As a whole, I think we can agree that all dogs are great. However, each of us thinks that some dog breeds are better than others. For me, the best pups in the world are Cocker Spaniels (especially my two). If you agree with me, then you probably have or have had Cockers, meaning that you relate to these 11 things.
1. Your dog almost always sleeps with a member of your family.
Cockers are known to be family dogs and little snugglers, meaning that they really like to sleep with their people.
2. Even if it's old, your dog still looks like a puppy.
Sometimes we say that people have baby faces. Well, Cocker Spaniels are the baby faces of dogs.
3. Your dog greets you very happily.
Whether you've been gone for 2 hours or 2 weeks, your dog acts like it hasn't seen you in years.
4. Your pooch is big enough to walk on its own, but also small enough to be carried.
While these sporty little guys can walk probably more and much faster than you can, they're also small enough for you to pick them up and tuck them under your arm - something they tend to really love.
5. Your pup has a big personality.
And it often shines through in their facial expressions.
6. Without question, your dog is going to demand to share your food.
All dogs beg, but Cocker Spaniels demand; I have seen them bark, claw, stamp their feet, and even jump on the table in order to share your food.
7. Your dog is photogenic as heck.
If this picture isn't proof enough, I don't know what is.
8. Your dog will play until it crashes.
Both of my pups just go and go until they literally fall over for a nap. Wake up and repeat.
9. You find short, curly little hairs on your clothes.
While Cockers don't shed a lot, you still seem to find little bits of their fur all over you.
10. Your dog is constantly checking on you.
Cocker Spaniels like to make sure that everyone is good to go and happy. Some will check to make sure everyone is in their proper beds at night, some just do rounds to see what everyone is doing, and some just stick right by your side constantly.
11. Your dog is the center of your entire world.
Because with faces like this one, how could they not be?
