I would like to know if you have a short eared dog that would be traditionally used for field events is it still liable for shows if it doesnt have the show breeds features? All springers are gorgeous especially mine he is a black and white springer and gets on with every one and typically hyperactive and playful. How ever he has recently contraced prostate cancer at the age of 5 therefore needs castrating which i feel just horrible about doing but if it saves his life then i will do anything.

I have 2 ESS Muffin and Crumpet. 18 and 13 months old.What a pair of treasures can't imagine life without them.
Muffin is the more sensible, loves chasing anything that flies even the odd hot air balloon. She HATES water and wont go any where near it. her aim seems to be to empty the work surfaces, and collect cudly toys from around the house.
Crumpet, is the opposite, will dive strait into any water and swim and swim. Loves her food and is by far the bigger dog. (both are females) She loves my son who can do absolutly anything with her including teaching her how to open the door and empty the washing machine !!!
they both are very different and are devoted to each other never been speerated since Crumpet arrived as a little girl of 10 weeks who had been to 2 owners and not wanted (no fault of her own) the first thought that the new puppy would be house trained and were horrified to discover that was not the case, she was then sold to a elderly couple who just were not geared up for a puppy, although they loved her, we were contacted knowing that we already had a 5mth old puppy to take her, this we did without hesitation she has neverlooked back.
Some people are quite irresponsible when it comes to looking for a pet.
Twice the trouble, twice the JOY. |

Our 4 1/2 month old ESS bitch is very affectionate. However we have a problem with her biting the children. She tends to do it when she is excited but over the past week or so has started snarling at them too. This week she just went up to my son while out in the fields on a walk and snarled and started biting him.
The children never tease her and are not left alone with her unsupervised. We have attempted to make sure that they make their higher status clear eg they give her her food after they have finished their meal, win at games etc.
I am becoming concerned as she soon will ahve her adult teeth and I am also worried that she could bite other children.
I would be grateful for any advice.
Thank you. |

This is my 3rd ess had the 1st one 14 yrs the 2nd 15yrs and could not take not having one. Here is something I wrote after I lost the one before this one it will tell you what I thought of her. Dear Family and Friends:
This is to let you know that on August 9, 2004, after looking into her big brown eyes and her telling me to please let go I'm ready to move on. The decision was made to let THE ROYAL DUTCHESS MAGGIE MICHELE OF PINEWOOD move on to a better world where she will once again see clearly and hear as she could before. I could be selfish no longer for she has given me too much.
So to my friend my Companion my love.
May you run far and free in lush green grass fields where you can run after as many golf balls as you wish.
May you romp through the woods until you want to lay and sleep in the sun.
May you find clean clear lakes and rivers to dive for the rocks that you so loved to do and to entertain as many as want to watch.
May you find an unlimited amount of your favorite cheese and pig ears and eat as much as you want.
You have always been so true to me that I promise that we will once again somewhere, sometime, meet again where we will be together through all eternity.
I will never forget you.
Love,
Dan |

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am the owner of a 4 month old ESS. I got him to help keep my other dog (2yrs) and who,acts still like a young pup company..
Boy was I not prepared for him..His name is Glen- Moran ( after the whiskey) and he is full of energy!!
I know you dont advise that they be left in the house alone i.e when at work , but my other dog settled well and they do get good runs in the fields when i am home...
Glen has nw discovered that my kitchen door tastes good, and as reluctant as I feel, i put him in his cage ...Does any one have any suggestions about the chewing/ boredom..
He is so beautiful and will eventually be a very faithful friend, he knows to sit, lie and play with his ball, but the toilet training still hasnt happened....
I dont remember my other dog (wee jasper/mongrel) being like this..
Dont want to give Glen up what do I do!?? |

We only went to look at the puppies when someone we knew was getting one and couldn't resist. She is absolutely beautiful and we love everything about her. She is a complete nutter but also loving and loyal. Anyone thinking of having a springer I would defintately recommend it, but don't have cream carpets! |

