I have permission to post this:
Rocky the cocker is now looking for a new home. Rocky is a 6-year-old blue roan cocker who badly needs a new sofa to call home. Poor lad, his dad died over a week ago and the rest of the family can't cope with a dog (because of their various disabilities). He was obviously the centre of the bloke’s life and was probably very spoilt, and is competing well with my 2 hooligans.
He loves his walks and loves cuddles even more. He comes with his own bed but he’d rather be with you on the sofa than in his bed (in fact while he’s been here Ed the cat and Wilf and Ruby have slept in his bed but not Rocky!). He’s your typical cheeky, strong-willed cocker who when he 1st meets strangers is a little shy with them but he doesn’t take long to get used to them. Gets on well with other dogs but a little scared if too many are bouncing around him. It’s a bit like having a big cuddly bear sitting around the house sometimes—often he just sits there on the sofa grumbling a way at nothing in particular like some big old bear! He’s ignored my cats most of the time he’s been here. Has met numerous kids but don’t think he’d be really suitable for a home with young kids as he hates a lot of screaming around and the general excitability that comes with kids.
Rocky is going to be neutered this week (probably this Wednesday) and generally checked out but he appears to be quite a fit dog (I’ve wormed him and his boosters are due sometime in September—vax certificate came with him). However he does have a cataract in one eye (limited vision or none) but it won’t spoil his enjoyment for life.
Rocky is already microchipped and I have the documents so whoever rehomes him can transfer him over to them.
Rocky is being fostered by me in South Wales on behalf of Hereford and Worcester Animal Rescue, and any prospective owners will be homechecked, sign an adoption agreement and pay an adoption fee. Will rehome anywhere in the UK. For any other details PM/email me.
