Midas

Cocker Spaniel

Male, Senior
Riverdale, GA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Due to recent health issues, my wife and I can no longer provide the care Midas deserves, so we are seeking a loving home for him. Midas is a 13-year-old Cocker Spaniel who is quiet, gentle, and gets along well with others. He is not an alert dog and does not bark at the doorbell. He does best in a calm, peaceful home. Midas is house trained and well behaved. During the week, he stays in his kennel with no issues as long as he is fed and let out before you leave. When we are home, he quietly walks around the den. When he needs to go outside, he will trot to the door or circle nearby. With regular let-outs, he has no accidents. Midas is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and his medical records are available at Snapfinger Creek Animal Hospital. He occasionally has yeast ear infections, which are common in older Cocker Spaniels and manageable with routine care. Midas would be a wonderful companion for someone looking for a gentle, low-key senior dog.
