Energetic flushing spaniel — bred to flush gamebirds for hunters. Two distinct types: smaller, calmer Show Springer; larger, more athletic Field Springer. Highly trainable, social, water-loving. Famously affectionate. 'Springer rage' (rare aggression syndrome) only affects very poorly bred individuals.
