GROOMING
Welsh Springer Spaniels have a naturally straight, flat, soft coat that is never wiry or wavy. It’s dense enough to serve as protection from wet, cold weather and rough country. They have some moderate feathering on the backs of the forelegs, the hind legs above the hocks, the chest, and the belly. The ears and tail are also lightly feathered. The coat is a dark, rich red and white. The white area may be flecked with red ticking. Welsh Springer Spaniels are fairly easy to groom, brush them regularly to keep them looking their best and to prevent mats, which are especially common when they’re shedding. Because their ears hang down, you need to check your Welshie’s ears and clean them at least once a week to prevent ear infections.

Welsh Springer Spaniel Children And Other Pets

Welsh Springers are gentle around children if they grow up with them or are exposed to them when they’re young. If they’re raised with them from puppyhood, they are generally good with other pets in the household, even small ones, although they might see birds as prey since that’s what they are bred to hunt.
