Sussex Spaniel

The Sussex Spaniel is an excellent hunting companion. This is a strong, massive dog. This dog has a golden-liver colored coat that is flat or slightly wavy without being curled. The golden-liver color of its coat, especially at sunset, blends with the color of the trees and game, so hunters using Sussex Spaniels need to be very careful not to shoot their dog accidentally. This may be why the breed is not widespread.