Hello!
I have an 18 month old b/w ess called Zebedee (named so as he bounces constantley and everywhere!)We weren't after a dog when we got him, he was a present from my aunt, who is a breeder. Now, however, I have no idea how I filled my time before him. His boundless energy and limitless affection is amazing and I adore him. He pees when he is excited and barks at people in hats, but as far as I'm concerned it just adds to his attraction! Everyone should have a Springer, they brighten your life. Great site by the way. lovely to hear all your stories! |

Hello all,
Can you help?
I have always enjoyed the company of a Springer Spaniel. However, I have not been able to, in recent years due to living in London. I am now in search of a bitch and a dog puppy from different breeders, as I am moving from London to a new home with an acre of land. I am looking for two reputable breeders with a proven, written, track record of their breeding conduct.
The breeders must have a vet’s letter stating they have had their animals tested for 'Fucosides' and all the relevant documentation, and records of jabs received.
Thank you.

I had a phone call back in October from a friend of a friend. Who had heard that I liked dogs. But did not have one at the moment. She asked me to go and see a dog that a Livery Centre was 'trying' to get rid off. Daft I know but I turned up, put her in my car and drove the hour and a half home. I have two small children a husband and no experience of ess. Well you all know what I am going to say next. Katie is around one and a half. She is daft as a bat. The kids love her and I wonder what we did before her. She is now at her proper weight and her coat is nearly as it should be. She still worries if I am not around. But that's love for you. I am just glad we found her when we did. God knows what would have happened to her. We love you Katie.xxx |

Today 12/11/05 is feeling like the worst day of our lives,our ess bonnie past away in the local vets she was 19 months.She developed a illness called Hemolytic Anemia which is a blood disorder where her immune system attacked her own body,while reading up on it i found that ess's are more prone to it than other breeds. she had a blood transfussion and was given steriods over a period of 24 hours but collapsed and died at 10-35am today, just a word on how to check for this illness is they become very lethargic and their gums instead of being pink become a horrible grey colour so a quick check of their mouth a few times a week might help owners going through the feelings we are at the moment with the loss of bonnie at such a young age.I know its a rare complaint and she was probably unlucky to develope it now we need to decide wether to get another ess or not they are lovely dogs none better in my book. |

Hi, my little man Dougal or Douglas when he is naughty (which is more often that not) is my dream dog. i always wanted an ESS and after a whole lot of thinking we decided to buy one. He is 16 weeks old L/W and KC registed. He came with his fair share of problems, mange mite, conjunctivitis and an umbilical hernia. Our vet says he has to be Neutered because the hernia appears to run in the family 3 of his brothers have one. When he gets the snip will his behaviour change, by the way he believes everything is a female dog (if ya know what i mean). |

My family got our first springer spaniel from the local game keeper. She was a beautiful dog that was trained as a gun dog. My dad decided that he should start beating so he joined the local hunt. He is now the game keepers second in command and loves every minute. Our dog was the last bitch in her line so we decided to breed her. She had 7 gorgeous pups that were all registered with the kennel club. I am now very interested in beating and the history and specifications of pedigree english springer spaniels. I also dog in with my own springer before the shoots begin.We have decided to keep our dogs line going so we kept a bitch from the litter. I would just like you to know that i thought your website was excellent and particularly informative for a budding springer spaniel breeder. Although i am only 14 i know that my life has been greatly improved by this wonderful breed of dog! |

Hi,
I have 2 english springers, a mother (spayed), and her son. Both are l/w and are called Bob and Carrie. Unfortunately, neither are registered pedigree, but they brighten up my life no end. Bob enjoys it when i take him beating at Forde Abbey, and he is much admired by the other beaters! |

We have go a little adorable 5 month old ESS called Cassie who is so beautiful and loving, everytime she does something naughty she looks really guilty and she's so cute that it's hard to telln her off. We take her training and she is easily the best dog in the class. If anyone wants to get one just go out and buy one, they are so beautiful and lovely. |

