ECSCA AOPTIONS OR PRIVATE PLACEMENT DESCRIPTIONS

Michigan: Carson
Carson is a four year old, neutered, red male. His owner can no longer afford to keep two dogs and have decided it would be best to find Carson a new home. Here is some info about Carson.
He is a bit shy with new people and it is better to let him approach when he is ready. Otherwise he does a lot of barking and backing away. He has been around young children that have done a lot of grabbing, so is very unsure around them. He has been around another male dog his whole life and they get along fine. He also has a male beagle that visits this home that he has never had any issues with either. |
This fellow is sweet and affectionate. He loves to play especially ball, is good on car rides, and will make someone the most loyal pet.
He is housebroken but has always done his business in a concrete dog run. His owners don't think they have ever seen him go potty on the lawn. Carson does not like to get wet, so if it has been raining he would rather stay inside then go out and do his business, so you have to watch him.
He has never been sick and has only visited the Vet. for just his yearly vaccinations and such like that. He is up-to-date with those.
Carson needs a home with older children; he seems fine with other dogs.

North Carolina: Millie
Millie is a 3 year old, spayed, blue roan, field-bred English Cocker who was found as a stray in the Fayetteville, NC area. She is healthy although will need one follow-up worming and perhaps some ear care. Millie is very sweet, although a bit dominant with small dogs. The foster mom feels she would be fine with dogs her own size or larger and would like to see Millie go to a home with another dog or two to play with, since she is very active. The foster mom suspects Millie might make a great agility dog. She appears to be very comfortable with kids, although she might play a little rough for very young children. Millie is housebroken and not destructive. She loves to carry stuffed toys around. She is easy to walk on a lead and knows some basic commands.

| SENIOR/SPECIAL NEEDS DOGS |
Please
consider adopting one of
our older EC's. These dogs
are truly in need because
they are less in demand.
But, they have lots of love left
to give and you could always
add a younger dog later. The life
span of the average English Cocker
is 12-14 years. Adopting an
older dog is also a great way to
get acquainted to our breed.
Keep in mind that our waiting list is long,
but for those who have a space in their
hearts for a "middle-aged" dog,
the rewards can be enormous AND
you will more likely be matched with a dog
much sooner.

Connecticut:
Buddy (On Hold)
Buddy is a 9 yo neutered red male who lost his home due to home foreclosure on owners. He is good with cats and likely will be happier as an only dog or with a non-dominant dog . He is also good with kids but will protest if approached while eating food or gnawing on a bone. He whimpers in the car,so may not be ideally suited for long distance or frequent travel..Despite his age ,he is active and likes to fetch balls and he's very healthy.
For more information contact Vanessa Weber 860-399-0090 ext or kenjockety@cshore.com

His owners are generously providing his new “people” with Caleb’s sleeping crate, a collapsible traveling crate, a supply of dog food, a “halti” collar (for walks), leashes, dog toys as well as food and water bowls. In addition, they have offered to transport him a reasonable distance to help him arrive in his forever home.

Nevada: Nettie & Yuppie
Nettie and Yuppie are sisters who found themselves needing a new home earlier this summer after their owner passed away. They have been well-cared for and are currently in foster care, but they need a permanent home asap. Vet bills will be paid for by the estate's trustee.
Nettie is red and 11 years old. She loves to be by your side. Yuppie, the black one is 16 and doesn't see well at night but she gets around fine using her nose. She is on Proin for bladder control (not an expensive med).

Florida: Tucker
Tucker is a neutered orange and white male, has been a beloved family pet for most of his 10 years. However, due to some tragic circumstances, he has lost 2 of his family members, one has moved away and he now lives just with mom. But mom has to work during the day and, for the first time, Tucker is alone. He howls and cries until his owner's return and she is heartbroken that she can not spend more time with him. She still takes him along for her daily bike ride and he loves to run alongside her. |
Otherwise, Tucker is a VERY good dog, completely housebroken and healthy. He does get flea dermatitis if Frontline isn't applied regualrly and he is due for a vet check which may have to be done by his new owner.
Tucker loves to ride in the car although he will pull on a leash when walked. He is a typical "Velcro" English Cocker. He loves people and was especially bonded to his male owner. He likes some dogs, especially Bichons for some reason, but he is not good around cats. He is best placed in a home without small children although occasional small visitors are fine.
