Spaniels, including the Kooiker breed depicted here, were originally developed as hunting companions in European wetlands, prized for their gentle temperament and keen water-retrieving skills. These medium-sized dogs are known for their affectionate, eager-to-please nature and distinctive long ears, which serve both practical and aesthetic purposes in their breed standard.
