Description
Dog Breed: Cocker Spaniel / Terrier. Artie is ready to exit the shelter life and into a warm, happy home! Artie was found in ruff shape but he's doing great now! He's a tiny guy who walks perfectly fine on the leash. Artie has been keeping his crate clean while at our kennel. He rode great on transport too. He's a sweet older guy looking for a new home. He was tested with other dogs at the shelter and did great. While being walked at our vet's kennel, he hasn't reacted at all to other dogs. Interested in fostering or adopting Artie? Please email us at fosterscockerspanielrescue. He's too cute to resist and located in Alexandria, VA.

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.
