Breed History
According to the AKC, American Kennel Club, the English Springer Spaniel was first recognized
back in the 1880's for its natural hunting ability and as the origin of the Springers we know and love today. Although
the Springer and Cocker Spaniels may once have come from the same litter, in 1902, the Kennel Club of England formally separated the
English Springer Spaniel and Cocker Spaniels as separate breeds with distinct characteristics and talents.
The English Springer Spaniel,
a medium sized dog, is intelligent, talented and beautiful, with excellent hunting skills. The dogs are energetic, friendly,
and loyal companions.
Snow Hill Springer Spaniels, based in southern New Jersey, began as a hobby with the purchase of a lovely little black and white female Springer from Megan's line.

Twenty years later, Black Rose has founded a line of loving pets and competitive
champions who bring joy to their owners.
The hobby now consumes my time
in raising a very small number of litters, then training, showing, and caring for those that will enter the show
ring and those who are retired.

Springers come in both black and liver coats and occasionally
are tri-colored. Tri-coloreds have additional caramel colored markings on their ears, eyebrows,
or tails. Shown, are Mackey and Bailey in dark liver. Most people have a color preference,
but the dogs' personalities transcend color.
