My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Available in two weeks as long as recovery goes well after cherry eye repair surgery that has just been done. He is now on recovery time. If you are interested in adopting this sweet Cocker Spaniel boy, please fill out an application by going to charlottecockerrescue.org to download and save our application. Email your filled out application back to us to be approved. We will review it and return calls. All vet care must be completed.

Meet Buddy, a 1 year and 3-month-old neutered Cocker Spaniel boy. He was turned into a NC shelter with the owners saying he had started nibbling at their feet, and they didn't want their grandchildren to get hurt. They had him in their home for two months after getting him from someone else.

This sweet boy needs an adult only home. No kids or grandkids due to his unstable past. He has been in 4 different homes. When our volunteer picked him up, she quickly learned that he is a sweet, sweet guy, tough on a leash and a very sad Cocker boy. When he meets or sees other dogs, he barks at them. At rescue vet appointment, we were told he has a mild heart murmur that may be parasite related plus yeasty ears. Both of these issues are being treated. He also has bilateral cherry eyes. HW & fecal status is negative. Surgery repair for his cherry eye issues was scheduled and has been done. He is on recovery time. All vet care will be addressed before he can be adopted out. He was dirty with several mats and has been groomed. A new owner will need a lot of patience. A fenced yard is a must. He will need to trust you to make progress as he acts like he doesn't know kindness, love, attention or how to handle noises and being around other dogs. It is possible that his sadness is from being left alone too much, mistreated or simply never receiving much attention. He might be okay with a calm, easy going dog social pal who can be his mentor or best as your only dog. With a patient owner, we feel that he can blossom and thrive. Someone who can offer him stability, kindness, love and attention but at a slow pace, so he doesn't get too overwhelmed. An owner who won't give up on him is a must. He deserves to know the real meaning of kindness and being loved as a companion in your home.

His adoption fee will be $500.
