Today or yesterday? There was a type of dog referred to as a 'spaniel'. Spaniels were special because they made it easier for families to eat well. The spaniels were used to help catch or flush out birds so that us humans could kill the birds and eat them. Back then they did not have grocery stores in which to buy their foods and folks actually had to get up early and go find food. Many different types of Spaniels were bred for the many different types of bird hunting which then begot our Cocker spaniels who specialized in the 'cocks' which is a type of small bird. Today the Cocker spaniel is a family companion dog mostly but they do have many years of genetic bird flushing skills locked into their genes.
I also have a seven year old Cocker Spaniel that had chronic ear infections... however she also ended up cauliflower ear and had her ear canals removed -but i do know that Cocker Spaniels are known for having ear troubles, I can get more information about the medication we used and other information soon, I'll tell as soon as I can.

It's quite shocking when their a puppy, just like a baby. They seem to shoot up. But they don't get that big so don't worry :) They grow to be... let me out it this way. When they are fully grown their head should be about the size they were when they a very small puppy :) so yes, pretty fast the first year, but then they slow down :)
American Cocker Spaniels do shed, but the amount can vary from dog to dog. They have a medium-length coat that requires regular grooming, which helps manage shedding. While they are not considered heavy shedders compared to some other breeds, they do experience seasonal shedding, particularly in the spring and fall. Regular brushing can help keep their coat healthy and reduce the amount of hair that ends up around the house.
Really fast!! I've got a cocker Spaniel and we entered her in a race once in a dog competition. She beat a gray hound without even trying! :)
Not that I'm an expert on puppies or anything but I do know that cocker spaniels used to be used for picking up pigeons when they were shot (the pigeons) by people and they would bring them back to them. They dribble sometimes because their mouth has an outline that is quite soft and it dribbles. They have this soft jaw line because when they carried the pigeons they didn't want to hurt them - or something like that anyway. Don't be put off cocker spaniels though because they are easy to train and are good around children. Also my dad used to have one and it didn't dribble so I personally think it's a load of rubbish. They do need quite a lot of grooming however but still don't be put off. Someone told my mum this (after I was begging to have a cocker spaniel) and now she seems really put off by them.
