Description
Dog Breed: Cocker Spaniel. We're in love with darling Dempsey! He is 3 years old and 31 pounds of happiness. Dempsey can be a little shy at first but within seconds he is your lap and giving soft kisses. His prior owner let us know that Dempsey has a "no hat" rule for visiting family and visitors so he appreciates if you remove your hat before meeting him. Easy enough! Dempsey is house trained and has lived with other pups. Dempsey has loads of good energy and enjoys long walks. Check out a cute video of him here! He rides great in the car and the groomer reported that he did fine for all his grooming appointments. Dempsey is ready to leave the kennel and into a foster or forever home. If you can help us, please email fosterscockerspanielrescue. He is located in Alexandria, VA. Just a note, we do not ship our pups so potential adopters must be willing to travel to this area to meet any of our pups.

Overview:
The Cocker Spaniel, a beloved breed with roots in the United Kingdom, was originally bred as a gundog to flush out woodcock. They are instantly recognizable by their medium size, typically weighing 20-30 pounds, their luxurious, often wavy coat (which comes in a variety of colors), and their long, expressive ears that frame their gentle, eager-to-please eyes. Known for their merry and affectionate temperament, Cockers are generally good-natured, intelligent, and relatively easy to train, making them an excellent choice for families with children and even first-time dog owners. While adaptable, their moderate exercise needs can be met with daily walks and playtime, making them suitable for apartment living as long as they receive sufficient mental and physical stimulation. Prospective owners should be aware of certain health considerations, including ear infections (due to their long ears), eye conditions like cataracts, and hip dysplasia, which highlight the importance of responsible breeding and regular veterinary check-ups.
