"Dog Experts Reveal: 15 Breeds That Will Make Your Home Life Amazing"

3. The Sussex Spaniel Forms Strong Bonds With Loved Ones

For those looking for a more calm and emotionally steady dog friend, the Sussex Spaniel is a very outstanding alternative. These amazing dogs have a temperament that exactly balances devotion with stability; their rich golden-liver coats and naturally frowning looks set them apart. These spaniels shine in creating deep, close relationships with their family members, even with their hunting dog background—which sometimes shows in their urge to retrieve.

Their even-tempered demeanour makes them especially ideal for homes looking for a dog that preserves a constant emotional state, therefore avoiding the tremendous highs and lows that define some other breeds. Their human friends often find great delight in the Sussex Spaniel's happy attitude, which contrasts well with their rather doleful appearance. Although they are scarce, especially outside their native United Kingdom and the United States, thanks to committed breeding initiatives their availability has been gradually rising. Their natural tenderness makes them great friends for families of all ages; their hunting heritage helps to explain their intelligence and trainability.
