I had a black English cocker. He lived for 18 years and was a THerapy trained dog who used to visit Retirement Homes and special schools. So easily trained. I miss him so much as he died 3 years ago.
I have an American cocker spaniel named Charley, and she's the sweetest, most affectionate dog I've ever had. She never leaves my side and always needs to be touching me. She does have separation anxiety, and as such we crate trained her as a puppy and we crate her at night and when we are away, but sometimes we'll let her snuggle with us at night, especially when it's cold. She loves it, possibly even more than we do. She just turned five in June, and she's a bit chubby, but still thinks she's a puppy. She hates her feet and ears touched, which makes grooming and cleaning her ears difficult, but she has come to accept that bath time means foot scrubbing and ear cleaning. She just got over a bad ear infection, and I don't expect her to have any more problems with her ears being cleaned lol
My only regret with getting a cocker spaniel is no one told me how expensive grooming was nor did they tell me how fast their coats grow. Got pretty expensive. Wife is starting to learn how to groom our cocker now.
I don't know what happened to the American Cocker Spaniel over the years but a lot of them look like the have headaches. The features have been pushed in and eyes pushed out to the sides with this big crown. I'm not disparaging anyone's dog in particular but this is not what the breed looked like in the 70's and 80's.
im about to get an american cocker spaniel poodle cross (cockapoo) in a few weeks. I wondered what the difference between american and english was so this vid was a great help thanks
I have a English cocker spaniel that is golden. My mum had wanted one since she was little and got her dream, now our little golden girl is a crazy puppy 😂😂
Hmm, I assume the main difference is that the English Cocker Spaniels write words with Us, Eg; Doughnut, Colour, Neighbour. American Cocker Spaniels do not use U in the same words, Eg; Donut, Color, Neighbor. _(Seriously tho cheers, I've been trying to help my parents find their perfect retirement doggo son and this breed has just come up as an option.)_
The Cocker part comes from their ability to hunt Woodcock birds. More commonly known as Cocks. The breed is smaller than many hunting dogs because woodcocks hang out in shorter grass.
I like cocker spaniels because they play and run around like any sporting dog - but they are easier to take care of. And they don't take as much room as say a golden retriever. Definitely prefer the English Cocker.
I've had 6 2 still living Charlie's the most lovable chip has severe aggressive side to him he bit me so many times but still try to work with him he was abused as a puppy don't suggest getting one from a shelter they have issues
They are easy to tell apart by just looking at their face profile. Google English Cocker Spaniel then American Cocker Spaniel and you should easily be able to see which your puppy is
My Cocker Lady is an american one but she has a liver roan coat color witch is more common in the English lines so i'm thinking that her breeder might have infused english lines into her bloodlines. She is well loved and cared for :D
Tricolor American cocker spaniel here. Cataract in his eye at three months of age. Contracted Lyme disease apparently shortly thereafter. But he such a good dog.

It should’ve been 8 weeks before you took it
@@kcg5187 I was about to say that. 6 weeks is irresponsible

Too much inbreeding from puppy mills and irresponsible breeders.

Ok thank you for the info :)

I have a 4 week old cocker spaniel puppy but I don’t know what kind of cocker spaniel she is American or English how can I tell

Why is it not 8 weeks old?
@@kcg5187 maybe he/she have the parents too
@@plsignoreme636 You would think he knows what breed the parents and the puppy if he had them.
4 weeks is too young to be away from litter & mum. Should be at least 8 weeks.

Damn dude 😟 whoever the breeder was needs to take responsibility. At least he's a good boi
