COCKER SPANIEL RESCUE OF EAST TEXAS - HOUSTON

Another litter of puppies has been born into Cocker Spaniel Rescue. Jodi, was rescued from a local shelter and she has three hearty pups that will turn 8 weeks old on August 3. Super sized right from the start, Donnie, Marie and brother Jimmie are at least half cocker spaniel and the other half is . . . well that's something Jodi is keeping to herself. These guys are cute, lovable and almost ready to leave home. Marie, the little girl, already has a home lined up as soon as she gets her second round of puppy shots. Her brothers are still available. Mom, too, will be looking for a new home, but she won't be ready as fast because she's just been spayed and now needs to undergo heartworm treatment.

The supply of Cocker Kids that are in need of rescue far exceeds our capacity to take them in. No matter how many Cockers we place in good homes, there's another one waiting to come into our program. This issue of Cocker Kid Kismet reviews a few typical weeks on the recieving line. We bring in what we can and regretfully turn away the dogs that we can't foster.

You can still read back issues of CockerKid Kismet by going to the Kismet Archives.

With Brogan's adoption, we've brought back Case File #2008-3, Cassidy. Although not too old, by rescue standards, Cassidy has been with the program for a while. He came into the program with skin and eye issues. Both of which have been cleared up. As it turned out, the skin issues were an allergic reaction to his dog food. As a result, Cassidy is now one of our vegetarian cockers. Click the picture to read more about Cassidy, and learn about canine food allergies.
