English Springer Spaniel Club

The English Springer Spaniel Club was established in 1921 in the United Kingdom and is known as the 'Parent' Club of the Breed. It is the first port of call for The Kennel Club on all matters related to the English Springer Spaniel. The club caters for both types of English Springer Spaniel, the 'show type' and the 'working type'. It arranges Shows, Field Trials and Educational days. We hope that you enjoy your visit to our website and will be a regular visitor with us. The site is updated as and when new information becomes available and we welcome your comments about your visit.
