Rocky Mountain Cocker Rescue

Charlie

Hi, I am Charlie. I am a young male Cocker Spaniel, between one and two years old and I have my entire tail! I had a very tough start in life. I was mistreated by my previous owner. I was left outside and barely fed. Fortunately, someone took pity on my and I was rescued and brought to Rocky Mountain Cocker Rescue.

When I first got to my foster house, I didn’t want to come inside and had no idea what steps were. I quickly learned that I can do both and love it! Despite my tough upbringing, I am an incredibly loving little boy. I love to be with other dogs and play with them. I also love to have my person scratch me for hours.

As you can see from the pictures, Charlie is a gorgeous black and white Cocker. He is up to date ono his shots and will be getting neutered prior to adoption. He’s also microchipped. He is very excitable when on a leash and he sees other dogs. He wants to play with them all!

If you are interested in meeting Charlie, please make sure you’ve completed an online adoption application.

DaVinci

DaVinic has an adoption application pending!

Hi, I am DaVinci. I am a black male Cocker Spaniel and I’m only around a year old.  Despite my heavy coat in these pictures, I am a very muscular boy. I’m getting a haircut soon!  I am, however, an absolute lover. I enjoy being with my people all the time and getting loving! I also get along well with other dogs and want to play with them all the time. I came in from Utah and am so happy to be back in a home with loving family. I have been neutered and am up to date on my shots. They even tell me they will chip me before I am adopted, whatever that means.

Fudge

Fudge is a 10 month old chocolate cocker that is looking for a home without children and where he will be the only dog since he is very protective of his food and toys. He is competitive and playful and loves his chew toys. He enjoys playing in the yard and is a graceful runner that loves exercise. He is house trained and knows basic commands. He enjoys lots of attention and care, and will benefit from a dog obedience class that will rein in his youthful exuberance. Fudge will reward an owner that gives him consistent direction and loving attention.

Fudge is neutered and up to date on his vaccinations.  RMCR will ensure that he is microchipped for his new owner.

Skipper

Skipper is a three year old male Cocker Spaniel that came to us from one of the Denver shelters.  He’d been picked up as a stray and no one claimed him. 

Skipper impressed the folks at the shelter because he seemed to know basic commands.  He also did not soil his kennel, preferring to wait to go outside to do his business.   With reinforcement, praise and consistency he will most likely be fully house trained.  He was neutered when he came into rescue and has had all of his vaccinations.  RMCR will microchip him for you.

He is very friendly, likes to go on walks and be with you and follow you around.  He has a long tail that doesn’t stop wagging.  He appears that he should to be an only dog.  He is very, very possessive of tennis balls and he loves to play tug of war.  Because of his possessiveness,  we recommend that he not go to a home with small children.  We’re not sure how he reacts to cats, so a cat-free home is probably best.

Cooper

Cooper is a six year old white male Cocker Spaniel.  He has a full tail and weighs around 29 pounds.  Cooper is hearing-impaired and may be totally deaf, although he gets along just fine.  He was badly matted when he was found so we don’t know how long he had been stray or what his living conditions were prior to being picked up.  Cooper traveled all the way to Denver to find a new home.  He is neutered and up to date on all of his vaccinations.  RMCR will microchip him for his new owners.

He is a real lover. The only thing he desires is attention and love of his person. He doesn’t want just a little scratching; he wants long term attention! He is good with the other dogs and doesn’t display any aggression at all. So far, he seems to be housebroken and knows that the outside is where you do your business.  Cooper would make a fabulous addition to any home looking for a devoted pet.

Charley

Meet Charley!  He’s around eight years old , while with black markings, and is looking for a new home because his owners are relocating and cannot take him along.  Shhh! – don’t tell his owners, but Charley told us he likes Colorado anyway.

Charley is around 40 pounds, is house trained and crate trained. He has a lot of energy and sticks close to home. Over the years he has become afraid of thunder but is happy to wait out the storm in his crate. He’s great with kids, cats and other dogs.. He is well trained as he has had both obedience and home training. Although he has been taught to perform well on a lead, he hasn’t been walked in awhile, so his new owners would need to work with him to remind him of these skills. He is completely up to date on his vaccinations (rabies due in 2013).

