At The UpScale Tail Pet Grooming Salon, we listen to our clients needs to best determine, short or long trimmed coat, for their Cocker Spaniel.

The AKC.org reports the breed to have been exhibited in the US since the 1880s, the Cocker Spaniel remains one of the most popular breeds according to AKC® registration statistics. The Cocker has a sturdy, compact body and a silky, flat or wavy coat. A cheery and well-balanced dog that is capable of considerable speed and great endurance. Cocker Spaniels can be black, black with tan points, parti-colored or any solid color other than black (ASCOB).

As far back as the 14th Century there is mention of the Spanyell, which came to be divided into water and land spaniels. "Cockers" are the smallest of the spaniels and the Sporting Group. The American Cocker has evolved somewhat differently in appearance from the breed now recognized as the English Cocker Spaniel. A capable hunting dog covering territory speedily, flushing game and retrieving only when under command. He takes to water readily.
