Story
## Pet's Story This handsome Cocker Spaniel turned one year old this June. He has a great, balanced personality—he definitely likes to play with his toys, but he also has a lazy side and loves to just lounge around . He is incredibly sweet-natured, peaceful, and doesn't have a mean bone in his body. He is very friendly with strangers and greets everyone he meets with a wagging tail. He is looking for a loving home that can give him a good mix of playtime, daily walks, and plenty of couch time for cuddles. He will make a wonderful, gentle companion for a lucky family.

Frosty loves to have a companion, whether human or canine.  He is happy and well mannered walking politely on a leash, is easy to bathe, rides well in the car and is house trained. He doesn't like to be left behind. Born in December of 2019, Frosty weighs 60 lbs. He likes female dogs of all sizes and plays well with his doggy buddies. But dogs, as great as they are, can't fully replace the attention of a person. So, if you want a handsome, loving, companion for you (and your dog), he is perfect! You couldn't ask for more love and loyalty than what Frosty has to offer. So, welcome this boy into your home and into your heart. If you do, he will love you forever! ##1234936##
