Hi, I have an English Springer Spaniel and honestly when your able to bring him home you should start walking him. You need to teach him/her to walk on a leash at a young age.
Try little and often when they are under six months old (too much walking can damage their developing bones) so make sure they get plenty of rest in between. Try to also involve obedience training on each walk.

Why do your springer spaniel bitches only come into season once a year?
Springer spaniel bitches typically come into season once a year due to their reproductive cycle, which is influenced by hormonal changes and environmental factors. The estrous cycle consists of several stages, with the most notable being proestrus, estrus, metestrus, and anestrus. For many breeds, including springer spaniels, the anestrus phase is prolonged, leading to an annual heat cycle. Factors such as age, health, and breed characteristics can also affect the timing and frequency of their seasons.

A springer spaniel's nose may be half pink and half brown due to a condition known as "dudley nose," where pigment in the nose is unevenly distributed, often influenced by genetics.

Some dogs may have a naturally occurring two-tone nose as part of their breed characteristics. If there are any changes or concerns, it's best to consult a veterinarian.
