The Appearance of The English Springer Spaniel

English Springer Spaniels are without a doubt one of the most beautiful out of all the Spaniel and Gundog dog breeds. English Spring Spaniels have naturally long thick but not coarse straight coats that have the slightest bit of wave to them. The English Springer Spaniel comes in coat colors ranging from large patches of black and white to mixed patches of liver and white. Due to the fact that this breed of dog have lengthy luxurious coat, they require high levels of grooming when compared to certain Spaniels and other dog breeds. If you're unable to invest the time in order to groom these stunning English Gundogs, then I would not recommend an English Springer Spaniel becoming your next dog breed of choice. Although English Setters have coats that need a little extra care to them, there is the pro to this dog breed in that their coats are weather proof and weather resistant. Because of their weather proof coats English Springer Spaniels have fur that stays healthy even after a difficult and rigorous nice long day of hunting.


English Springer Spaniels have both lean and tone medium sized bodies that are well built for speed and stamina. This hunting dog has long droopy ears that are low set and directly parallel to one another to each other on their heads. English Springer Spaniels have top lips that somewhat hang over their jaw lines; their heads are long and wide. This breed of Gundog has medium sized eyes that are almost completely directed straight forward. The English Springer Spaniel has eyes that range in colors from dark browns, to clear browns, hazels, and green like eyes. Despite the fact English Springer Spaniels are hunting bred dogs; they without a doubt have an undeniable elegantly feminine edge to their appearances and characters.
