spaniel
Wavy-furred hunting dog
Spaniels are a group of dog breeds originally developed for hunting, characterized by long, floppy ears, silky coats, and gentle, eager-to-please temperaments.
Popular varieties include cocker spaniels, springer spaniels, and Cavalier King Charles spaniels.
The name derives from their association with Spain, where the type originated.
Spaniels are known for their ability to flush game birds from dense cover and retrieve them.
Our spaniel loves swimming after ducks.
