English Springer Spaniel Growth Guide

Breed Overview

The English Springer Spaniel is an energetic and affectionate sporting breed that originated in England as a gun dog used to flush and retrieve game. Renowned for their intelligence, loyalty, and cheerful temperament, Springers are equally at home in the field or as devoted family companions. Their eagerness to please and sociable nature make them excellent pets for active households.

Classified as a medium-sized breed, the English Springer Spaniel requires careful growth monitoring, especially during puppyhood. Tracking their weight and size ensures proper development and helps prevent obesity, which can contribute to joint issues and other health concerns later in life.

How Much Bigger Will My English Springer Spaniel Puppy Get?

English Springer Spaniels reach 50% of their adult weight by about 4 to 5 months of age. Most will achieve their full adult height and bulk by 12–14 months, though some may continue to fill out in muscle mass until around 18 months.

Rule of Thumb:
To estimate adult size, double your puppy’s weight at 16 weeks.

Unlike giant breeds, medium-sized dogs like Springers tend to mature faster, making accurate weight tracking during early months even more important for proper nutrition and skeletal development.

English Springer Spaniel Growth Tips

Nutrition

Springer Spaniel puppies benefit from a balanced, medium-breed puppy food rich in protein and essential fatty acids. Feed 3 meals per day until around 6 months, then transition to 2 meals daily. Avoid overfeeding, as this breed tends to gain weight easily.

Choose foods that support joint and eye health, especially if your Springer will be used for fieldwork or active sports.

Exercise

English Springer Spaniels are naturally energetic and need consistent physical and mental stimulation. While puppies should avoid excessive jumping or long runs to protect developing joints, they benefit from moderate daily walks, gentle play, and early obedience training. They excel in dog sports like agility and field trials once physically mature.

Health Watch

While not a large breed, English Springers can experience:

• Hip dysplasia
• Elbow dysplasia
• Ear infections (due to their long, pendulous ears)
• Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA)

Routine vet checkups and responsible breeding practices help mitigate many of these risks. Keep ears clean and dry, and monitor weight regularly to prevent strain on joints.
