I just got one as a house pet. Hunted springers with my dad since I was 10. They really are such a great breed. Our first one got hit by a car it was the only time I saw my dad cry. He cried like a little kid. Got a puppy like a day later and they're the only breed we've had since.

Your Springer's are beautiful. They are clearly very well trained. A tip of my cap Sir.

Awesome vid - I've known Patrick and his spaniels for almost 20 years now and he is definitely the most caring and passionate dog owner/trainer I know!

your passion ... adorable!

Congratulations Patrick. A superb showcase for our Springers. Looking forward to catching up soon. Best wishes.

I really enjoyed watching your dogs work. Thank you.

Absolutely fantastic. What a great owner. I love those springers. They look an amazing working companion. 😊

That was a great vid to watch, great dogs and great trainer :)

Wow, goose bumps.....my springer spaniel of 16 month is called Hazel

Great Vid,love the Springers.Ours are family dogs,lost our great girl recently,after 12 1/2 yrs,still have a twelve month old.😍She looks very similar to your 'Honey'

Great video, My first springer just turned 1 a few months ago and he is a great dog. He loves to hunt and get spoiled.

Excellent advise on training, my 6 YO ESS is so much fun. I'd love to get another.

I’ve had a lot of dogs, mugs and hunting and working dog/ shepherds. So far our Springer is doing very well. She’s only 4 months old, but I can tell 5his breed has a lot to offer. Easy to train, aims to please.

Great video

Beautiful dogs. So intelligent so fun!! 😂😂😂❤❤❤❤

Look at all those good boys 😍😍

On the seventh day God created the Springer Spaniel !

Could you please ask Patrick to make another Springer Spaniel video? This one was awesome!

beautyful dogs

Our last springer was one hell of a huntres.

MY DREAM

Am very interested to see this video. We have Springers in the UK. My brothers lives in Australia but we are always saying our dogs wouldn't last a day in Australia because they would find too many snakes!

Other than training, when I pick cool mornings and evenings I don't work the dogs during the summer months......it would be very unusual to find a snake during the winter months which is our hunting season.

Non capisco l'inglese ma lo springer spaniel mi piace.

How big need the car bench be for an English springer ?

Wow your dogs are gorgeous! 4000AUD is around 2600USD. That seems really high! One of our springer's dad was on the cover of Field and Stream twice and he was only 2000USD. (though that was the year 2000) My 16month old I have now was 1400USD which I thought was cheap but she is turning into one of the best springers I've ever owned! All the papers too!

Great to see your dogs don’t have there tails docked, as breeders in the US seem to have them docked. Also, the heads on your dogs don’t seem as “blocky” as the English Spaniels in the US. I much prefer the look of your dogs. Finally, have you ever had experience with Welsh Springer Spaniels? Would appreciate reading your thoughts on Welsh versus English. Wonderful video - you clearly love your dogs! Thank you.

The reason their tails are docked is to prevent them getting damaged and causing the dog pain during hunting in thick bushes which is usually what springers in the UK do.

Lovely dogs. don’t think you have to shoot things to have them. They are great family dogs it was said they are very trainable. True that. I hate when working dogs get stereotyped into one thing kind of like the Malinois like it’s only a protection or herding dog and that’s all I can do. I say bullshit.

Should be left alone amd kept the traditional way

I was surprised at $4k for a Working ESS in Adelaide as our Show ESS was only $1.5K. She is a delightful kind dog, but surprising lazy and gets pushed around by our male Cocker. For $4K I would expect an ESS have to have very good hunting or show potential. I should note that a cross-breed designer dog such as a Cavoodle may cost up to $6K here. Only our Cavoodle retrieves from water as well as your dogs. The Cocker jumps in and pulls out the item but doesn’t return it. The Springer stays on the bank and barks.

I think that is fair price especially if the breeder is fully health testing all his dogs, which includes genetic health testing, hips and elbows. All my pups also have their eyes tested for Multifocal Retinal Dysplasia (MRD). In Australia there is a relatively small pool of Working Springers so the importance of health testing is very important. I've had 14 litters over the last 30 years and never had anyone complain about the price of a pup ..... most important is the pup goes to a good home!

So what happens to these breeds if there is no hunting? Do they disappear or become show ponies and lap dogs (nothing wrong with that if it's what you want). These are working dogs and what will become of them as a breed? They are training us as much as we train them, that will disappear and we will be so much poorer for that.

Hunting for a springer can be as simple as using your nose to find and retrieve something, find a bumper or toy tossed into tall grass or forest, floating bumper in a creek, etc.

4000.00 Australian? Must be some Doggie

4000 dollar's. Christ thats madness for a pup. No wonder puppy farms blew up everywhere in the last few years. I just bought a registered pup from good hunting stock in ireland for €450.
