Valentine has been spayed, microchipped, is up-to-date on all shots, and has tested negative for heartworm.

UPDATE: A BIG THANK YOU TO SHANNON OF BAY RIDGE, BROOKLYN, FOR OFFERING VINTAGE A SAFE AND LOVING FOSTER HOME! BIO: Attention collectors of all things VINTAGE!! Whether your passion is wine or antiques, you are sure to fall in love with this limited edition! Our sweet Vintage is an 8-9 year old pale blonde Cocker Spaniel with a story for the ages. You'll have to use your imagination, though, as only she knows the full tale. Vintage came to us from the Brooklyn Shelter, where she had been turned in as a badly neglected stray with severely infected ears. We've now polished her up with grooming, dentistry, and treated her ear infections. She has also been spayed, microchipped, received all of her shots and and tested negative for heartworm. However, we know enough about vintage collectibles to leave the rest alone, as the true beauty of an antique is its patina. True, our Vintage has a few dings here and there, but these are all a part of her history and make her unique. Like all precious heirlooms, Vintage longs to stay in the family forever. If you would like to offer Vintage a foster home or, better still, a forever home to call her own, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. Vintage is waiting to become a part of your forever collection! 
Christmas Carol is a Cocker/Retriever cross who was recently found wandering alone in a rural upstate area. The good samaritan who found her believes Christmas Carol to have been dumped along the rural stretch of roadside where she picked her up.

She is a very calm and sweet-natured girl who loves the company of people and gets along well with other dogs. Christmas Carol has been spayed, microchipped, is up-to-date on all shots, has tested negative for heartworm, and even been treated to a dental.

He will shower you with kisses and fill your life with warmth and joy! Cupid has been fully vaccinated, neutered, microchipped, and has tested negative for heartworm.

Cupid is waiting to blow a kiss your way. 
NO MORE APPLICATIONS FOR VERSACE, PLEASE!! WE HAVE BEEN INUNDATED WITH EXPRESSIONS OF SUPPORT FOR THIS LITTLE GUY. THANK YOU, EVERYONE, FOR YOUR KINDNESS TOWARDS HIM. IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A TAX-DEDUCTIBLE CONTRIBUTION TOWARDS HIS MEDICAL CARE, PLEASE SEND TO THE FOLLOWING PAYPAL ADDRESS: DONATION@NYABANDONEDANGELS.COM (PLEASE SPECIFY "FOR GIANNI" IN THE PAYPAL MESSAGE BOX). WITH HEARTFELT THANKS FROM ALL OF US. BIO: Gianni Versace is an 8 month old Jack Russell/Italian Greyhound mixed breed puppy who came to us from the Brooklyn Shelter. We intended to take in his sister Donatella as well, but upon arriving at the shelter this morning (1/7/10), we were informed that she had died just an hour beforehand. These poor dogs were brought to ACC by a monstrous couple who claimed that they could not afford to feed them - from their emaciated condition, that could not be more clear. Before surrendering them, however, they obviously waited until they were on the brink of death. Animal cruelty charges are now being pursued and rightfully so. Even if they were catwalk models, Vogue magazine would surely have labeled these poor pups far too thin for a fashion shoot. The survivor, Gianni, is now on emergency IV fluids at our vet's office. Once he is strong enough, he will need to be fed three times per day. We pray that he has not sustained organ damage as a result of starvation and that he will recover. It will be at least a month before he is strong enough to begin a bittersweet new life without his sister, Donatella, with whom he was deeply bonded. Our heart just breaks for him, as well as for poor Donatella, who came so close to being saved. Despite his neglectful beginning, Gianni is a very loving, playful puppy who is trusting of people and friendly towards other dogs. Gianni will be neutered, microchipped, fully vaccinated, and tested for heartworm before adoption. He will also be professionally groomed and will go home with a new leash and collar. If you agree that a dog should look like more than a clothes-hanger and would like to provide Gianni with a loving home in which to continue his recovery, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. Gianni believes that full-figured fashion is the order of the day - and would like another cookie to prove it. 
