The Field Spaniel is an active and inquisitive breed, and makes a good companion.
However, if left alone and unoccupied for long periods of time, they may become bored and destructive.
They are suitable for dog agility and hunting.
They are also patient with children and like to stay close to their family.
When socialised, they are good with other dogs.
They are generally docile and independent, and are not as excitable as Cocker Spaniels.
Stanley Coren's The Intelligence of Dogs lists the breed as being above average in working intelligence.
