My cocker spaniel my parents gave me after my son died was the sweetest little boy. He died of old age - and I still have his collar. He never bit anyone no matter what the neighborhood kids did to him. I miss him very much.
Cocker spaniels, if not raised with patience and love, are likely to bite because they are highstrung. Just like a poodle. 15 years ago, I had a toy poodle puppy given to me by my first husband. It was, for some reason, just nasty - would sneak around the house and attack my daughter for no reason. I got rid of it. But I understand there are dogs whose temperament are more likely to bite than others - due to their nerves. |