Squeeker is a beautiful 7 year old black female Cocker Spaniel with white markings on her chest who came into the Staten Island shelter as an owner surrender. Her family was moving and there was no longer any room in their lives for poor Squeek or her sister Truffles (listed separately on petfinder). Squeek has an excellent temperament, so while somewhat neglected, she clearly was not abused. Now that she has been treated to a professional grooming as well as dentistry, she is all ready to go! Squeek has been spayed, microchipped, is up-to-date on all shots, and has tested negative for heartworm. If you would like to adopt Squeeker, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. This little angel is sure to squeak her way right into your heart. 
Kylie is a very petite sable female Cocker Spaniel just 3 years old. She's rather upset right now, having been bounced between a few homes before someone did the sensible thing and surrendered her to rescue. Kylie was a pet store purchase by someone who intended to breed her but (thankfully) never got around to it. Kylie has not had a great deal of stability in her life thus far, so would do best in a quiet environment where she can be given the opportunity to bond and feel secure. She definitely needs adult only placement in a low-key household and would likely do best as an only pet. Kylie has now been spayed, microchipped, is up-to-date on all shots, and has tested negative for heartworm. She will be professionally groomed before adoption and will go home with a new leash and collar. If you would like to adopt Kylie, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. Kylie is ready to take some baby steps towards reaching her full potential. 
Jagger is a very handsome 1 year old parti-colored Cocker Spaniel with striking black and white markings. Jagger is being surrendered to rescue by his family as they have insufficient time to devote to his training. He is spending too much time crated and has come to hate his crate. At most, Jagger should be gated in a kitchen area going forward. Jagger would do best with an experienced cocker spaniel owner who works from home or otherwise has a lot of time to devote to him. He can be a little stubborn, so needs an alpha-type owner to provide gentle discipline and lots of structure. We are inclined to think that Jagger would do best in an adult only household where someone can really focus on helping him reach his full potential. He is a beautiful dog with a wonderful spirit whose energy simply needs to be chanelled in a positive way. Jagger has been neutered, microchipped, is up-to-date on all shots, and has tested negative for heartworm. He will be professionally groomed before adoption and will go home with a new leash and collar. If you would like to adopt Jagger, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. Jagger is ready to rock 'n roll with you! Thumbelina is a small Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. She is approximately 2 years old. Just like her name-sake, she is a sweet little girl who just wants to find her true place in this big world. She does well with children, and other pets (both dogs, and cats). Thumbelina has been fully vaccinated, spayed, microchipped, and has tested negative for heartworm. She has been professionally groomed, and will go home with a new leash and collar. If this small girl has touched your heart in a big way, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application to adopt or foster her. Thank you! 
Tulah is a very sweet 6 year old buff and white female Cocker Spaniel who came into the Brooklyn Shelter as a stray. She is in good shape except for a slight cataract in one eye (the other is fine) and an ear infection, which is currently being addressed with medication. Tulah has a wonderful temperament, so could easily be placed in a home with children. She is great with other dogs and should be fine with cats. Tulah has been spayed, microchipped, is up-to-date on all shots, and has tested negative for heartworm. She has just been professionally groomed and will go home with a new leash and collar. If you are looking for your One True Love, then you need look no further than Tulah. Tulah would love to be home in time for Valentine's Day (and sends you a kiss in the meantime!) 
Attention all parents: the way to "teach the kids a lesson" is not to throw the family dog into the street. Extraordinarily, Josie's owner did just that when she sought to punish her children for having misbehaved. A friend of the family went looking for Josie and was overyjoyed to find her safe at the Brooklyn Shelter. Upon being contacted, Josie's owner informed Animal Control that her kids no longer deserved a pet and that Josie could not come home. Josie was therefore surrendered to rescue. As mom has obviously failed Parenting 101 (both for dogs and children), we wish that we could help the kids as well. Nevertheless, re-homing Josie is the best that we can do. Josie is an extremely sweet Cocker Spaniel just 2 years old who is at ease with children and friendly with other pets. She is very loving and will make the perfect snuggle bug. Josie has an adorable square face as well as a pink nose, which she will be sporting for Valentine's Day (a permanent feature, actually). What could be cuter? Josie has now been spayed, microchipped, is up-to-date on all shots, and has tested negative for heartworm. She has just been professionally groomed and will go home with a new leash and collar. If you would like to adopt Josie, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. Josie is ready to be your new forever friend. 
