Cob just means the horses tail is cut off but not completely.
A cob is a body type not a breed. They generally stand between 14.2 and 15.2hh and are of stocky build. Cob types were often used for light haulage and many of them have the general appearance of small draft horses.
The practice of cutting off a horses tail is called docking and has largely fallen out of favour as it is a cruel and unneccessary practice. A lot of draft breeds like the Clydesdale have naturally short docks (tail bone) so there is no need to cut it off
