This made me smile. I now have my 6th springer and there is nothing like them.
We have our Welsh Springer Spaniel pup now. He will be 1 in a couple of weeks. Your descriptions are spot on!
Thanks so much for watching and letting us know we're right on! Appreciate the support!
Ahhh, lovely! I asked about the differences between them a while ago, this is great to see. Thanks a million and Happy holidays!!
Yes! When we filmed it we were like 'there is NOTHING else on CZcams! We need to make a video.' Glad you enjoyed it!
I was so hoping you hadn’t quit CZcams for good! Glad to see you and your beautiful dogs are back!
Oh no, we haven't quit. Things just got really busy over the summer. We've been meaning to get a video out for a long time. Glad you enjoyed the video!
This was so helpful! Thank you so much for breaking that down!
Your video is extremely helpful! There are a few Welsh Springer Spaniels in my area. One of them visits our street once in a blue moon. Speckles has green eyes, will look into your eyes with his happy and gentle face then he'll disappear! I love their personality, fur type and especially their colours.
So glad that they were helpful to you! Thanks for watching.
Awesome video thanks for the information. I love my English springer so much! Both of these breeds are very hard to come by in northern California. I am on the hunt for another awesome four legged family member and now I understand a Welsh would also be a great candidate. Thanks again 🐾 🐾
Our welshie is the toughest dog I've ever met, she roughhouses and plays very physically with other bigger dogs and absolutely loves everyone and everything. I guess there are major differences in the individuals.
That's so interesting. Thanks for sharing!
Agree - I’m sure that Welshies are called “Velcro” dogs for a good reason.
Loved seeing all the doggies and Nicola of course. 🙋♀️🙏🏻💕🇺🇸
Aww thanks Darlene!
Thanks for sharing this. I think I'll stick to English Springers!
Can't go wrong with that decision either.
So funny at 5:00 the Welsh sports something and does that face and then the whole fleet goes off to have a look 🤣

Very knowledgeable Nicola! They’re so big lol holy cow
Thanks Brandon! They're very big!
Any chance of a video where you touch on the genetic testing of the parents? Thanks for sharing
As multiple Welsh Springer owners of 31 years, and friends to many more with English Springers I agree with some of your comments but disagree with others. As you said the Welsh want to take a moment to know a stranger. We liked the slightly smaller Welsh (about 5-10 pounds less) size, although both are midsized breeds. We really liked the normal sized ears vis-a-vis the extra long ears of the English, and the slightly shorter muzzle. We have had far less ear infections on our Welsh than all of my friends with the English even though ours swam much more than theirs. The only breed smarter than the Welsh Springer is the Border Collie, which is definitely the smartest. We have not noticed the more sensitive areas that you referenced, and are confused by this reference. Both are exciting, inquistive dogs but the Welsh does not constantly get into your face as the English did on your video. Both are great breeds, but we think the Welsh better although far less well known in the dog world. We certainly think them way better than other breeds we experienced: Minature Schnauzer, German Shepherd, Doberman, Shetland Sheepdog, Wirehair Terrier, Airedale, and Alaskan malamute. Most of these breeds were clueless (except the Shepherd) and preferred to sleep all day, and had near zero interaction, or interest in humans.
Thanks for the feedback, we really appreciate it!.
Yes, the welsh are sensitive, I have 2 both 6yrs, have had a few other breeds....your assessment is fair, although I am not comparing them to any other particular breed.
Thanks for the further info….I like both but I think I would prefer the Welsh but the sensitivity could be a challenge when training…but they are so pretty!
They're adorable for sure! I don't think they're too sensitive regarding training. They certainly can be corrected. It's like children, some all you have to do is look at sternly and they get the message. Others.... a little more! lol
No not a problem, they are keen to please, just be sensitive and kind, they respond exceptionally fast to that.
Thanks for the very nice overview! I love both species, but never had one, only an epagneul francais and a small munsterlander, also very friendly dogs with a lot of energy. Is there actually a difference in the amount of barking between the E and W, and how do they respond at having being at home for a while as I would like to continue playing golf when deciding for one of the two.
