Cocker Spaniels are gentle, eager-to-please dogs with a deep love of work — they were bred to hunt and flush birds, and that drive makes them highly motivated by food and toys in training. They're sensitive dogs that respond poorly to harsh corrections, so positive reinforcement isn't just preferred here, it's required. Most Cockers come home at 8–12 weeks, and the sensitive temperament means how you train matters as much as what you train.
