By 18 months most dogs should be on adult food. However, a working dog may have higher caloric needs, so consult with the dogs' vet to make sure your dog is getting the right quantity of an appropriate food.

A sprocker spaniel is a crossbreed dog that is a mix between a springer spaniel and a cocker spaniel. They are known for being energetic, friendly, and intelligent dogs that make great family pets. Sprocker spaniels are often used as working dogs in activities such as hunting and agility.
No, a Field Spaniel cannot be bred from an English Cocker Spaniel, as they are distinct breeds with different origins and characteristics. Field Spaniels are a separate breed developed for specific hunting and working traits, while English Cocker Spaniels were bred for different purposes, primarily as companion and hunting dogs. Breeding between the two would not produce a purebred Field Spaniel.
We have a springer spaniel male and have found that when he is anxious he paces in circles... However, when we are working him his preferred pattern is also a large circle. Hope that gives you some help.

The primary difference between a working cocker spaniel and a show cocker spaniel lies in their breeding and purpose. Working cocker spaniels are bred for fieldwork, focusing on traits like stamina, drive, and agility, making them excellent hunting and retrieving dogs. In contrast, show cocker spaniels are bred to conform to specific breed standards for appearance, emphasizing a more refined look with a longer coat and a stockier build. This results in differences in temperament and physical characteristics, with working cockers often being more energetic and active.
