Kept away from any body of water too....my aunt's two Cockers were an absolute nightmare for rolling in anything disgusting and disappearing off into lakes for extended swims. One would do lengths of the local lake for an hour, absolutely impervious to instruction to the contrary. Sweet doggos, even if the prettier of the two bit me. That one had the dreaded cocker rage, she was fine most of the time and after a while, you figured out when to leave her alone.
Ha! I’ve lucked out, definitely. Had springers before they were hilarious... so bonkers. I do keep her busy though.
