Rocky Mountain Cocker Rescue

Mickey

Mickey is a two year old male that came to us from the shelter in Ft. Morgan.  He clearly came from a good and caring home.  He was already micro-chipped when he came in, and didn’t mind having his fur clipped.  He is very well-behaved and very affectionate.  He has not had even a single accident in his foster home, and has been allowed loose alone in the house without incident.  Mickey is quiet and loving and gets along very well with the other dogs.  Mickey is  current on his shots and neutered.  

If you are interested in meeting him, please complete an online adoption application.

Lucy P

Lucy was presented to us as a Cockapoo, but we honestly don’t see much Poodle in the mix.  Her muzzle appears a little more pointed than that of a traditional Cocker Spaniel which may indicate some mix breeding.  She’s a wonderful little buff-colored girl who is very loving and fairly laid-back for her approximate three years of age.  Lucy is an owner surrender that came in with her pal, Lucky, after the sudden and unexpected death of her owner.  The wife works long shifts and cannot give them the attention they received from the husband who worked out of the house.

Lucy is up to date on her vaccinations and is micro chipped.  She seems to do well around children and other dogs.  We’re not sure about cats.  If you are interested in meeting Lucy, please complete an online adoption application.

Lucky P

Lucky is a wonderful Cavalier King Charles Spaniel/Cocker Spaniel mix that came to us from an owner surrender situation.  The husband was a work-at-home dad and spent a great deal of time with the dogs.  He passed away suddenly and unexpectedly and now the wife doesn’t have the same luxury of staying home with the dogs.  In order for them to get the attention that they were used to, she has asked us to help find a new home.

Lucky is a very loving and lively little guy.  At a recent adoption event, the tried to protect us all from the larger dogs!  He gives kisses freely and is a joy to be around.  He is house trained, does well on a leash and is up to date on vaccinations.  He is also micro chipped.  He came into rescue with a female partner named Lucy, but does not seem dependent on her.  He does well around kids of all ages and smaller dogs.  We’re not sure about cats.

Winston

Winston is a Cockapoo that came from a shelter in Kansas and was adopted to a family who very sadly must give him up due to allergies.

We have been told by the vet he is around 3 or 4 years of age. He is house trained, but does rely on a doggie door if left home alone. Winston absolutely loves people. He will follow you wherever you go. He does not care much for a kennel because he does not like to be away from people. He will find his own little spot at the end of your bed each night and and give you that feeling of security. He knows the commands sit, come, down, and occassionally stay.
You would think there was a little retreiver in him because he loves chasing a ball!  He is great with children. Older children who could give him tons of attention would be best.  An ideal home for him would be someone who loves to have a dog in their lap all the time and is willing to walk him often or play ball. He has a lot of energy.  His biggest fault is his barking. He is very protective of those he loves. He does wear a citronella spray collar which helps control the barking. He knows when that is on he can’t bark but has a cute little grumble!

Winston is up to date on his vaccinations and is micro-chipped.  If you are interested in meeting him, please complete an online adoption application.

Kesha

Kesha is a four year old black and white female Cocker Spaniel that is being surrendered by her owner.  Kesha has decided that she wants to be the boss and does not get along with the other dogs in the home – a toy Poodle and a Cockapoo.  Aside from her aggression towards these other dogs, she’s very sweet and loveable and enjoys cuddling with her owner.  Currently, Kesha is in a foster home with another Cocker Spaniel and they get along just fine.  Perhaps it’s just the smaller dogs that she wants to rule!

Kesha is spayed and up-to-date on her vaccines with the next round due in 2011 and the rabies towards the end of 2010.  She is house and crate trained.  She does cry for attention, but is satisfied when she’s acknowledged.  She’s had ear infections in the past, so care will need to be given to keep these under control.  She’s very gentle around children two and up, however we don’t know about cats.

If you are interested in meeting Kesha, please complete an online adoption application.

Squash

We think Squash was so named because of his coloring.  He a three year old golden/red sweetheart who is a taller Cocker boy.  He is a total lover and adores having his tummy rubbed!  He know sit, come, off, down, and cookie, and we’re working on wait.  He let us bathe him in the sink, use clippers on him, and trim his feet, so he should be fine at the groomer.  He is neutered, up to date on his shots, and microchipped.  Squash likes chasing balls, but hasn’t figured out how to bring them back yet!  He gets along well with his foster mom’s cats and the other dogs, and he spends all his time at her feet or on her lap.  Squash is crate trained and house trained and waiting here patiently for his forever home.

If you are interested in meeting Squash please fill out an online adoption application.

Pistol

Pistol is a five year old male Cocker Spaniel that is being surrendered by his owner.  They recently took him in when his original owner experienced some hardships, but it seems that he is not getting along with the resident Jack Russell even though he grew up with other dogs and got along with them very well.  He is very sweet with a great personality and would do well with another dog companion.

Pistol loves playing ball and going outside. He also enjoys walks. He will lay next to his owners on the floor.  Although he is house trained, he does have some issues with marking, but he is not yet neutered.  Once neutered, that should resolve some of those issues and training in that area will also help.  He’s still young enough to change those behaviors.

Pistol will be micro-chipped, neutered, and up to date on all of his vaccinations prior to being adopted.  If you are interested in meeting him, please complete an online adoption application.

Sundance

Sundance is Butch’s brother. He is about one year old and weighs around 20 lbs.  He is lively, interested and likes to be where his human is.  He loves people a bit more than toys and has a cheerful loving  nature.   He should be good around children and is a little possessive of his owner’s lap.   He is house trained, crate trained and  all around great dog who is a little shadow that wants to be where you are.

Sundance is neutered, micro-chipped and up to date on all of his vaccinations.  If you are interested in meeting Sundance, please complete an online adoption application.

Butch

Butch is one of twins around one year old.  He is housetrained and comfortable on leash.  Like every little boy, he loves to play with toys and he loves to be petted.  Soon he will figure out how to bring a toy and still set on a lap and he will be in heaven.  He gets along well with other animals but likes his human best.  He is  quiet, loving companion that should be good with children and loves back yards.

Butch is neutered, micro-chipped and up to date on all of his vaccinations.  If you are interested in meeting him, please complete an online adoption application.

Koontz

Koontz is a very affectionate little six month old boy with somewhat unusual coloration–he’s dark brown with some gold and white patches, and he is just beautiful.  As you can see from his pictures, he loves rawhide chewy toys!  Koontz came to us from Kansas where he was in a high-kill shelter and was hours away from being euthanized when he was relayed to us, but he immediately settled into his foster home.  He’s initially more friendly with women than men, but was playing with his foster uncle in the yard minutes after they met.  He is fully housebroken, crate trained, and chews nothing but his toys.  He has a little separation anxiety, as shown by barking for a minute or so when his foster mama leaves the room, but settles right down and plays quietly with the other dogs.  Koontz knows sit, off, come, wait and cookie, and loves to give kisses and play gently with feet.  He is neutered, microchipped, and has all his shots.  He’s good on a leash.  He’s just waiting for his forever home now.  Koontz would probably do best as an only dog.
