History


Since the hybrid is relatively new you would need to look to the Australian Cattle Dog and the Cocker Spaniel for its history. The Cocker Spaniel was bred in the United Kingdom in the 1800s and used for Woodcock hunting. The Australian Cattle Dog was bred in Australia in the 1800s as a cattle herding dog.

Moderate shedders, brushing a couple of times per week should be sufficient. A monthly bath with good grooming products is suggested. Pay particular attention to keeping floppy ears clean.

Ideal Environment


As mentioned, this is a highly motivated sporting dog mix. Since this is also a very intelligent animal games of sport with a challenge are perfect for the Blue Spaniel. A large fenced yard will benefit this pet. They are dogs that love to be with their people, so be sure to include them in your relaxation time.

Dog Training!

If you're having problems training your dog or getting control, you should read our review of DogProblems.com. Adam will do whatever it takes to help you whip your dog into shape. I've used them to help with my Great Dane as well as help friends train their dogs. It's the first place I go to help answer users Questions. Many training issues are too extensive to answer in this forum, which is why I refer a lot of the load to his site. Update: I've been using and recommending DogProblems for three years now. I, as well as my users, value the techniques we've learned. I get weekly emails from users who have become better owners from the information they received.
