The frisky and curious Tibetan Spaniel was bred ages ago for sentinel work on the walls of Tibetan monasteries. Known for a flat, silky coat and 'lion's mane' around the neck, the Tibetan Spaniel forms a tight, worshipful bond with their humans.
This lovely spaniel is not of course a King Charles Spaniel but I was struck by his regal pose and the way his lovely ears hang down and I was reminded of various portraits of King Charles II of England. (I hope it isn't a crime to compare a past monarch to a lovely dog!) I think Charlie here is a Field Spaniel and yes I think he is 'king' of all the spaniels I have ever had the pleasure to meet.
I've been trying to save this little guy for the last 3 weeks. I got him out of the shelter one hour before they were going to put him to sleep. Finally, I was able to get him to an animal rescue :-)
He kept getting in the way of photographs today, so I felt he deserved his own photo :)

The English Springer Spaniel is a sweet-faced, lovable bird dog of great energy, stamina, and brains. Sport hunters cherish the duality of working Springers: handsome, mannerly pets during the week, and trusty hunting buddies on weekends.
About the Breed
The merry and frolicsome Cocker Spaniel, with his big, dreamy eyes and impish personality, is one of the world's best-loved breeds. They were developed as hunting dogs, but Cockers gained their wide popularity as all-around companions. Those big, dark eyes; that sweet expression; those long, lush ears that practically demand to be touched'no wonder the Cocker spent years as America's most popular breed. The Cocker is the AKC's smallest sporting spaniel, standing about 14 to 15 inches. The coat comes in enough colors and patterns to please any taste. The well-balanced body is sturdy and solid, and these quick, durable gundogs move with a smooth, easy gait. Cockers are eager playmates for kids and are easily trained as companions and athletes. They are big enough to be sporty, but compact enough to be portable. A Cocker in full coat rewards extra grooming time by being the prettiest dog on the block. These energetic sporting dogs love playtime and brisk walks.
My lovable, naughty Dog Charlie. He is 10 next month. My constant companion and at my side when most of my wildlife images are taken. Part of his camouflage.
