Rocky Mountain Cocker Rescue

Minnie

Minnie is an adorable spayed brown and white cocker spaniel and is two years old.  She loves to play and chew on rawhides. She is a bit shy with other doggies but is learning to come and go with the pack. She is terrified of stairs when she is the last to go down or up. She is cuddly, loveable and willing to learn quickly. She will be great with a single woman who will give her lots of attention. She loves to go for rides in the car with her foster mom.  Sometimes she will piddle in excitement when mom gets home, but knows to poop outside. She should outgrow this behavior as she becomes more confident.

Minnie is up to date on her vaccinations and is micro-chipped.  If you are interested in meeting her, 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.

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.

Sissy

Sissy is a rambunctious six year old black and white Cocker Spaniel with a full mask over her eyes.  She loves to eat and play with the cats but adores going on walks and rides in the car. She also likes to play with her cousin Biscuit.  In reality, they probably aren’t related at all, but they look the same and came in to rescue together!

Sissy is is up-to-date on her vaccinations, is neutered and micro-chipped.  She is fine around other dogs and should be fine with children of all ages.  If you are interested in meeting Sissy, please fill out an online adoption application.

Lady

Lady is a lively, agile, and affectionate Velcro Cocker.  Lady is a four year old  darling who was owned by a backyard breeder in Missouri.  She’s been neutered, so those days are behind her! She stays close to her foster mama and loves being petted all over.  She is a dainty, pretty little thing who is very thin right now–nothing that lots of food can’t fix, and she’s getting plenty!  Lady’s right eye was damaged before she came into foster care, so we’re having it removed soon.  It will be neatly closed, so it will look like she’s winking at you all the time.  Unlike the way people respond to such things, she doesn’t know she has a problem!  She gets around perfectly well up and down stairs, around the yard, and every place all the other dogs go–and at the same speed.  Lady is perfectly house-trained, only chews on her own toys, and loves romping with the other dogs.  She has shown no separation anxiety at all.  Lady has had free run of her foster home, and she even gets along with the cats.  She knows sit and come, and we’re working on some other commands.  Meet her once and she will steal your heart!

Lady is up-to-date on her vaccinations and micro-chipped.  She should be fine with children of all ages.  If you are interested in meeting Lady, please fill out an online adoption application.

Sassy

Sassy is a four year old black and brown female Cocker Spaniel that was a puppy mill mother that her current owners adopted from the Humane Society last February.  She displays some typical traits of puppy mill mothers that will take patience and training to overcome.  Along with the fact that there’s a new baby on the way, the owners feel that this new obligation will take time away from working with Sassy’s training and is looking for someone willing to give her the attention she deserves.

Sassy is crate trained and enjoys nesting in her crate.  Due to her history, she has some house training issues that are resolved by using the crate.  She is doing well on the lead, especially with the help of a gentle leader.  She absolutely LOVES to play ball and is awesome at bringing it back and never seems to tire of the game.  She gets along with other dogs, but we don’t know about cats.  She should be fine  with older children, but we would caution aginst toddlers just in case.

Sassy is spayed and up to date on her vaccinations.  She’s super sweet and healthy, so if you are interested in meeting her or would like additional information, please complete an online adoption application.

Cassie

Cassie is a little hard to describe.  It is hard to believe a dog can be house trained (to a limit), leash trained, create trained and THEN be this sweet and affectionate.   She really needs a home with a yard so that she can spend time outside until she relieves herself.  She doesn’t understand the concept of going for a walk for that specific reason.  She is good with children and other animals.  She has been bounced around a lot and needs steady affection and stability to make life perfect.  No chance she won’t win your heart instantly.   Cassie is between 2-3 years old, weighs around 25 pounds, is spayed, micro-chipped and is up to date on her vaccinations. 

Cassie came to us from Missouri where she was a mill mama, so she’s still a little timid and is trying hard to learn the ropes.  If you can find room in your heart to give this little girl the loving home she deserves, please complete an online adoption application.

Penny

Penny is a four year old female spayed Cockapoo. She is looking for a home with a single woman who lives in a single family dwelling.  Penny is a barker that is frightened of men, so she is looking for an experienced owner that will help her change this behavior.  She’s mostly house trained and is good with children and cats.  She enjoys chew bones and going on walks.  She is not crate trained.

Penny will be up to date on her vaccinations prior to adoption and will be micro-chipped.

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

Ginger

Ginger is a beautiful chocolate female Cocker Spaniel that came to RMCR from Kansas.  She’s approximately 2 years old.  Ginger tested positive for heartworm and has been treated for the illness and should be able to live a normal active life.  She has a fatty tumor on her underside which the vets have declared a non-issue.

Ginger is a sweetheart that will do well in any home.  Her very favorite activity is having her tummy rubbed!  Ginger loves exploring outdoors and, like many cockers, keeps her nose to the ground, and when happy, wiggles her entire back half!  Since she loves to be out doors, she would love to have a home with a fenced yard that she can explore. She is completely house trained, up -to-date on her vaccinations, spayed and micro-chipped.  She does well with other dogs, and although she is not currently in a home with children, we feel she would be fine with kids of all ages.  We’re unsure about cats. 

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

 ***********************************************************

“Bellisimo” or “Bella” is my name! I am only 6 months old and have not had anyone want to take care of me yet! I was shifted from home to home as a small puppy and people just did not have any time for me. My foster mom wants to find someone who will take me to doggie obedience school, take me for walks on leash, and maybe even go play at a dog park! She says I’m beautiful and have lots of potential! I have been learning my house manners and doing very well. All of my shots are up-to-date and I’ve been dewormed too! I am getting spayed on April 13th, so I am ready and rearing to find my new home! ***********************************************************
