means A Springer Spaniel — a medium-sized, energetic gun dog originally bred to flush ('spring') game birds from cover for hunters.

from The breed's name comes straight from its job: in the 18th century these spaniels were trained to 'spring' — startle and flush — hidden birds into the open so hunters could shoot or net them. 'Spring' in this sense meant 'to cause to burst forth suddenly,' a usage traceable to Old English 'springan' (to leap, burst out). English and Springer spaniels were originally the same stock, split by size into separate breeds in the late 1800s/early 1900s.
