Thread: Welsh springer spaniel

Looks like a mini Red & White Setter which I like. Mine was a smallish Dog. very friendly, great with kids and other dogs, Good watch dog, Sure he saved us being burgled on a couple of occasions. Not sure how they would go in a guard dog role, too friendly, unlike my current Gordon Setter, Not a people fan until he's had time to get to know them on his terms.

My Welshey was self grooming, after a weekend in the bush etc he would come back with a coat full of crap. I would pull out the large heavy stuff and them he would spend the next hours using his teeth to strain all the crap out of his fur. Next morning you would find a little pile of twigs, leaves, blackberry etc.
NB watch the ears if the dog is doing lots of water time in poor quality Waikato river water.
