All dogs shed hair. If shedding or hair on your clothing are going to be problems for you, then a Cocker Spaniel may not be the best breed choice for you. They require plenty of grooming to maintain their beautiful coats in healthy condition and with lowered noticeable shedding. However, any dogs with longer silky coats will have more noticeable shedding than some other breeds, not because they shed more or more often, but because longer hair, like that on Cockers piles up faster.

Before you decide one way or the other on this breed, read up about the breed and its grooming needs and, if possible, visit a responsible breeder to see the actual grooming process and ask questions. They will be best able to help you evaluate if that breed will be a good fit for you and your family. You can find contact information for good local breeders through the AKC Chapter in your area.

Definitely, I had a cocker spaniel/fox terrier mix and she (Allie) shed a lot. Every summer, we got enough hair off of her to make a small sweater. The dog looked like Benjie but with big cocker spaniel eyes.

Fur, like every other dog.

---Actually, some dogs have hair, Bichons, Poodles, they have HAIR - not fur...so, not like every-other dog. But I do believe Spaniels have FUR.

Cocker spaniels are not shedless dog. There are several breeds of dogs that do not need to shed but cocker spaniels are not one of them.

I had a cocker spaniel and if you keep them washed and brushed I don't believe they do. I never noticed any hair around the house. Good dogs...I didn't have small children though.
