Are American Cocker Spaniels single or double coated???
Cocker Spaniels are single coated dogs. The Cocker coat is one of the most dense of all single coats, with more hairs psi then most any other breed. A double coat has a soft wooly or cottony undercoat, and a harsh or coarser, longer outercoat. Collies, Australian Shepherds and Samoyeds are some long coated/double coated breeds, German Shepherds, Siberian Huskies and Akitas are short coated/double coated breeds. Maltese, shih tzu, and Cockers are some that have long single coats. Boxers, Boston Terriers and Doberman Pinschers have short single coats.
