A Yankee Doodle original, the American Water Spaniel hails from the state of Wisconsin, where in the town of New London Dr F J Pfeifer developed this all-around sporting dog that could retrieve and flush for the upland hunter. Medium in size and coloured in chocolate or liver, the American Water Spaniel excels as both a retriever and a spaniel. Author Paul R Morrison, an active AWS breeder and sportsman, traces the breed's origins back to Civil War days, chronicling the many legends that have evolved about this curly-coated field spaniel. A friendlier, smarter hunting companion cannot be found - the AWS remains one of America's best kept secrets.

This book also provides an excellent introduction to dog showing and trailing, sports that welcome enthusiastic newcomers on a weekendly basis. A special chapter on preventative healthcare, written by renowned veterinarian Dr Lowell Ackerman, provides up-to-date, accurate information on inoculations, parasites, spaying/netuering and much more.
