If just the whites are red, that could just be normal or could be irritated by allergies or something in the eye (dust, a piece of fur, etc).
If it was cherry eye, you would know

He may have conjunctivitis (an infection of the eye). Cockers especially can get this. He also might have glaucoma, which is very serious. If he is acting like his eyes hurt and squinting, he should go to the vet immeditely (if it is glaucoma, it needs to be treated urgently). If not, and it stays red or if there is any discharge, he should go to the vet and maybe get some antibiotic ointment. My cocker (ECS) has had this and the antibiotic/steroid ointment clears it up quickly.
Good Luck!

Well his eyes are never bothered by it, that I can see. What do you mean by discharge? Because he's got tear marks and stuff by his eyes. But I thought that was normal.

Tear marks are normal; gooey or gunky green discharge is what they're referring to
