News & Events-Adoption Event
on Sunday, May 19th, 2013
Below is a list of planned adoption events for Rocky Mountain Cocker Rescue for June 2013.
Stop by and visit! There is never a shortage of work to do or Cocker Spaniels to rescue, so there are many opportunities for volunteers and foster families. If you would like to contribute in any way, we are looking for committed volunteers. Just ask one of the representatives at any of the adoption events for more information! If you would like to apply to be a volunteer or a foster, you can find the application on the volunteer tab of the website.
RMCR can only save dogs when we have available foster homes. We cover all expenses for fosters; you only have to provide the home, love and socialization! If you are interested or want more information, stop by one of our events and talk to the volunteers. Most are also fosters and they can tell you how rewarding it can be!

Meet Zero, Bear and Bodhi.. these boys are just 3 of the amazing little dogs that we need foster homes for. Would you please consider opening your heart and home to one of these sweet babies? Our average foster needs a home for about 3 weeks. There is no finical commitment, RMCR will provide food for the foster dog and will provide the vet care. RMCR is in desperate need of foster homes. We can only take in as many dogs as we have homes for. Sometimes this means death for the babies we can’t take in. Please call 303-617-1939 or email inquires@rockymountaincockerrescue.org for more information.
