These breeds have a sweet easygoing nature and are enjoyable to live with. Hard working in the field and easy keepers in the home, it’s a wonder this rare breed has not caught fancy with more households.

This breed was developed in the 1800’s by breeding the English Setter with the Picardy Spaniels. Known for its versatility, it works equally well on fur or feathered quarry. The coat is medium length with medium coarse/silky feathering on legs, undercarriage, ears and tail. Its color is black and white with heavy ticking (roaning) throughout that needs minimal grooming.

Closely related to the French spaniel the Picard spaniel is one of the oldest breeds of hunting dogs on the continent. Documents show that the breed was found in the vallys and mountains of Picardie. It was not till 1909 that the breed was finaly recognised as a race apart within the French spaniels.

The Epagneul Picard Spaniel is strong and muscular dog, but elegant and distinguished. The hight is 55 till 60 cm. The coat is chestnut brown with sandy coloured markings on the head and on the legs white or grey spots. The coat is
plentiful, with light waves over the whole body. This gives him good protection and makes him ideal for working in difficult and varied terrains.

His long ears are decorated with long fringes. The tail has a beautiful pluim, and is carried very eligantly. He carries his head high , his eyes are amber coloured and are wide open giving him a very free and expressive glance.
