Looking to bring home a new Sprocker puppy? I don’t blame you for picking this breed. Sprockers are bouncy, loveable, and sometimes annoying balls of fluff. But since I got my puppy, Hugo, in August of 2019, I can’t imagine my life without him. The only problem? Sprocker puppies are hard to get hold of. In this guide, I’ll share how to find a Sprocker Spaniel breeder in the UK–and what to […]
Got a smelly Spaniel that could do with a tidy-up? You don’t have to take them to a professional (and expensive) grooming salon. In fact, you could give them a DIY groom at home; in a place where they’re most comfortable. Getting into the habit of doing a groom at home will come in handy, too. Spaniels don’t think about where they’re playing. They’ll follow their nose wherever it takes them–which is […]
Spaniels are excitable, energetic, and love to learn. A combination of excitement and the constant need for mental stimulation can turn into negative behavior if not managed correctly. But, if you give your Spaniel training from an early age (especially during the socialisation period), it’s likely that they will also be well-behaved. You won’t need to apologise to friends and family for the puppy jumping all over them–and it could even save […]
It’s no secret that every dog loves treats. They are the perfect tool for reinforcing good behaviour and play an essential role in training any dog. But, you also want to consider your dog’s health at the same time. What better way to monitor what your dog is consuming than by making your own homemade dog treats? It may seem a little extravagant and but it doesn’t have to be difficult. Here’s […]
Your dog wolfs down their food like there’s no tomorrow. Their bowl is licked clean before you even turn around.

And if you’re not careful, your dog might catch heatstroke–a potentially fatal problem that killed 58 dogs in one year alone. So, how can you take care of your dog in summer and make sure they’re safe? In this guide, we’ll share the 11 ways you can keep your dog cool […]
Thinking of getting started with raw dog food? Hugo did–and it’s the best thing we’ve ever done for him. Before, we’d tried four different types of Spaniel dog food, and it was rare that he ate it. We had to bribe him to eat kibble by pouring beef stock over, or adding some of our dinner to. But even then, he still wouldn’t it eat it most times. He’d starve himself, instead. […]
Are you thinking of buying a Sprocker Spaniel puppy? Puppies are really cute and seem fun! However, becoming a dog owner is a big responsibility. After all, you’ll be responsible for taking care of another life alongside your own. Sprocker Spaniels are cute, fun, energetic, and extremely adaptable. They get along very well with children.

Do you want to add a Spaniel mix to your family? There are three types of purebred Spaniel: The Springer, Cocker, and King Charles Spaniel. But breeders are starting to breed Spaniel crossbreeds—with some of these so-called “designer dogs” set to be more popular than their crossbreed relatives. Each mix has their own personality, temperament, and appearance. How do you know which is the perfect crossbreed for your family? In this guide, […]
Before we dive into this post, let’s get serious for a moment. The coronavirus situation is terrifying, and with the UK government essentially taking us into lockdown, there’s not much we can do… Other than keep safe. That’s especially hard when you’re a dog parent to Spaniels, who have all the energy in the world. I’ve seen tons of questions asking how this impacts dog owners. Are we able to walk our […]