I love dogs and I have been wanting to get a welsh springer spaniel puppy for while here in Ontario but just can't make the move because rental properties dont always allow pets here and I am undecided because I may need to move to Australia in near future and Australia is having really tough pet import rules costing a fortune.
Do you think if the welsh is thouroughly socialised as a puppy with people of all ages, he can come to work with you? Or will he bark at any stranger at the office and is very territorial? The welshie would be the perfect dog for me in terms of height and weight and of course their appearance! Gorgeous dogs! 😍
Oh no doubt! They would be fine with that. They are good with people but aren't 'in your face' want to have attention. If they are brought up in that environment they would do fine :D
Hello,
Thank you for the videos. I have a question about the health of these 2 beautiful breeds: is there something to worry about ? How long do both breeds live?
Thank you!
Very informative video. love it.💖
Glad it was helpful!
I would expect to show physical differences, if any, and other aspects like health and performance aspects.
I noticed that some, probably yanger ones, do not have the tails docked and they look better.
That would be great! We would love if you would share the link when you make it. We definitely will check it out! Thanks for commenting.
What do you get when a Welsh and a Brittany cross?
Thank you for the video, beautiful dogs 👍💕
Is there any difference in their grooming/coat? Do the English have more coat than the Welsh? Do you clip either breed? Any differences in the health generally of the two breeds? Any difference in which is more obedient once trained? Thank you
Beautiful fur babies! Not enough Springers here in Hawaii. I've never seen a Welsh here, hopefully one day!
Hawaii! That is fantastic. Aloha from Ontario Canada. Thanks for subscribing!
People always ask if our oldest cocker is a welsh springer looking at them i can see why
Oh they must look very similar! Thanks for watching and commenting!
I am really interested in getting a dog in the future; and I really love Welsh Springer Spaniels. I do have one concern though. I will be living alone and will need to leave the dog alone for the day a couple days per week. In your experience, have Welshies had a lot of trouble with separation anxiety?
Hello! Thanks for commenting. All good need to be trained and socialized well so they do not develop separation anxiety. With that said though, no dog should be left alone for a couple of days. With the proper training dogs can be left alone throughout the day while people go to work but I would never say for longer than that.
Hello. Thanks for these videos, I am recently smitten by the welsh springers! We thought we always wanted a golden retriever, but recently are thinking a bit smaller is better.... How do the welsh's compare to golden retrievers in personality?
So glad that you are enjoying the videos. Thank you for watching and especially for commenting. I really can't comment that much about golden retriever's as I don't have experience with them personally. I'm sorry!
Is there an energy level difference? Which is more Hyper?
Good question! I would say that the English Springers are more energetic from our experience. Although both of them are more than happy to curl up in the house and have a snooze!
Which breed would you recommend for a family with little kids age 3, 4 and 6 yo? Welsh or English?
That's hard to answer because it really depends on the family setting. BOTH are good for families and do very well. If you are a 'roughhousing' kind of family and want a dog you can roll and tumble with I think I would say an English.
hi could you tell me do the Welsh need their
coat cut?
It's totally your preference. We don't cut our Welshies coats, we like the long look. Some people do have them groomed though.
@@OSheaSpringers Thanks we have a working cocker but fell in love with a Welsh Springer when on a walk.
Do you have any springer spaniel litters coming available?
We do! We have 2 litters that we are expecting to be born mid-late June.
What are the litters going to be? Roan? Tri? Typical Bench? What part of Canada would one go to pick one up?
I work and train gun dogs in the uk I have 6 springer and 2 cockers of my own. The Welsh springer in the uk is not very popular you don’t see them in the shooting world the Welsh have all most gone. Your springers are very calm are springer are much more driven
That's cool! Thanks for sharing with us. Yes the Welsh Springer Spaniel is a very rare breed even over here in Canada. Ha, they may appear to be calm but they can be really active as well! Over in Canada we have 2 very distinct lines of English Springer Spaniels, 1 is called field lines and the other show/bench. The field lines are more energetic and bred for hunting and their energy.
Hi, it is so good to see you again! 🙂 Time really flies, my son just got married. How did he get to be 25 already? I love my English Springer Spaniel, but at some time in the future I sure would like to get a Welshie. Great video. 👍🏻👍🏻
Hi Sherri! Yes how time flies! We are so happy to see your comment!
