Moving on to the second part of our article, we will present the most suitable dogs for such a hunting adventure. The first dog we will review is the American Water Spaniel:
The American Water Spaniel has a crisp-textured, tightly cured coat lined with a protective undercoat. The coat colors can be liver/chocolate and sometimes the dogs can have a small white spot on their chest. The dog has a medium-length muzzle that is smooth and square. The American Water Spaniel has either a black or dark nose and an eye color that should match the coat color ( shades of brown/hazel ).
The second and final dog we present is the Beagle which is a sturdy and squarely-built hardy small hound that has an easy-care and sleek short coat. The coat can come in any hound color, for example: tri-color, black & tan, red & white, orange & white or lemon & white. The Beagle is similar in appearance with the English Foxhound. The dog's muzzle is square and straight and the skull is broad and a bit rounded. The Beagle hound has wide ears that are pendant. The dog's brown/hazel eyes have a unique pleading expression.
