Now there we go. I'm going with 23. Assuming I can get in on the first one and grab him by the rear legs. Then you use him as a flail.How many cocker spaniels do you think you could take in a fight?
I got this.

maybe drowning them was the pointNo dude. It was a field dog. They scamper through the brush and scare birdies so the hunter can plug them. Most importantly bring them back to the hunter so fat pig doesn't have to walk. They were trained to flush woodcock. Hence the name. Those things would drown if you threw them in after a duck. They can operate in a marsh however.
Nice. I think we all agreed this was also a sound technique for taking out a maximum number of 5 year olds.Now there we go. I'm going with 23. Assuming I can get in on the first one and grab him by the rear legs. Then you use him as a flail.

Apparently they do make great duck dogs. Primarily used down south.No dude. It was a field dog. They scamper through the brush and scare birdies so the hunter can plug them.

They can operate in a marsh however. Or at least they could. Working capabilities in any breed can easily be lost in a couple of generations if you don't performance breed. Many of our dogs are no longer capable of performing the tasks they were initially bred for. I have a pitbull that gets his ass kicked my Australian feral cat.
Hunting has been bred out of most spaniels you find in the US these days. If you want one for hunting you'd need to find a breeder who specializes in hunting stock. My cousin raises Brittanies for pheasant hunting and he drives half way across the country to get the right dogs. As for the cocker spaniel the ones bred from hunting stock don't even resemble the ones you'll see as the dog-show bred cockers most american households have.Pretty sure all spaniels are bird hunting dogs
There is a breed called a water spaniel you may be thinking of. Looks like a cross between a lab and a brittany.I think idea is spaniels are small enough that they won’t rock the boat when they leap out into the water to grab the duck you’ve shot or whatever
people buy them for their looks but they still have the hunting instincts from breeding
Totally trueAll jokes aside, it’s well documented that domesticated pets like dogs and particularly cats have hugely negative impacts on wildlife populations. To a point it’s actually driven some species to or close to extinction.
I’d be happy to see Australia’s practices adopted to mitigate this

I think that it would be fun fighting 23 5 year olds.Nice. I think we all agreed this was also a sound technique for taking out a maximum number of 5 year olds.
Nope, bare handed. But you can use an individual 5 year old as a weapon against the others.I think that it would be fun fighting 23 5 year olds.
Can I have a bat?
I let my dog off leash too, he doesn’t want to leave my sight. It’s in his blood to herd and be like Velcro to his owner.
that being said, despite the fact he pays other people and dogs no attention, he’s still my responsibility. If someone or their pet is uncomfortable with him off leash it is my responsibility to put him on the leash until it’s appropriate to remove it. The woman failed at this simple courtesy.
bird man was 100% in the right.
There are a few outliers. You'd be hard pressed to make that happen. Marshes, maybe. My friends who hunt duck have problems finding labradors who are capable working dogs now. They have been bred for nothing but looks. Tough to find one capable of fulfilling its original purpose.Apparently they do make great duck dogs. Primarily used down south.
boykin spaniels in South Carolina is the one I was thinking ofApparently they do make great duck dogs. Primarily used down south.
inbred all to helll and owned by pretentious people who treatI've never met a cocker spaniel that was sociable.
I think they’re mostly used in swamps and marshes as you said. Definitely not a dog for big water. There’s a good field and stream article on them for ducks I got to find.There are a few outliers.

All this aside, if you are afraid of a loose cocker spaniel, Jesus Alice. Stay home and quiver with fear. The world must terrify you.
And yes, crazy lady fucked up having the dog off leash. I'm just mocking the fear aspect of fluffy on the loose.
