Featured Pet
Sammy has been with our group since March 2003. You can imagine how well I've gotten to know him. He's a very special cocker with a unique, funny personality. He was surrendered by his owners because he has "disciplinary issues". What this means in a nutshell is that he has to be disciplined delicately. If you raise your voice to him, or make him feel "threatened" in any way, he feels he has to defend himself. Who can't understand that? He needs someone he can trust. He has built a trust with me (Kat, his foster mom) and I rarely have any trouble with him. I actually think he's one of the sweetest, most wonderful cockers we've had here. You can APPLY HERE to adopt this special boy or EMAIL ME to ask for additional information!

AGE: 2 years Likes: Playing, romping, with you, other dogs, the cats (my cats play with him), loves tennis balls, loves toys, bones, and anything he can play with. If no one will play with him, he'll toss the bone, or the ball for himself and run after it. Loves to sit at your feet and have you rub his belly or will bite at your feet until your romp with him. Likes to sing to certain songs, seems to really like the end song of Lord of the Rings and certain songs by Evanescence will get him to sing along. Dislikes: Getting into trouble for bad behaviors like mole chasing in the backyard, barking at the neighbor dogs, or trying to eat out of the litterbox (ewww) Training: Sammy has had a few classes of clicker obedience at Petsmart. He learns quick and part of his adoption will include a $20 off coupon for training classes through Petsmart. He pulls on his leash some also.

About Us
Cocker Paws began in Feb. 2001. We opened our home to abandoned cockers because
of our love for the breed. We found too often that this breed is misunderstood
and quickly purchased as a puppy and dumped as a young adult even quicker. The
cocker breed has problems that should be considered prior to ANY purchase or
adoption. This is the same with any breed of dog or cat, even mixed breeds. We
are privately owned and funded and often pay our own bills late to help pay for
the need of our pets. Each dog is treated as our own while in our care, and they
are all fully vetted and altered. We are only able to help a few cockers at a
time.
Thanks,
Kat
