BEST ANSWER: The leaves are prickly, but the American Holly grows into a fairly large tree - 15 to 20 feet high at early maturity, and they keep growing slowly to 30 and even 40 feet. You need to consider choosing another plant for your hedge, one that is naturally small.EST ANSWER: The leaves are prickly, but the American Holly grows into a fairly large tree - 15 to 20 feet high at early maturity, and they keep growing slowly to 30 and even 40 feet.

Answer by cowohhh (569) The average life expectancy of a Springer Spaniel is generally about ten to fifteen years of age. However, there are certain conditions that can undermine the life expectancy of your dog. This would include diet, exercise, genetic factors or even grooming.
Here is a website for life expectancies of dogs. http://www.pets.ca/pettips/tips-46.htm As with all things, environment plays a role (food, inoculations etc...) I have an English Cocker spaniel who is 16 years and three months. She is healthy, but has been deaf for several years and her sight is poor. She is not incontinent, but does not do anything in the right place!! She is fairly predictable as to when she will urinate, etc and sleeps a lot. She also has some problems with her back legs.
