Like my children Harvey our golden cocker spaniel is so loved and adored.
Harvey brings the sunshine out in every one, he wants to be friends with all humans and gets on well with most breeds of dogs. Not so keen on black labradors but well we don't like everyone we meet do we.
Harvey loves his food especially bakers chicken cubes as well as Iams.
At least three times a day Harvey is out with the family running on the field, walking by the stream and running over the helli cliffs near where we live.
Harvey is so handsome and cute as well, a mixture of a show and a working dog. HIs favourite toy is of course his tennis ball, followed by a squeeky chicken. Harvey is so intelligent, if you ask him to get his toys he will get them from where he left them last time, either from the bedroom or the kitchen. So well behaved, I can take him anywhere.
My Harvey Cocker, my best friend,my sanity, my world with Harvey in it is so complete. Thank you Harvey for being there for me all the time.

I got Sophie in June 2008. One of my best decisions! She is very affectionate, intelligent but very needy.
The welcome after being absent is superb. She is also very excitable once she hears the word "WALK"! We now spell it, but she is now re-acting to this too.
Very intelligent dogs with huge energy. I would recommend one for anyone, provided that they will walk at least once a day for at least an hour. Get a ball thrower.
I made the mistake of allowing her on couches - bad idea. Cocker S ...- Read Guest's review (96 words)

Big fan of Cocker Spaniels. I had two brothers 14 years ago who have now had to be put down and I have my new 'batch' who are now 15 months old.
They do need more than a quick walk. They are capable of walking for hours. Give them interest (new places) as well as time (1hr+) and they will be very happy to curl up and sleep for the rest of the day. They got on well with all the dogs round here.
My 'boys' told I was pregent before the pregnancy test by following me everywhere! soon followed by con ...- Read tatty124head's review (331 words)

I've always been a cat person until I got a cocker spaniel. Honey is an orange roan girl and is the most beautiful dog I have ever known, let alone owned. She follows me everywhere (absolutely EVERYWHERE) and is up for anything at any time. She is placid and easy going, always up for a cuddle and always enthusiastic for a walk. She is small enough to take everywhere and gets along with every other dog she meets. She totally adores her family and is extremely loyal. I have two cocker spanie ...- Read nloxton's review (284 words)

I have a 2year old golden cocker spaniel.

Overall and absolutely adorable pet, which is loyal, caring and just loves snuggling up on sofa! T ...- Read Guest's review (245 words)

We have a Working Cocker - more athletic looking than show cockers and not inbred, She is always friendly, madly wags her tail and tuns over to have her tummy rubbed when a stranger visits, hardly ever barks, soft coat, sheds evenly throughput the year, tireless energy, has been easy to train. She seems perfectly content to be left at home alone between 8.15 and 12.30
Our particular dog was the best of the litter - according to the breeder (i.e she escaped first, took solid food first, wagged ...- Read sdavies's review (172 words)

We have had our working type cocker spaniel for 3 years now, we got him when he was 9 weeks old, lovely looking dog he is mainly black with a blue roan chest. He's fantastic around the house, gets on fine with our 3 year old Springer spaniel, but he hates other dogs and people he will bark at them and for a little dog he's got a bark of a rottweiler, frightens some people and we have to apologise, spent at least £500 on Dog Training and he is slowly improving as he get's older. He's brill ...- Read yorkypud36's review (174 words)

I got my Cocker Spaniel (Ollie) 5 months ago, and he has had a large impact on my life. I feel a lot more content and happy, as he never fails to bring a smile to my face. He's very sensitive and tries to offer you love when you're sad, and he adores going for walks, although he tires quickly in the heat. My partner and I are both more active thanks to Ollie.- Read Debbie500's review (127 words)

I have a Springer Spaniel, and 4 years ago I bought a Golden Cocker Spaniel as a companion.
Originally I thought he had Cocker rage. In fact he was a re-homed dog and it turned out he had socialisation issues.
In 4 years, I have grown to love him, but he is extraordinary hard work. Totally obsessed by food, and he constantly strives to become top dog.
The good point is that you can never neglect his needs. I don't think I would have another Cocker though. I would certainly recommend ...- Read lawwitch's review (109 words)

I have owned 2 cocker spaniels and totally love the breed. My first one died at age 14 of cancer. She had a lot of health problems inc. frequent ear and skin problems. But I loved her dearly. She was a regular little diva. I also adopted a 3 yr old from a co-worker. At first I thought she would't bond to me well, but I needn't have worried. She is like velcro. She is a little shy with strangers but never mean. And she is crazy about tennis balls. The two of them were very different in personalit ...- Read ataylor's review (163 words)

I have had a male blue roan Cocker Spaniel since December 2004. He is affectionate, but he gets wound up over nothing and growls a bit, even though he has been neutered.
The ears have to be groomed a lot otherwise clumps form, and this is unsightly.
He is an unfussy eater, and anything you give him he will eat. Cocker Spaniels like other dogs, especially mine.
Overall, he is a lovley dog.- Read Zoidberg's review (85 words)

I have had my Cocker Spaniel for two weeks and she is 10 weeks old. Although it is early days, she is responding well to training, and is very intelligent. She is good fun, and my 5 year old son adores her. We can't wait to take her out for a walk! She is so good, our friends have bought her sister!!- Read littlerobby's review (65 words)

We bought our Cocker in August last year when she was 8 weeks old, and she is the best thing I think we have every purchased. She loves being made a fuss of, and loves making a fuss of you when you come home. Very intelligent (when she wants to be!), very affectionate, and adores playing with toys and never runs out of energy. She just loves to be by your side - perfect company.
We have heard of Cocker Rage, but I think this comes down to how you handle a dog if you leave them for hours ...- Read Alison1976's review (127 words)

I have owned Cockers Spaniels for over 20 years - all of them rescued. This is a breed greatly and sadly misunderstood!
For far too long, too many owners, on discovering that Cocker Spaniels are not quite the lap dog they had hoped for, have resorted to using the excuse that the dog is suffering from 'rage syndrome'. Amazingly, very few owners keep their Spaniel.
So surely, it's their justifiable excuse and their way to exonerate themselves of responsiblity and allow themselves a guilt free p ...- Read dorrit's review (241 words and 3 comments)

Cocker Spaniel - We tried to rescue one of these but he turned out to have "cocker rage" and bit all of us. Although we loved the look of the breed and thought he'd get on with our existing dogs, we found we couldn't cope and had to return him so he could get expert help. The behaviourist the rescue society put us in touch with recommended this, so we had to part with him. It was a relief as the children were beginning to fear him and his spraying was smelly. He looked lovely but our other dogs ...- Read Greyhoundhelper's review (203 words and 12 comments)
