[Closed] Friday spaniel thread

^ Great photo of Nell! Can't wait to take this guy out and about properly - another week of semi-confinement to go before the jabs are all kicked in. 11wks old tomorrow.

Beautiful dogs, had two in my life, when our little guy gets a bit older I think we'll get another miss having a dog.

Reckon the one with the anti scratch collar on has GSP in it....

I don't know how to post pics on here but these dogs are awesome!! We've got a four year old bitch (Lola) and she's the best thing that ever happened to us! As long as she has a couple of walks a day (off the lead) she's like a teddy bear at home!! Best dogs ever

Aaaarrrrgggghhhhh what are you doing to me........I said no more spaniels and I'm still not quite ready for another dog....... ❗

Aaaarrrrgggghhhhh what are you doing to me........I said no more spaniels and I'm still not quite ready for another dog.......

Ditto. Am waiting until Young Master CFH is up and walking and then another dog will be joining the family. In the meantime, threads such as this are deeply unfair. So, I've reported it to the mods, and I expect it to be closed immediately.

It's bad enough with MrsS constantly liking puppy pages on Facebook and tagging me in them. I really want one now but for various reasons it's not the right time yet. I miss my walking buddies.

I love my spaniels, they are totally nutty!

Just seen this thread and some very naughty looking spaniels indeed.

Heres young Bobbie at just 5 months, and very much a Springer I assure you.

The Hustler - Bobbie mastered the 'springer sprawl' at a very early age.

How did the flyball go?

It was just a trial day, but she loved it but then she is a bit ball obsessed.

You! Yes, all of you lot posting pictures! Your names are going on the list.

The good list or the naughty list?

Not actually hours but we get the best of both worlds as we get to take her out whenever we want and return her to her owner (our childminder) all muddy. Mad as a box of frogs.

This morning on a rare occasion when she stood still long enough to get a pic.

It's friday! time for an update:

Sorry to hear your sad news stevied 🙁

I broke up with a long term girlfriend a few years ago and we had a lovely spinger, pooch stayed with her but I do miss her very much. Pooch not the girl. Considering getting another I must be crazy 😀

We are looking after Rita at the moment. A very sweet 8 month old springer

We've got a pedigree black lab, Barney - girlfriend works him in the winter picking up on 2 or 3 shoots, he's good, if a tad wild, I'm trying to train him back up a bit, but he's 5 now, don't know where the time's gone! He's great, but not ideal for the sort of shooting I do, I want a spaniel.

If it was a lab I wanted, girlfriend would be trying to find a bitch for Barney right now, but as it's a spaniel I'm after she's not keen, loads of excuses/reasons not to arise!

You can't beat a spaniel for beating/walked up shooting I don't reckon!

Hey Core, look at the pic of my Barney on page one. He's perfect for what you need, half and half of each breed and he's such a great dog. A bit of a wuss, but so soft and gentle and just wants to please. Runs and runs too.

His parents were both from working stock, basically the liver coloured English Springer got in with the Golden Lab bitch.....great result!

Life hasn't seemed quite the same since losing our 12 year old Springer, Oscar, last year.

Until this little chap came up for rehoming on Friday. Say hello to Marmite.

[img] [/img]

Bump!

What a beautiful dog Scienceofficer

It's Friday...show me your spaniels! I hadn't seen Marmite up there previously - great looking dog. Well done on giving him a home.

This junkmail-chomping hound is 6 months old next Sunday:

Any new spaniel photos out there?

Had to take my lad to the vet this morning after a few days of D and a bit of V - one magic jab later he is almost back to normal, thankfully.

Lovely pictures.

Not a full spaniel (he's a springer / lab cross), but here's Lucas in action just in case anyone missed it on the other thread 😀 </proud owner>

As he's mainly a blur in the above video here's a few stills..

Lost the last of 4 (all at the same time for 10 year!) In 2012. We need another but don't think its fair in a working household:(
Brilliant animals.

Nearly a month ( tomorrow ) since I said goodbye to my Heidi. She was 13 years old. Miss her like mad, but it's nice to see other spaniels.

Here's me and Heidi doing a selfie in the snow.

Ooooooooo the time is coming closer....still hanging on until summer maybe

Ace thread - I love dogs. Once our life is less hectic and someone is around more, I want either a Cocker or a Vizsla. Even the boss is on board and she's more of a cat person.

We had a Springer called Meg when we were kids and she was ace. Huge amounts of energy but loved fuss and a cuddle. She would get a bit excited and wee on the floor from time to time. After my mum passed away she had to go back to the breeders because when we moved in with my grandparents she cam with us but refused to be contained in their garden. Having grown up on a farm near Dalby she was used to having a lot of space to roam.

Friend of mine has a half-Lab, half-Vizla bitch. She is awesome. A really lovely, happy, friendly dog and he (after some initial hesitation) is smitten with her.

I'm a spaniel man, but even I think she's awesome.

Sorry - missed Friday as photo bucket was down for maintenance.

Here's my faithful WCS Ziggy on holiday in Devon - that beach was dog friendly too!!