Maybelline is a very pretty buff and white female Cocker Spaniel just 2 years old. Maybelline was a stray who came to us from the Brooklyn Shelter. She is named for her beautiful thick eyelashes (one would think she's wearing mascara). Maybelline has an A+ temperament and would be trustworthy in a home with even the smallest of kids. There is nothing "Maybe" about our Maybelline ... dogs just do not come any sweeter than this! Maybelline gets along great with other pets - both dogs and cats - so could easily join a multiple pet household. Maybelline has been spayed, microchipped, is up-to-date on all shots, and has tested negative for heartworm. She has just enjoyed a professional grooming and will go home with a new leash and collar. To adopt Maybelline, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. If you are looking for "pretty without make-up" (both inside and out), then Maybelline is surely the dog for you. 
Striker, named for his strikingly good looks, is ready to meet you! This wonderful puppy is 5 months old, with an excellent temperament. He is up-to-date on his vaccines, neutered, microchipped, and has tested negative for heartworm. He has been professionally groomed, and will go home with a new leash and collar. In his previous home, Striker was given as a Christmas gift. The family could not devote the time and attention to a puppy, so he was surrendered to an animal shelter. Now, Striker is ready for a second chance at Christmas in February! If you would like to adopt Striker, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application 
UPDATE: A BIG THANK YOU TO CATHY AND FAMILY OF VALLEY STREAM, NY, FOR OFFERING JACK A SAFE AND LOVING FOSTER HOME!! Jack is a handsome 3 year old black and white Cocker Spaniel with a winning way about him. This adorable boy is all wags and wiggles! While Jack was dearly loved by his family, he found the toddler in his home quite irritating ... like most Cockers, Jack does not enjoy having his ears pulled, which the baby did not understand. In the end, Jack found himself at the Staten Island pound. Given his background, we are seeking an adult only household or a family with children over the age of 12 for Jack. Jack has been neutered, microchipped, is up-to-date on all shots, and has tested negative for heartworm. He has just enjoyed a professional grooming and will go home with a new leash and collar. If you would like to adopt Jack, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. In the meantime, Jack is sending both a Hug and a "Smak" your way! 
Suzie may be the world's best Jack Russell ... of course, it's not a breed we at Cocker Rescue particularly know, but we are completely smitten! Suzie came from Animal Care and Control in NYC, where she had been turned in as a stray. We can't imagine someone not going in search of such a loving dog (kisses galore). Suzie is full of playful personality and 100% housebroken. Who could ask for more?? Anyone looking for a wonderful family dog could not do better. Suzie has been spayed, microchipped, is up-to-date on all shots, and has tested negative for heartworm. If you would like to adopt Suzie, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. Suzie is sure to become your new best friend!! 
Byron is a handsome black and tan Cocker Spaniel just 2 years old who recently came to us from the Brooklyn Shelter. Byron has so much grace and elegance, he is like poetry in motion ... so of course he is named for a famous poet. Byron is a very sweet and loving dog who would do best in a low-key household. He is fearful of children, as we understand that he was mistreated by a child in a prior home. He may get over this with time, but for the time being we are recommending that he be placed in an adult only home or in a home with kids who are over 12 and dog savvy. Byron has been neutered, microchipped, is up-to-date on all shots, and has tested negative for heartworm. He has been professionally groomed and will go home with a new leash and collar. If you would like to read sonnets with Byron, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. Byron is waiting to hear from you! 
