Experience the JOY of a Cocker Spaniel!
We have been one of the most versatile dog clubs in the country since 1946. For generations, we have loved our Cocker Spaniels. We take great care in our breeding programs to continuously improve the health, personality and overall quality of our dogs. We provide support for Cocker rescues. We have experienced the wonderful bonding with our dogs and friendships with other dog lovers that result from participating in our club events. We want you to experience that same joy with your Cocker Spaniel. Find your area of interest below the events and click on the link to learn more about how we might help you as a fellow dog lover.

Our Commitment to the Health of Cocker Spaniels
One of the things we are passionate about is the health of our Cocker Spaniels in current and future generations. Today, we research the health records of the ancestors of dogs before we breed them. We pay to have our dogs tested for hereditary health problems and catalog the results. Genetic testing is the future for avoiding hereditary health problems. The American Spaniel Club Foundation is sponsoring research into genetic testing for cataracts. The research is making good progress and we need to continue funding it. You can learn more about it on the ASC Foundation's website.
