Located in Temecula, CA Jesse came to us as a stray from a shelter in the LA area. He is about 3 years old and we suspect he is a sprocker(cocker/springer mix). He was very afraid of his world when he arrived. He has been working with a trainer for many months as we fully believed in him and that he deserved a chance at a good life. His trainer has done wonders with Jesse and says he is a great dog.. Jesse will make a great hiking buddy and ball fetching companion. Yet he also enjoys just hanging out and chilling in the house. Jesse does have a prey drive so cats or other small animals in the house are a no. Jesse would do best in an adult only home or with teenagers that fully understand dog etiquette. He can live with a female dog that respects his space. He is about 35 pounds, up to date on his vaccinations and has a clean bill of health. Jesse is leash trained and house trained. Jesse will thrive in a home where he gets mental and physical stimulation, and a commitment to follow the transition plan from the trainer. There are two aftercare lessons included with Jesse's training program; one in-home and one at the facility that are required for Jesse to be successful. If you are interested in Jesse, please complete the CA adoption application. https://www.springerspanielrescue.org/adoption-process

Meet Brownie! A spirited four-and-a-half-year-old Cocker Spaniel/Siberian Husky mix from Los Angeles, CA, whose essence is a gentle blend of softness, playfulness, and a uniquely independent soul, all wrapped in a handsome tricolor coat. Brownie is the kind of pup who thrives in the company of someone who gets him—someone who understands that love sometimes looks like quiet companionship, not constant cuddles. Though he may be timid at first, once you earn his trust, you'll discover a loyal friend who sticks close and listens better than most humans. He knows an impressive list of commands—from "sit" to "patita"—and even perks up when you ask if he wants to go outside or for a walk. And yes, he’ll tilt his head adorably every time! This 40-pound adventurer is a natural explorer—he loves hiking, swimming, running, and even a good old-fashioned wrestling match with an oven mitt. Squeaky toys and tennis balls? Absolutely! Brownie is up for a game of catch, especially if you’re cheering him on. He enjoys being outdoors and feels more at ease in peaceful settings where the energy is calm and steady. Bath time and grooming? Well, let’s just say Brownie has his opinions. He’s not a fan of too much fuss, so a patient hand and positive reinforcement go a long way. He may not be the type to curl up in your lap, but he’s happiest lying at your feet, sleeping when you sleep, and watching the world go by with his soulful eyes. Brownie gets along well with cats and tends to be shy, though non-aggressive, around other dogs. He does best with a fenced yard, where he can roam safely and enjoy the breeze. He barks at strangers and howls at sirens, which just might make him your built-in neighborhood watch. With his sweet spirit, strong personality, and deep desire for a gentle, consistent routine, Brownie needs a family that can offer patience, understanding, and a calm environment to help him continue to blossom. Could your home be the place where Brownie’s next adventure begins? If you think Brownie might be your perfect hiking buddy and soulful sidekick, reach out to adopt@joyfulpets.com! What special place could you and Brownie explore together next?

Barnabus is an amazing pup with a huge love for fetch—give him a ball, and he’s the happiest dog in the world! He’s looking for a gentle and patient adopter who will let him take his time to build trust. Barnabus thrives in a calm environment where he’s spoken to with kindness and allowed to come to you on his own terms. Once he feels secure, his sweet and loyal personality truly shines. While he’s not a fan of constant cuddles right away, Barnabus warms up beautifully with stability and love. He enjoys quiet walks, watching the world go by, and engaging with the people around him. He’s great with kids, other animals, and people, making him a wonderful companion in the right home. Barnabus does have a quirky growl, but don’t be alarmed—it’s his way of asking for attention, especially when he wants to play! He’s been misunderstood in the past, but in the right hands, he’ll flourish into the perfect, devoted best friend. If you’re ready to offer Barnabus the care, understanding, and love he deserves, he’s ready to meet you! Fill out an application today to bring this playful and protective boy into your life.