You may Wonder why anyone would name a pretty little female cocker Stevie ... unless of course you are a Stevie Wonder fan, in which case it all makes sense. Stevie is a 6 year old purebred cocker spaniel who was dumped at Animal Care and Control in Brooklyn by a family who seem to have provided her with zero care. Recurrent, untreated urinary tract infections had left her with two enormous bladder stones that were causing her tremendous pain. Not only was she blinded by untreated juvenile cataracts, but untreated ear infections had left her deaf as well. Now imagine the terror of a blind, deaf dog in terrible pain suddenly thrown in the city kill pound. She screamed louder than Tina Turner, live and uncut. No one could touch her even to provide a little comfort. Heartbreaking though it was, we had no option but to pull Stevie out kicking and screaming with fear, as leaving her to die would have been more heartbreaking still. Stevie has now had surgery to remove her bladder stones (or shall we say rocks), has been spayed, microchipped, fully vaccinated, and tested for heartworm. While we cannot repair her deafness, we are treating her infected ears, which are feeling much better. There is some small prospect of restoring sight to one of her eyes if we can eventually raise the funds, but for the time being it is best that other parts of her heal. We are happy to say that Stevie is now beginning to croon rather than scream. She is absolutely beloved at the vet clinic where she is continuing to recover. Now that she has her bearings, Stevie is allowed to run loose and play with the clinic staff. When they arrive in the mornings, as soon as she senses their footsteps, she comes running towards them with a wagging tail and a happy bark. Her transformation simply moves us to tears. Stevie would like very much to find a foster home or an adoptive home where she will be cherished despite her physical limitations (or even because of them). If you would like to rock and roll with Stevie, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. When you see how much love Stevie has to give, you won't Wonder for a second why she was saved. In fact, it was really high time that she received her just desserts. 
Twiggy is a super friendly, super special mix of Italian Greyhound and Fox Terrier. This long-legged, loving beauty is just 2 years old. Twiggy came to us from the Brooklyn Shelter, where she had been turned in as a stray. Twiggy will make a wonderful family dog - she loves to kiss and cuddle and should be trustworthy with kids. As she enjoys the company of other dogs, Twiggy could easily join a multiple pet household. Twiggy has been spayed, microchipped, is up-to-date on all shots, and has tested negative for heartworm. If you would like to adopt Twiggy, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. Twiggy is sure to bring some holiday cheer into your heart and home during this celebratory season! 
A BIG THANK YOU TO CATH AND FAMILY OF EDISON, NJ FOR OFFERING SELWYN A SAFE AND LOVING FOSTER HOME. BIO: Hello, my name is Selwyn. I am a 6 year old purebred Cocker Spaniel, all black with a hint of white on my chest. I am very active and playful and enjoy the company both of people and other pets. I should make an excellent family dog. I am being surrendered to rescue as my family has fallen upon hard economic times. They love me very much, but are now surviving on food stamps and public assistance. There is not much money to go around and they have been struggling just to buy my dog food. I was neutered as a puppy, so that's all taken care of, and rescue is now getting me current on all of my shots, as well as providing me with a heartworm test, a microchip and a professional grooming. I'll soon be all ready to go! If you are looking for a dog with excellent manners who is an all-around good boy, then I am surely the dog for you. If you would like to adopt me or provide me with a foster home while I am looking for a forever family, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. I'll be checking my inbox daily. Much love, Selwyn 
