About Cocker Spaniel Resources
We are a public charity as described in IRS Exempt Organizations 501(c)3.
Our mission statement as a charitable organization is to provide quality services for rescue, rehabilitation, adoption, and/or retirement for cocker spaniels of all ages, regardless of health conditions, through placement in permanent homes, sanctuaries, and foster care programs.
Our goal is to receive 3 cockers or cocker mixes each month and to rehome them in fur-ever loving homes. This year of 2008, we have taken in 76 dogs, more than double our budgeted number of intakes.
We are a foster home based rescue, therefore we are always looking for new foster homes to qualify to care for our homeless cockers.
All of our dogs are spayed or neutered prior to adoption. We allow no exceptions. Our dogs are fully vetted prior to the adoption including teeth cleaning. Each dog has had flea and tick prevention applied and is on heartworm prevention medication.
According to insurance industry statistics, sixty percent of all dog bites occur to children under the age of 12, we encourage families with children over the age of 8 to apply for our rescue dogs. We do make acceptions, however on a case-by-case review.
Our adoption team reviews all applications prior to any dog being adopted. We only adopt to families in WI, MN and IA. We are registered to do business in WI and MN, and we pay sales taxes to each state on the dogs we adopt.
