Cockers & Friends, Incorporated's adoption process
Additional adoption info
Once a potential adopter meets and identifies a dog he would like to adopt, he must complete an adoption applicaiton. If the application is approved, a home check is performed to ensure the home/family and dog are compatible. If the adoption is approved, the adopter completes an adoption contract and pays a $300 adoption fee. Once the dog is placed in the home, the adopter must take the dog to his own vet within 1 week. At the conclusion of a 2 week trial period, the adoption is marked "final."

About Cockers & Friends, Incorporated
Our mission is to provide rescue, rehabilitation, counseling, transitional placement and supporting services for Spaniels & mixed breed dogs, while promoting a positive and professional rescue image through employing best practices used by successful businesses.
We offer a variety of services to meet the needs of an existing or potential dog owner. Our goal is to keep dogs from ending up in shelters. We provide temporary and long term fostering for people facing difficult situations that will allow them to keep their pets (military deployments, domestic abuse, owner illness, loss of home to foreclosure/fire/other disaster). We raise funds for the rescue by providing boarding services in our foster homes for dogs whose owners do not want them to be kenneled.
We also provide traditional rescue services for spaniels and spaniel mixes.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?
Why should you adopt?
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.
What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?
When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.
So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
