The English Springer Spaniel is a gun dog used for flushing and retrieving game.
This spaniel is an older breed, appearing in paintings as early as the 1600s. It is possibly the ancestor of most modern spaniels; Springer spaniels and cocker spaniels were not recognized as separate breeds until the 1800s.Photo credit: Paul Morse
