Story
If you are interested in adopting or fostering this dog. Please visit our website - www.cockeradoptions.org   There, you will find the current status of the dog, the links to our adoption and foster applications, and detailed information about our adopting and fostering procedures.   ADOPTED! ADOPTED! ADOPTED! ADOPTED! ADOPTED! ADOPTED! ADOPTED! MY ORIGINAL INTAKE INFORMATION: Hello, my name is Maggie. When I was first adopted, I was a puppy mill pup. I went to a quiet home with 2 adults. Overtime, more people moved into my home including 4 young children. I was not ready to live with children, and they scared me so my former owner asked CSAC to help find me a new home. The best home for me has people who have dog experience who can help with my training and acclimating to the outside world. The people in my new home should be able to teach me the skills I need to be a great pet: walking on a lead, house training, and socializing. I will need time to trust people who want what is best for me. Right now, I am in the caring hands of one of the great Vets that work with the CSAC. They are checking me out and making sure I am healthy. Hopefully, I will find my new family that will turn me into a happy, cherished family pet again. Hope to see you soon. For more information about this dog, email our Adoption Coordinator. Our adoption process starts with an application. If you are interested in adopting this pup, please click the Adopt menu at the top of the screen, read about our process, and click the application link. The medical and custodial care of the many Cockers in our care is tremendous. More and more dogs are abandoned with urgent and serious medical issues. We are committed to providing the best possible care for these forgotten friends. Unfortunately, the mounting high costs are beginning to limit the number of dogs we are able to take into our program. Even if you cannot adopt or foster one of our current adoptable dogs, please consider making a donation. The Cocker Spaniel Adoption Center is a 501(c)(3) non-profit charitable organization, and your donations are entirely tax deductible. Click the Donate menu at the top of the screen.

Story
Meet Snoopy — the little Shih Tzu with a big heart and an even bigger zest for life!At just 4 years old and 14 pounds, Snoopy has already had quite the journey. His previous family took him in when friends were being evicted, hoping they could find him a safe and loving home. They tried their best, but when they couldn’t place him, they brought him to us so he’d finally get the chance he deserves.When Snoopy arrived, he needed some routine care — so he’s now neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, tested for tick-borne illnesses, and started on his flea/tick and heartworm preventatives. He’s all set for a fresh start!Snoopy is an affectionate, high-energy little guy who loves to play, especially with stuffie toys. He enjoys older kids and other dogs, and he’ll tolerate cats as long as they respect his space. He’s a bit anxious in new situations and can still have the occasional accident in the house, so patience and reassurance will go a long way with him.Because he worries that someone might take his food, children in the home need to understand not to disturb him when he`s eating meals or snacks. Snoopy could use some help with leash training, but he’d absolutely thrive with a fenced yard where he can run, play, and get out the wiggles.At the end of the day, Snoopy is a cuddle bug who just wants to be loved. If you`re looking for a playful, loyal, and snuggly companion who will make you laugh and keep you on your toes, Snoopy is ready to meet you.This sweet boy has been waiting a long time for his happy ending — could it be with you?