MICKEY IS NOT READY FOR ADOPTION AT THIS TIME. A BIG THANK YOU TO BONNIE OF DINGMANS FERRY, PA, FOR OFFERING MICKEY A SAFE AND LOVING FOSTER HOME. MICKEY IS ENJOYING LIFE AT "CAMP BONNIE" IN THE COMPANY OF BONNIE'S OTHER DOGS, BONNIE IS A GREAT FRIEND TO DOGS IN NEED AND ESPECIALLY TO ABANDONED ANGELS ... THANK YOU, BONNIE! BIO: Mickey is an adorable white Toy Poodle/Bichon cross about 1 year old. He is a little guy weighing only 8 pounds. Mickey is so small and delicate that he reminds us of a little white mouse ... drop a 5 lb bag of sugar on him and he might not survive! Life in the great big world has hardly been a Disney experience for this tiny dog. He was surrendered to the Manhattan shelter after having bitten a child. He showed no aggression either in the shelter or in our care, so we placed Mickey in an experienced, adult only poodle home, expecting him to flourish there. However, his adoptive family soon discovered that he is terrified of men. While he did well with his new Mom and was a big hit at her office, where he accompanied her daily, Mickey was returned to rescue after biting his new Dad badly. Sadly, both Mickey and his Dad were victims of the abuse that Mickey experienced in his past, the full extent of which we will never know. We are now looking for a "woman only" home for Mickey where men and kids are infrequent visitors. Mickey would likely do best with a single woman who has the time and patience to help a little dog overcome big fears. Experience with troubled animals is essential. Mickey is neutered, microchipped, up-to-date on all shots, and has tested negative for heartworm. He is even housebroken and will run to the door when he needs to go out. We would prefer to foster Mickey out initially to see how he fares in his next environment before formally adopting him into his next home. If you would like to offer Mickey a foster home, with a view to potentially adopting him in the future, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. 
All that glitters is not gold, unless of course your name is Glitter! Glitter is the latest sparkly princess to join our rescue. We believe her to be a Cocker Spaniel crossed with Corgi. At 19 pounds, she actually resembles a little fox, so is exceptionally adorable. Combine a herding breed with a water fowl dog and you get one smart dog! Glitter came to us from Brooklyn Animal Care and Control, where she had been turned in as a stray. Despite the stress of having been on the streets of New York City and the noise and chaos of the shelter environment, she nevertheless scored high marks on her shelter temperament test. Glitter has been spayed, microchipped, is up-to-date on all shots, and has tested negative for heartworm. If you would like to adopt Glitter, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. Glitter is waiting to become your new best friend! Bella Vista and Bella Vita are 7 month old female littermates. These adorable purebred Cocker Spaniel puppies came to us as owner surrenders via their breeder. Bella Vista and Bella Vita are typical puppies, happy, mischievous, loving, and playful. They could both use a bit of training, although we admit it is hard to say "no" to anyone so adorable. Bella Vista and Bella Vita are spayed, microchipped, up-to-date on all shots, and have tested negative for heartworm. They will be professionally groomed before adoption and will each go home with a new leash and collar. Bella Vista and Bella Vita would love to spend their lives together, but each is willing to go her separate way in the interests of finding the right family. If you would like to adopt one or both of these beautiful girls, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com. 
MANY THANKS TO THE REEVES FAMILY OF LARCHMONT, NY FOR OFFERING TONY AND HIS NEW FOSTER BROTHER FRISBEE A SAFE AND LOVING FOSTER HOME! Hello, my name is Tony. Whoever says that a slightly older dog is not worth adopting is full of Baloney! I am a handsome 8 year old purebred Cocker Spaniel. I am a beautiful deep rust color. I came into Rescue after having been found as a stray. I am still a little bit fearful (my nerves just could not take life on the streets) but I am finally starting to feel safe and much more like my old self. I am a chubby, happy-go-lucky boy who wants nothing more than to sink into a comfy sofa and watch TV with my special someone. Although I'm not much of an athlete, I enjoy going for walks. I love the autumn leaves and just can't wait to hear them crunching under my little feet. Fall is just my favorite time of year! Pumpkin pie and turkey, here I come!! Let's spend the upcoming holidays together! I am neutered, microchipped, up-to-date on all shots, and have tested negative for heartworm. I have just been professionally groomed and will go home with a new leash and collar. If you would like to help me live happily ever after, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. I'll be checking my email inbox daily! Love and Licks from your friend Tony XXOO 
