What are the origins of these Cocker Spaniel puppies in Orlando?
For that, we have to go far from Florida, across the Atlantic, and back to 14th-century Spain, where Spaniels (it's in the name) were first found. These lively little hunting dogs made their way to England, where they were a popular choice for hunting woodcocks in the 19th century, how and why the modern breed got its name, Cocker Spaniel.

What is a backyard breeder?
Differing from puppy mills, which churn out puppies by the masses for profit, backyard breeders are small-time amateurs. Some have good intentions, others don’t, but these non-professional breeders contribute to canine health and behavioral problems.

Will that Orlando Cocker Spaniel for sale be okay in an apartment?
Yes. Cocker Spaniels range from 20 to 35 pounds, and so don't take up much space.

How hard will it be to train my Cocker Spaniel?
As any top Cocker Spaniel breeders Orlando has can tell you, the dogs naturally like to please their owners. And they're an intelligent breed.

Positive training works best with this sensitive breed, and negative training will likely yield bad results.
