatest retriever but a solid for flushing game and could swim like a fish.
If you do get one, or any of the spaniels they need their ears and paws checked after a good run to make sure there's no burrs or seeds stuck in them, walk them often and brush 2-3x a week
Such a pretty dog. My first dog was an English Springer Spaniel and she was such a wonderful companion for a little boy. She lived to be 14.
As usual, informative and enjoyable
Good to see a springer here! I have my own springer, He is the best hyperactive fuzzball i could ever want!
I had my Springer Spaniel, Princess, for over 17 years. What a beautiful loving girl. I surprised you didn't mention anything about the ear wax build up for Spaniels.
Is that a thing?? My mo is almost 70 years old with a spaniel puppy 3mos
Ours don't have that problem. I do clean their ears every few months (now that I learnt how to do it from GWTD) but I wouldn't say they ever had lots of wax
I was SOOooo glad to find your video grooming this adorable Springer! I had a Salilyn pedigree male from '79-'88 & he was THE most bestest doggie I've ever had.....& gorgeous. He sat proudly in my front seat w/ his chest out, making strangers ohh & ahh.
Gryphan is so pretty, his eyes are just enchanting.
This dog breed heals humans
Aww, he was so well behaved! When I was a kid my uncle, who was a police sergeant, had two police dogs. One was a springer spaniel called Toby and he was a drug sniffer dog. He was nuts, but in a wonderful way, and so loving. It's been many decades but I still miss Toby. RIP best boy.
My brother's Springer had ticklish feet, we'd wipe his paws when we got back from a walk and Baxter would be doing a two-step to keep his feet away from us lol
My parents welcomed me and a springer spaniel pup into their home at the same time. He was my best friend. He knew when i arrived home from school each day and ran down the street to greet me. Most loyal dog if all time.
I grew up with a Spaniel mix, mostly Springer. Absolutely phenomenal dog. My sister found him as an abandoned puppy when I was 6. He lived a good long life and passed when I was 24. Spot...lol...was the best.
Springer Spaniels are amazing as family dogs, I grew up with one, may he rest in peace, and now I have 2 of them. I can't imagine owning another type of dog, they're just amazing, beautiful dogs!
Shaving out the pawpads is my favorite part. Griffin is a good boy!
I'm glad I finally came across this video. The first dog I ever owned was an English Springer and she was the best dog I ever owned. Loved her to death. She had a real affinity for water and you could not pass up a lake or pond without her insisting on a swim. Even a puddle was irresistible. I shaved her once or twice a year.
