Synopsis
Regal in his red and white splendor, the Welsh Springer Spaniel is not only one of the oldest but also one of the most well-rounded sporting breeds of all.

Prized as a gundog of instinctive ability in the field, the Welshie is a striking presence in the show ring and a favorite in pet homes the world over. Intelligence, trainability, merriness and loyalty are but a few of the traits that have won him a multitude of fans. This Special Limited Edition, written by Haja van Wessem, a gundog enthusiast from Holland, presents the breed's history in its homeland and traces the breed's development in the United States and around the world. Also discussed are the breed's characteristics and description, including the breed standard. New owners will welcome the complete chapter on finding a breeder and puppy selection as well as the chapter on general maintenance, with topics including feeding, grooming and exercise of the Welshie throughout his life. The subjects of house-training and obedience are explained in step-by-step detail. All chapters are accompanied by color photographs and sidebars with useful information for the new owner. An excellent chapter on preventive healthcare, written by veterinarian Dr. Lowell Ackerman, completes this package, making this volume indispensable for all owners and admirers of the Welsh Springer Spaniel.
