English Toy Spaniel
The English Toy Spaniel is a small, aristocratic companion known for its distinct domed head and large, dark eyes. Historically favored by British monarchs, they are gentle and quiet lapdogs that thrive on human companionship. Unlike their more energetic spaniel cousins, they are relatively sedentary and perfectly suited for relaxed apartment living.