HERSHEY'S story, since the day of his rescue, has captured the hearts of hundreds of loving fans on Facebook and other social media! Rescued as a hit-by-car dog with rear leg paralysis, he required spinal surgery, followed by months of specially targeted post-op therapies. He has recovered beautifully, and is now available for adoption! Thank you Hershey fans for supporting this "You Can Do Hard Things" boy! ❤️ >> FOR HERSHEY'S MOST CURRENT STATUS - availability, updates, photos, and videos - follow him at www.campcocker.com/hershey and Facebook & Instagram. #CampCockerHershey HERSHEY IS BEING FOSTERED IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA >> HERSHEY is: Affectionate, playful, smart, brave, curious, eager to please, leash-trained, house-trained, and loves toys. *Once he gets to know you* he’s also a lap dog & snuggle-bug, loves kisses (we call them Hershey's kisses!) >> TO SET HERSHEY UP TO THRIVE, STAY HEALTHY, AND BE THE BEST COMPANION EVER, HE WILL HAVE SOME SPECIAL NEEDS TO BE MET BY HIS FUTURE ADOPTERS: - Hershey will always have IVDD (Intervertebral Disc Disease) and will always be prone to re-injury. This will require an environment that will help to prevent activities that could lead to re-injury. - It will never be safe for Hershey to have access to stairways, or to furniture or beds that he can jump on or off. - Though he might enjoy the company of another dog, it's important that he not be subject to jumping, wrestling, and engaging in active play with other dogs. - Since he’s not a fan of loud or unexpected noises or interactions, Hershey should be in a quiet home with no children, and probably no cats. He interacts well with other dogs, but it will be best for him to be in a home without other dogs due to his specific environmental requirements. - Hershey's ideal home will be a house with a yard, in a quiet neighborhood. >> Before submitting your application, PLEASE VISIT HERSHEY'S WEB PAGE TO READ HIS *ENTIRE* BIO and learn about his history, his needs - and how Camp Cocker can help!

ELSA IS BEING FOSTERED IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA ELSA'S STORY: Elsa is a beautiful adult female Cocker Spaniel. Presumed to be a hit-by-car dog, she was rescued from the LA County Carson Shelter on 1/11/24, and taken directly to the VCA in anticipation of orthopedic surgery. Elsa was picked up by animal control with duct tape wrapped around a fractured leg. :( The shelter sent her to an outside vet for x-rays and removal of the duct-taped bandages, which were replaced with a soft cast while she awaited further treatment. Elsa saw a surgical specialist who repaired her radial ulna fracture, and she is now receiving post-op therapy in her foster home with Hershey & Violet. Elsa has been sweet and friendly with her foster siblings - as well as her care providers. What a good girl! Her age estimate* is about 7-9 years old, and she weighs about 22 pounds. Elsa exhibits some stranger danger (being disturbed by, and barking at people on the street, people she doesn't know) and also has separation anxiety. She'll need some focused training with a force-free trainer to help her with these issues. Don't miss the video of Elsa on her first pack walk in the park with her foster siblings Hershey and Violet (in her wheels)! *Please note that any age provided is only an estimate, based on veterinary examination. >> APPLY TO ADOPT ELSA at Camp Cocker Rescue: www.campcocker.com/elsa ELSA IS BEING FOSTERED IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA Be sure to check out other available dogs at www.campcocker.com/available-dogs THANK YOU FOR GIVING RESCUE & SHELTER DOGS A CHANCE!

Hi, I am Max. I was adopted from South LA animal shelter March 2024. I am about 2yo. I overcame trauma, still a bit shy. I am potty & house trained. When I first arrived to my current home I did not know how to live inside. I already went through the chewing your shoes phase. I like my toys better ;) My human has unexpected life changes, she works a full time job and manages going to law school. The reason why she brought me home was because she saw another dog peeing on me. She said I looked orange/yellow and smelled like a skunk for days! But after several washes and grooms I am pearly white with my brown spots. I am a very calm pup when I’m inside but very playful when I’m outside playing with friends. I love to cuddle and be smothered. I’m very affectionate. I am looking for a new home although my human doesn’t want me to leave but I know she’s doing what is best for me. I would love to live in a home with another playful pup who wouldn’t mind sharing with me.

Nala is a 7 year old cocker spaniel who will be turning 8 in December. She was my grandparents dog who recently passed away a month a part from each other. She is used to being in a single dog home, but is ok with other dogs. She is not used to sharing her toys and food, and she is currently homed in a house with other dogs but it has been a big adjustment. She is crate trained and loves to be in her crate. She is house trained to go outside into a backyard, but can be walked on a leash. She loves to be inside sleeping on a bed, and doesnt like to go on long walks. Her front right paw does have a deformity so long walks can cause it to hurt. We hope she can be adopted by a home that has no other dogs or older dogs who will respect her space. We also hope she will go to a home that will love her and give her all of the attention she needs. She lost both of her owners in an extremely short time which has been very sad for a very sweet dog. We would keep her but we unfortunately cannot
