Meet Nova!
She is a sweet Cocker Spaniel looking for her forever home. She is calm and well-mannered, and I think would fit in best with a quieter home, however I think she could do well most places.
She would love to take a walk every day, but otherwise her exercise demands are relatively low. She is 4 years old. She weighs around 28 pounds and is up to date on vaccinations, deworming, and flea and tick prevention. She is ready for her forever home as soon as June 22. She has had two litters of puppies for us and has been a great mom and pet. She has recently been to see our groomer, and has been fixed and is now ready to find a retirement home where she can live out the rest of her life being pampered and loved daily.
She has experience being inside, experience with potty training, and crate training. These are skills that will need to be reinforced in her new home and routine, but she has a great start so far! She has been around kids and adults, but mostly adults. She has been around cats, other small dogs, cattle, chickens, sheep, and goats. She does not bother livestock. She gets along with everyone and is such a delight!
We have enjoyed our time with her and would keep her forever if we could! We can easily meet in Springfield, MO, Jefferson City, MO, halfway to STL, etc.
Please reach out if you have any questions!

Frequently Asked Questions
About
Cocker Spaniel
Puppies
What is a Cocker Spaniel like?
Cocker Spaniels are equally at home chasing birds in the field or playing fetch in your living room. They take joy in almost everything they do and are always sniffing around for the next thing to get into. It’s important to work with a reputable breeder, but once you find the right one, this breed will capture your heart! Full-grown, they typically weigh 20-30 pounds and stand 13-15 inches tall.
Are Cocker Spaniels a good choice for families with kids?
Cocker Spaniels are generally excellent with children of all ages. It’s important that Cocker Spaniels are kept as inside dogs. They're moderate barkers — they'll alert you when something's up but aren't excessive.
How much exercise does a Cocker Spaniel need?
Cocker Spaniels don’t need quite as much exercise as many other sporting dogs, but they still require daily playtime. They have a high prey drive, so if given the opportunity to hunt, they will do so. Cocker Spaniels enjoy activities like playing fetch, swimming, sniffing for trouble, and of course, cuddling. Overall, their exercise needs are moderate.
How much grooming does a Cocker Spaniel need?
Cocker Spaniels have a soft, wavy coat that you can keep styled in one of two ways. The puppy cut is a shorter coat length that you’ll need to brush and trim about every two weeks. The famous, flowing show-coats take even more effort, including weekly bathing, brushing, and trimming. Grooming-wise, this breed is fairly high-maintenance.
How much space does a Cocker Spaniel need?
Cocker Spaniels are best suited for apartments and smaller homes. It’s important that Cocker Spaniels are kept as inside dogs. The size of your house or yard is less important, and they can live just fine in almost any situation provided they get their exercise. They are fairly easy to train.
Puppy Buyer's FAQ
See Full Guide Here
Visit or Video Call the Breeder
Visit in person if possible, or request a live video call to meet the puppy, see its living conditions, and meet the mom. Ask to see where the dogs eat, sleep, and play.
Get a Vet Exam Immediately
Have a vet examine the puppy within two days of bringing it home, even if it seems healthy.
Request Complete Health Records
Ask for vaccination records, deworming history, and vet exam results. For purebreds, ask for parent health clearances.
Get Everything in Writing
Written contract with health guarantees, return/refund policy, and spay/neuter terms. Verbal promises are unenforceable.
Use Secure Payment Methods
Pay with a credit card or another traceable method that offers buyer protection. Avoid wire transfers, crypto, or gift cards, which are difficult to recover.
Verify Breeder Credentials
Check USDA license, state breeder license, breed club memberships, and reviews. Ask for buyer references.
Know What to Look For
A trustworthy breeder welcomes visits, specializes in one or two breeds, prices fairly, and gives you time to decide without pressure.
Know Your State's Laws
Some states have lemon laws; others rely on contract law. Know your rights before you buy.
