Question
I have a 6 month old cocker spaniel and she sleeps and sometimes during the day has her tongue sticking slightly out is that normal? some say it is stress and others say that it is normal ?

Answer
This made me laugh.  Yes, it's normal so don't worry about it.
She's not stressed.  In fact she's totally relaxed.

I hope you're feeding this little girl a premium food?  She's still in her big growth spurt and supermarket food won't do it.
And don't use all kibble..too many carbs for cockers.

Canidae - Innova - Merrick - Eagle Pack Holistic - Fromm - Solid Gold - Newmans' Organics are all good.

Best of luck,
Delores
