What age do male springer spaniels stop growing?
When do they grow up? Physically, Springer’s are completely mature by 2 years of age. Mentally, well, that depends on the individual.
Why did my Springer Spaniel turn on Me?
I figured I had just startled him out of a sleep and tried to refrain from petting him while he was sleeping, though sometimes I’d forget and he would turn on me again. Then he started doing this when he was awake. My groomer said I should be firm with him, show him who was boss by saying loudly something like, “No, you don’t act that way!”
What happens when a Cocker Spaniel has a dislocated kneecap?
Dislocated Kneecap: Dislocated kneecap, or patellar luxation, is a hereditary problem in which the leg bones are malformed. This results in the kneecap being repeatedly pulled out of position. When the kneecap is dislocated, the dog will limp with the affected leg lifted off the ground.
Why does my Springer Spaniel have rage syndrome?
“Rage Syndrome” is an old term, essentially a misnomer that should be dropped from the behavior vocabulary. Rage implies a violent, emotional reaction. While this may apply to sudden outbursts of violence in people, it really doesn’t help us determine why a similar incident occurred in dogs.
