What spaniels are like to live with
This guide covers Cocker Spaniels, English Springer Spaniels and other spaniels, including crosses such as Sprockers. The Royal Kennel Club calls the Cocker a "popular family pet and gundog first bred to hunt woodcock", and says it earned the name "the merry cocker" for its ever-wagging tail. It describes the English Springer as "the most popular of the spaniels for working in the field", and says Springers got their name from "springing" forward to flush game.

Where can I adopt a spaniel in Guildford?
With the rescue that has the dog. Today the spaniels on this page are with All Dogs Matter (1), Diana Brimblecombe Animal Rescue Centre (1), Last Chance Animal Rescue (1), Stokenchurch Dog Rescue (1) and Wallace Kennels Dog Rescue (1). Open a profile and apply to that rescue: each one runs its own application, home check and adoption fee. We don't rehome animals ourselves.
How much exercise does a spaniel need?
It depends on the breed. The Royal Kennel Club lists the English Springer Spaniel as needing more than two hours a day and the Cocker Spaniel up to an hour a day. Dogs Trust calls both typically high-energy. Ask the rescue about this dog, as age, health and working background make a difference.
What is the difference between a Cocker and a Springer Spaniel?
The Royal Kennel Club lists the Cocker as small and the English Springer as medium; the breed standards give a height of about 38 to 41 cm for a Cocker and about 51 cm for a Springer. The Springer needs more exercise and a larger garden, and the Cocker needs grooming more often. The Cocker was first bred to hunt woodcock, and the Springer got its name from "springing" forward to flush game.
Are spaniels good with children?
It depends on the dog, not the breed. Most of the 5 spaniels listed in and around Guildford today don't say either way, so ask the rescue. Where a profile says nothing, ask the rescue what age of children the dog could live with.

If you searched "spaniel puppies for sale Guildford", the spaniels here are the rescue route: you apply to the rescue and pay its adoption fee, not a sale price. In England, Lucy's Law has meant since 6 April 2020 that puppies under six months can't be sold by a third party such as a pet shop or dealer: you buy direct from the breeder or adopt from a rehoming centre.
Can I get a free spaniel to a good home in Guildford, or one under £500?
Usually not. UK rescues normally ask for an adoption fee, which pays towards neutering, microchipping and vaccinations. Of the 5 spaniels listed in and around Guildford today, each shows its rescue's fee on the profile; the nearest rescue is Diana Brimblecombe Animal Rescue Centre at Hurst, about 19 miles away. Many rescue fees are under £500: Battersea charges £230 for a dog over six months, Dogs Trust £300, and Blue Cross from £235 for dogs aged 8 or over. An animal offered "free to a good home" is usually a private advert rather than a rescue. All dogs in the UK must be microchipped by 8 weeks old, and in England, Wales and Scotland a dog can't pass to a new keeper until it is chipped, so ask to see the microchip details.
