Question

Is 40 minutes to an hour of exercise enough for an adult English Springer Spaniel?

Kevin Sanada, DVM · Accepted Answer

If you can do 40-60 minutes of exercise once a day, then that would be great for a Springer Spaniel. These dogs tend to be a bit high-strung, so it's difficult to say if it's enough. Ideally these dogs would have some space to run around during the day. Having at-least one exercise period a day is great, but you also want to make sure they don't have long periods of being confined to a small area alone. This could result in behavioral issues even if there was a good exercise period during the day.
