The origins of this toy spaniel are a little hazy, but he certainly has a history going back several centuries, although he did not secure Kennel Club status until 1944, having been revived as a breed separate from the King Charles Spaniel. By the 1970s, the breed was in the top twenty of British registrations, and it continues to attract large show entries. He is larger than his relative, the King Charles, and less snub-nosed.
His large, dark eyes and melting expression are a true indication of his sweetness of character. Sturdy and hardy, he comes in a range of four such lovely colours that it is difficult to know which to choose. His silky coat requires little attention and his ever0-wagging tail shows how easy he is to please.
He’s a happy dog whose pleasures are simple – he will enjoy a long country walk, meandering round the shops or sitting beside you in front of the fire. Good with children, he is a devoted companion, absolutely non-aggressive and easy to care for.
