About Us
 
WHO WE ARE, WHAT WE DO Founded in 1977, the Northeast English Cocker Spaniel Club has grown to serve over 60 members in New England, New York and some Mid-Atlantic states.

The mission of the Northeast English Cocker Spaniel Club is to support the English cocker Spaniel Club of America in its efforts to:

  • Encourage and promote the breeding of purebred English Cocker Spaniels and bring to perfection their natural high qualities.
  • Define precisely the true type of the breed and to publish definitions, if any be necessary, from time to time; to urge the adoption of such true type by breeders, judges, dog show committees, etc. as the only recognized standard of excellence by which English Cocker Spaniels are to be judged and awarded prizes of merit.

We do all in our power to protect and advance the interests of the English Cocker Spaniel breed by encouraging sportsmanlike competition in the show ring, in the obedience ring and in the field.  We offer prizes and support desirable shows, obedience trials and field trials under the rules and regulations of the American Kennel Club.  We  generally to do everything we can to promote the study, breeding, exhibiting, training and maintenance of purebred English Cocker Spaniels.

The club conducts shows, obedience trials, matches, hunt tests and other approved activities, under the rules and regulations of the American Kennel Club.
