Overview

The Sussex Spaniel is a gentle and affectionate breed with a sweet disposition. They are known for being great family dogs and love to be around their human companions. They are also known to be patient and friendly with children. They can be a bit stubborn at times, but overall, they are easy to train.

In terms of lifespan, the Sussex Spaniel can live up to 12-14 years with proper care and attention. Shedding is moderate and regular brushing is required to keep their coat healthy and shiny.

As puppies, Sussex Spaniels require consistent training and socialization to help them grow into well-behaved adults. They are intelligent and eager to please, but can be easily distracted, so training sessions should be kept short and engaging.

The Sussex Spaniel is a loyal and loving companion that makes a great addition to any family.
