General
The Cocker Spaniel (American) is the smallest member of
the Gundog Group. He has a sturdy, compact body and a cleanly chiselled and refined
head, with the overall dog in complete balance and of ideal size. He stands well up at
the shoulder on straight forelegs with a topline sloping slightly towards strong,
moderately bent, muscular quarters. He is a dog capable of considerable speed,
combined with great endurance. Above all, he must be free and merry, sound, well
balanced throughout and in action show a keen inclination to work. A dog well
balanced in all parts is more desirable than a dog with strongly contrasting good points
and faults.
