5Dexter, 9 year old male Cocker Spaniel looking for a new home. He is a very loving, friendly and people-oriented dog. He loves nothing more than a long walk, lots of play and a cuddle. Unfortunately due to another child arriving and increased work demands, we are unable to give him what he needs any longer and are reluctantly looking for someone to give him a lovely new home.

Adopting a Cocker Spaniel usually involves completing an application form, meeting the dog in person, and agreeing to any checks or requirements set by the current owner or rescue organisation. This helps ensure the Cocker Spaniel is matched with the right home.
Before adopting a Cocker Spaniel, consider the breed's exercise needs, grooming requirements, and temperament. Understanding the typical traits of a Cocker Spaniel can help you decide if it's the right fit for your lifestyle.
Browse the listings on this page to see Cocker Spaniel dogs currently available for adoption. You can filter by location to find Cocker Spaniels closer to you, making it easier to arrange a visit and meet the dog in person.
Many rescues and private owners charge an adoption fee. This fee often covers vaccinations, microchipping, and sometimes neutering, helping to ensure the dog is healthy and ready for a new home.
Cocker Spaniels are one of the UK's most popular dog breeds, known for their affectionate nature, intelligence and distinctive appearance. Originally bred as working gundogs, they are now widely kept as both family pets and active companions, suited to a variety of households.
Cocker Spaniel puppies for sale are often available in both working and show types, each with slightly different characteristics. Working Cockers tend to have higher energy levels and a stronger drive, while show Cockers are typically calmer with a heavier coat and more relaxed temperament.
They are recognised for their long ears, expressive eyes and soft, wavy coat, which comes in a wide range of colours including golden, black, liver, blue roan and more. Regular grooming is essential to keep their coat in good condition and prevent matting.
Cocker Spaniels are friendly, social dogs that benefit from regular exercise, mental stimulation and early training. When looking at puppies, it's important to choose a breeder who provides appropriate health testing, including checks relevant to the breed, and who raises puppies in a well-socialised environment.
If you are new to the breed, you can read our Cocker Spaniel Buyers Guide, learn what to prepare in our puppy starter pack guide, or explore our Cocker Spaniel breed guide for more detailed information.