If you are interested in meeting Charely, please make sure you have completed an online adoption form.

Joe

Joe is a sweet, affectionate, buff-and-white, male American Cocker Spaniel.  We estimate his age to be approximately 3-4 years old.

Joe was surrendered to the shelter in Phoenix and is coming to RMCR.  He is not excessively energetic; however, he loves romping in the yard with other dogs and tries to play cats. He plays well with children as young as 5-years-old. He’s a little shy at first and somewhat insecure until he gets to know someone new, but once he warms up he is just a lover who enjoys people’s attention. He loves to play with balls and squeaky toys and he is learning tug-of-war with the other dogs. As you can see by his pictures, he loves rawhide chewies, also!

Joe does have issues with men initially, but he can be sweet talked with gentle voices, petting and yummy treats. He warms up quickly and should not have any problems after an initial adjustment period.

He is house-trained and crate-trained and uses the crate voluntarily. At night he is loose in the house and does not have any accidents. This very gentle boy is learning his basic commands such as ‘sit’ and ‘come’, but only ‘come’ is solid at this point. He has not shown any resource guarding issues; his foster mom can take away his food or chew toy without incident. He is neutered and up-to-date on his shots, so he’s ready for his new forever home! If you are willing to work with him and socialize him to strangers, he will be a wonderful best friend for you!

If you are interested in meeting Joe, please make sure you have completed and online adoption application.

Riley

Riley is approximately three years old and he is a buff colored male Cocker Spaniel.  He is an owner surrender.

Riley’s owner has found that he can’t spend enough time with him and he wants to find a home for Riley where he will get more attention and play-time.  He’s quite small – less than twenty pounds and gets along with dogs and cats that have come to visit, plus he’s been good around kids.  RMCR will ensure that he is up to date on his vaccinations and that he is microchipped for his new owner.  He is house trained, but has the occasional accident, so his new owner will need to reinforce his house training with frequent, regular trips outside and lots of praise when he gets it right.  He’s had problems with skin allergies, but generally a good kibble with a novel protein such as fish, venison or duck will help with that issue.  He knows some basic commands and is eager to please.

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

Bear

Bear is a large buff Cocker Spaniel male, approximately three years old. While he is large, he is not overweight, just especially muscled. He is also a sweetheart who loves to be around his people all the time. Bear wants to be near them and will sometimes force his way through, around or over another dog to do so. He definitely doesn’t respect other dogs “personal space”. For this reason, he would be best around a more passive dog or as an only dog. He does get along well with other dogs in every other way. He LOVES his chew toys and will chew on them and make them squeak for hours. Bear’s new family will need to reinforce the house training that he is currently learning in his foster home. He’s very smart, so this should be a behavior that is easily retained.

Bear is up to date on all vaccinations and is neutered. We’re not sure how he would react to cats. We would recommend that he go to a home with older children.

Buddy (9 year old buff)

Buddy is a nine year old neutered buff  male Cocker Spaniel who recently lost his owner.  They had been together since Buddy was a puppy.  He is now living with his owner’s sister but isn’t getting along with the other dogs in the family.  She is hoping that we can help find a home where Buddy can be the only dog in the home.  Buddy gets along with the other dogs in the dog park, but he doesn’t want to share affection with other dogs in the home.

Buddy has had knee surgery and it bothers him sometimes, but rest seens to help.  He also suffers occasionally from allergies.  Otherwise, he’s healthy.  Buddy is house trained and can be trusted to be left inside unsupervised.  He knows basic commands.  He is up to date on his vaccinations (due Spring 2012).  He loves to go to the dog park and play fetch.

Cocker Spaniels typically have a life span of 15-16 years, so Buddy has a long life ahead of him.  If you love seniors like we do and would be willing to give Buddy a new home, he would be a great companion.

If you are interested in meeting Buddy, please make sure you have  completed an online adoption application.