Hello everyone! My husband and I just got Todd about 3 weeks ago. We basically rescued him from a couple who had taken the litter off their mom at 5 WEEKS!!! I was so angry, I wanted to buy them all. It took about a week of supplements, but Todd is doing great and loves his new home. He is just 8 weeks, but he retrieves, sits, stays, stands, lays down, rolls over, stays for grooming, he walks like an adult, and is adjusting to my kitty quite well. Unfortunately he isn't registered, but he seems so fit for some sort of show or competition. Any reccomendations for being able to share this joy of my life would be great. Thanks! Love Todd, Melissa and David! |

Hi i have just rescued a 15mth old ESS and need some advice on getting weight onto him, I have an Irish WolfHound and a WSD - Working Sheep Dog. I picked him up yesturday and he is very malnurished all skin & bone i am off to the vet tonight but breeder or owner advice recieved gratefully, He is a happy sole and seems glad to be out of kennels he is not too hyper .... on a par with my WSD.
I have bath'd him and i have noticed some bald spots on his coat and his feet and belly are stained yellow, plus he has some sores on his feet.
I am an experienced Dog Handler, but regarding ESS a novice, so any advice recieved thanks.

2nd attempt at signing this guestbook!
I have a 2yo springer with interesting breeding (3/4 worker, 1/4 show!) I want to enter him in the gamekeeper ring at crufts next year (he beats twice a week) but need some advice on how to trim him properly, especially his ears, neck and hind feathers.
He quite long ears and hair for a worker!
Nice site. |

We acquired our ess from a friend that breeds them after our old mongrel dog passed away. We got a shock at the amount of energy and attention that he demanded, but eight months later kyle is a hugh part of our family. We've had teething problems, but with patience and perseverance we're overcoming such prolems as alpha male dominance (within the younger members of the family) etc.. We all just love him to bits despite the tricks that he gets up to on a daily basis! |

We are the proud owners of a 4 year old English Springer Spaniel called Benson (Trimere Tall Order). Benson was bred by Anne and Colin Corbett and when we went to see him at 8 wks old I always remember Anne saying that she thought he was going to be a big lad...Anne you were so right he is absolutely huge. So many people who own springers comment on how tall he is.. he definitely lives up to his Kennel Club name. We call him our Gentle Giant as he is wonderful with our 14 month old daughter, they are a double act, where ever he goes she goes and visa versa. A wonderful breed to have around children, our lives will always be blessed with springers. |

I am the proud owner of Miles and Grace. Miles is 2 years old and we recently got him a little companion Grace she is 14 weeks old. I originally didn't want a springer but it was my boyfields childhood pet so we got Miles. They are adoreable with very different personalities. Miles loves to cuddle while Grace is fiesty. They both love each other dearly and snuggle up on the settee most nights. I will never be without a Springer, they are loyal and loving creatures. Words cannot express how much I love my boy and my girl!!

Hello
I have just found this site while browsing through trying to find advice on a skin problem. We have a brilliant 20 month old Springer called Harvey and a rough Collie. I have had many dogs in my life before but this is my first Springer, What a dog. boundless energy, loyal, loving, huge character. We are lucky in that we live 10 minutes away from Ashdown Forest so he is out most days just being himself, absolute pleasure. He will get pheasant up that you had no idea were even there. Deer cows and horses he is fine with but sheep are still a problem. He will stay close off the lead IF got under control in time. If not then he is off. Anyway - he has a skin problem that has flared up the last month or so, Flaky and irritated on his back, our vet gave him a steroid injection last week which stopped him itching immediately but a week later it is back again. I know they are prone to skin problems, (his ears go through phases but Canaural drops and cleaning with Cerusolve clears them up quite easily) but don't want to have to give him steroids as a cure. He is fed on Eukanuba and as I say has loads of excercise. He has always been in the streams and ponds so always wet but it's only in the last month or so this problem has started.
Any advice/suggestion or comment would be very welcome.
Great site by the way. Nice to see so many other people obviously nuts about their dogs as well. |

A very nicely composed web site with much to present. As an owner of an American bred ESS it is always interesting to see the differences beween the UK Springer's and their American cousins. God bless and protect you. |
