As a member of the gundog group, Springers, like all spaniels are high energy and highly intelligent dogs.
If you do choose a Springer then you will need to be able to provide him with a good level of free running exercise daily – at least two 30 minute sessions where he can run around, chasing his nose burning off his energy.
As a working dog your Springer will enjoy learning new things and you should provide him with mental stimulation through training which, due to his willingness to learn will be easy.
We have some recommended training courses here.
Or you can learn more about spaniel training from one of the many excellent books on the subject.
