breeds good with springers NEW
by: Vanessa

We are getting an ESS puppy the end of January and are looking for another puppy as a playmate as well. I am considering a Golden Retriever as I've heard they are great family dogs. Do you think size and energy level would be comparable? Also, any warnings on having two puppies the same age? Double the trouble? :)

Papillon NEW
by: Jenni

We have a 4 year old springer, Lacey who needed a playmate. We decided on a papillon, which has also been referred to as a 'toy spaniel'. Even though Luna is only 4lbs now at 1year old, Lacey loves her to bits. Luna is so playful and has totally changed Lacey's quality of life. She's more playful and happier than ever.Lacey is so careful and sweet with Luna, and has never been aggressive towards her at all. Good luck!

What kind of dog is good with a springer spaniel???
by: Rhiannon

My spaniel gets on really well with our yorkshire terrior puppy! Considering the size difference its usually the spaniel trying to keep up with her! haha. I think big and small works just fine :) when they play they will soon keep up with each other!

springer
by: sarah

i would say another springer as u know what you are getting i have 2 and they get along perfectly they wear each other out and as they are the same breed they need the same kind of exercise where as if you maybe had a different breed it may need less ending up with one dog knackered lol and the springer still wanting to go go go :)

2nd dog
by: Sue

We have a 7 year old Springer boy and a 5 year old whippet/beagle/staff. Any of those three breeds would be a good match.

playmate for springer
by: Anonymous

I would personally say another springer but Thats because i had two. You could also go for a cocked spaniel but they seems to be a bit calmer. We do have one of the maddest breeds. What about a Labrador?
