This is the average growth span reported in Spaniel pups, although some may continue growing even after the first year of age

Such an exception is decided by the genes and their pedigree, however the same is completely normal

When growing up, the pup initially experiences height growth which is later followed by muscular growth

This is a very crucial phase in every pup's life and hence proper attention is a must if you don't want to have your pup miss out the right physical development

[{"selector":"#anim-a4d98426-e3f9-48a6-8d2d-648def2ca057","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-06d30e18-8268-4898-814d-c4572ab84e7c","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(112.08458%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Image source: Unsplash Image source: Unsplash spanieldogs.com spanieldogs.com

Similarly, even after the physical development is complete, the canine will go through other essential growth phases

This includes phases like socializing, sexual maturity, emotional growth and transition to their adult coat
