Chesapeake Bay Retriever versus English Springer Spaniel: Overview
Both the Chesapeake Bay Retriever and the English Springer Spaniel are similar in size. The Chesapeake Bay Retriever and the English Springer Spaniel are both medium-sized dogs.
Furthermore, both the Chesapeake Bay Retriever and the English Springer Spaniel are Sporting Dogs. This means both the Chesapeake Bay Retriever and the English Springer Spaniel were bred to help hunters catch and retrieve feathered game. Some sporting dog breeds such as Retrievers, which were built for swimming, were bred to hunt waterfowl in water. Whereas sporting dog breeds like setters, spaniels, and pointing breeds were bred to hunt quail, pheasant, and other game birds nest on grasslands. Many Sporting Group breeds have thick, water-repellent coats that protect them from harsh hunting conditions.

The Intelligence of the Chesapeake Bay Retriever versus the Intelligence of the English Springer Spaniel
| Chesapeake Bay Retriever | English Springer Spaniel | |
|---|---|---|
| Intelligence Rank | 27 out of 130 dog breeds | 13 out of 130 dog breeds |
| Trainability | Tend To Learn New Commands After 15 To 25 Repetitions | Tend To Learn New Commands After 5 To 15 Repetitions |
Professor Stanley Coren, the famous psychology/neuropsychological professor and, dog lover/trainer measured and ranked the intelligence of about 130 different dog breeds.
According to Prof. Stanley Coren, the total intelligence that a dog demonstrates is the addition of three types of intelligence. These intelligence types are:
Prof. Coren showed that the Working/Obedience Intelligence of different dog breeds can be measured reliably. Thus, he was able to rank different dog breeds based on their Working/Obedience Intelligence.
This is important because according to Prof. Coren, 51 percent of a dog`s intelligence comes from its genes while 49 percent of a dog`s intelligence comes from the dog`s environmental circumstances.
To rank the intelligence of dog breeds, Prof. Coren employed the help of 208 dog obedience judges in North America to fill out a detailed survey on dog obedience. This number represented more than half of all of these judges in North America at the time. He also employed 63 veterinarians and 14 guard dog experts to collect data on the personality of different dog breeds.
Prof. Coren found that the Chesapeake Bay Retriever has an obedience intelligence rank of 27 out of 130 dog breeds. The Chesapeake Bay Retriever belongs to the `Above Average Working Dogs` category. This means that Chesapeake Bay Retrievers tend to learn new commands after 15 to 25 repetitions.
The English Springer Spaniel has an obedience intelligence rank of 13 out of 130 dog breeds. The English Springer Spaniel belongs to the `Excellent Working Dogs` category. This means that English Springer Spaniels tend to learn new commands after 5 to 15 repetitions.
The English Springer Spaniel is more intelligent than the Chesapeake Bay Retriever.
However, Prof. Coren noted that a dog should not be judged based on its intelligence alone, that other factors such as sociability, adorability, and compatibility with the owner are other very important factors that new dog owners need to consider when deciding on a new dog.
The Popularity of Chesapeake Bay Retriever versus Popularity of English Springer Spaniel

Health Problems of Chesapeake Bay Retriever versus Health Problems of English Springer Spaniel
Every dog breed has its own set of health problems that it has a tendency to develop. Therefore, there is nothing like a perfect puppy.
Both the Chesapeake Bay Retriever and the English Springer Spaniel are prone to certain genetic health conditions. The Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA) is the organization that keeps track of health problems in dogs. Based on the extensive records that the OFA keeps, the OFA knows what health problems each dog breed is naturally prone to develop. Hence, the OFA recommends which health screening that breeders should perform on a dog breed to make sure that the breeders won`t breed `defective` dog parents that can pass down defective genes to their puppy offspring.
The more health problems a dog breed is prone to develop, the more health tests the OFA will recommend for that dog breed.
Based on our review of OFA records, we found that the English Springer Spaniel is prone to more genetic health problems than the Chesapeake Bay Retriever.
This is because the OFA recommends more screening health tests for the English Springer Spaniel than for the Chesapeake Bay Retriever.
8 health tests are recommended for Chesapeake Bay Retriever while 12 tests are recommended for the English Springer Spaniel.
Below is a detailed discussion of health problems in Chesapeake Bay Retrievers and in English Springer Spaniels.
Chesapeake Bay Retriever Health Problems
Chesapeake Bay Retrievers are genetically prone to certain health problems. However, breeders can reduce the chances of producing Chesapeake Bay Retriever puppies with genetic defects by making sure that a puppy`s parents are free from genetic health problems before allowing the parent to make puppies.
The OFA provides breeders recommendations on which genetic diseases that breeders should screen their dog parents and puppies for.
If you want a Chesapeake Bay Retriever puppy that will grow up to be healthy, make sure that your Chesapeake Bay Retriever breeder screens your puppy or your puppy`s parents for the health problems that the OFA recommends for your puppy`s breed. This will increase the chances that your puppy is free from genetic defects.
The following are the health tests that Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA) recommends that breeders should screen Chesapeake Bay Retrievers for:

*To learn more about each of these diseases, go to OFA.org and search for the disease.
Again, most of these health problems can be prevented through health screening. Responsible breeders screen male and female dog parents for genetic problems. These breeders will only breed dogs that are free of genetic defects. That way, there is little or no chance that their puppies will grow up to have genetic health problems. Always ask a breeder for the list of health tests the breeder screens their dogs for before buying a puppy from such a breeder.
