Needing Homes

Jeff is an 8 year old lemon roan working type cocker. He has been a working gundog but now needs an active rural home as a pet. His owner is poorly and has moved to accommodation where he can't keep his dogs. Jeff will need to be house trained as he has lived in an outside kennel. He is a lovely friendly boy who has been well trained. During his journey to CAESSR, he cut his ear on the travel cage and needed stitches. He has also had his teeth cleaned. He is used to living with other dogs. We don't know if he has had contact with children or with cats.

Wilma is a 7 1/2 year old golden show type cocker. Her owner has an incurable cancer and is also looking after a grandchild in the daytime. Wilma is not used to babies and small children and is anxious and barks. Her owner cannot cope with the situation and Wilma needs someone who can give the attention that she deserves. She is used to other dogs but has no cat experience. She walks well on a harness and she will come back for treats when off-lead. She is a perfect traveller and can be left for short periods. Wilma has dry eye in both eyes and needs Optimmune drops twice daily. Her owner will contribute the cost to CAESSR so that CAESSR can pay for the medication.

Halle is a 2 year old liver & white show type springer spaniel. She needs a new home due to a change in family circumstances. She hasn't really had any contact with children. She is used to living with other dogs but has no cat experience. Halle is used to walking on a lead but hasn't been taught to walk to heel. Her recall is good but she can suffer with "selective deafness" if there is something to investigate. She is house trained and sleeps in the utility room in winter and in an outside kennel in summer. She travels well in the car. Halle can be left for an hour or two but has always had other dogs for company.

Scarlett is a 2 year old liver & white show type springer spaniel. She needs a new home due to a change in family circumstances. She hasn't really had any contact with children. She is used to living with other dogs but has no cat experience. Scarlett is used to walking on a lead but hasn't been taught to walk to heel. Her recall is good but she can suffer with "selective deafness" if there is something to investigate. She is house trained and sleeps in the utility room in winter and in an outside kennel in summer.

Molly is a 5 year old small black show type cocker. She was handed in at a local vets as she was found wandering alone. Her owner was traced and the vet was told that she was no longer wanted by the owner as he was unable to look after her. The vets groomed her as her coat was in a bad state and she has been vaccinated and health checked. Initially Molly was very frightened but she has settled in with CAESSR and seems to be a lovely dog.

Molly displayed fear when visiting our vet. She needed to be muzzled so that the vet could check her ears, eyes & teeth. We are not sure whether she is spayed. We are looking for an experienced home fairly close to our base so that she can return to our vet to be spayed if required.

Stanley is a 17 month old golden cocker. He is possibly part show type and part working type. His family are not able to give him enough time as work load has increased and they have a busy family life. He doesn't like being on his own for long periods of time. Stanley is good with the children. He loves to play with other dogs. He lives with two cats but he chases them and is probably best homed without cats. He pulls on the lead and is sometimes walked using a harness. He comes back to call when off lead most of the time. He travels well in the car. Stanley is living with the owner's Mum at present and has been sleeping upstairs. He is becoming a little protective of Nanny when people come to the door.
