The Kooikerhondje is a petite spaniel with Dutch roots and an easygoing temperament. Don't let the long name put you off from getting to know this unique dog breed-many people refer to these dogs as Kooikers for short. The compact size and friendly nature of these sporting dogs have made them a reliable companion for duck hunters for centuries, but today they're masters of canine competition including flyball and agility. The Kooiker also makes a low-maintenance and alert family companion, but can have a sensitive nature and a wary with strangers. The distinctive white and orange (or red) coat is eye-catching, but one of the Kooiker's most notable features are the long black hairs adorning the ears. Often referred to as 'earrings, ' this feathering is a desirable trait in Kooikers.