A BIG THANK YOU TO MELISSA OF CONNECTICUT FOR OFFERING MISTLETOE A SAFE AND LOVING FOSTER HOME. BIO: Hello, my name is Mistletoe ... this Christmas season, I hope to enjoy chestnuts roasting by an open fire, with Jack Frost nipping at my nose. I am quite happy to let it snow ... as long as I have someplace warm and safe to go. My Christmas wish has not been representative of my recent experience, but I know that things can change in the bat of an eye. I had a home once, in my mind's eye I can see it still, but then one day, at the age of 14, I found myself on the streets of New York City. I was alone, it was cold and dark, and I could not find my way back home. My little heart was beating with fear (I have a heart murmur, you see, so I felt my sense of doom all that more acutely). I ran from street to street, from place to place, hungry and tired, too afraid to stop and rest. A kind passerby finally spotted me and called Manhattan ACC to come for me. Once at the shelter, I was placed in a cage with a blanket to warm my thin and weary body and given food and water. Then I began my wait. As the days slipped by, I wondered if I would ever see the familiar face of a beloved family member peeking into my cage, with tears of relief in their eyes at having finally found me. But this happy ending was not to be. I waited and waited, but no one came, until at long last I did see a kind but unknown face of a person who offered me a place in Rescue. I have a beautiful new name now, "Mistletoe," and I now await my new future. I wonder if, at my age, anyone will ever offer me the opportunity to be loved again. I long to lie at the feet of someone who will take the time to stroke my head and reassure me, as we soak in the scent of roasting chestnuts and the warmth of an evening fire. This is my dream for the twilight of my life. If you would like to offer me a foster home or, better still, an adoptive home to call my own, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. I am microchipped, up-to-date on all shots, have tested negative for heartworm, and will shortly be treated to a dental. As you can see, I am all ready to go home and become your fireside companion ... so let it snow, let it snow, let it snow, just as long as I, at long last, have a happy place to go. 
Fat Actress (otherwise known as Lady) is a curvaceous 8 year old Cocker Spaniel who came to us as an owner surrender. The colors in her coat remind us of a chocolate box: patches of caramel running through white chocolate. Fat Actress wishes she had been born in an era when curvy starlets were better appreciated. Back then, one Fat Actress equalled two of the Olsen Twins! Fat Actress has been wondering if her plump and feminine figure could be one reason why she has been offered so few roles lately. Although she has for the last few weeks been consulting Jenny Craig (and a new diet pal called Valerie) about developing a slimmer bod, what Fat Actress really needs to boost her self-esteem (as well as her metabolism) is a fabulous character part. Fat Actress is well-equipped to audition for a role in your family production, having been spayed, microchipped, fully vaccinated and tested for heartworm. If you would like to invite Fat Actress in to read for you, please contact Abandoned Angels to discuss her further. As her agent, we can tell you all the reasons why Fat Actress would be perfect for the role of "Snuggle Bug," for which she has been diligently rehearsing in any warm lap she can find. FAT ACTRESS WOULD LIKE TO INVITE THE FOLLOWING SPONSORS TO TAKE A BOW: Many thanks to Treena Horn for generously picking up the tab for some early vetting. And a big special thank you to Howard and Robert of Malverne, NY for providing our drama queen with a safe and loving foster home while she awaits her next big break! 
A BIG THANK YOU TO JOHN AND NANCY FOR OFFERING LITTLE MAX A SAFE AND LOVING FOSTER HOME IN UPSTATE NEW YORK! BIO: Little Max is a 15 pound Cockapoo who found himself surrendered to the Brooklyn Shelter at 12 years of age. If you too have seen your 401(k) go up in smoke, you may appreciate how Max felt ... this was hardly the gentle retirement he was expecting. Little Max was matted to the skin, in desperate need of dentistry, and also had a tumor on his abdomen. We were at the Shelter evaluating some Cocker Spaniels and, seeing what desperate straits he was in, felt unable to leave him behind. We figured that Rescue must somehow rally, even when financial markets don't. All of Little Max's medical needs have now been addressed (including his tumor, which has proven to be benign). Little Max is also receiving a daily dose of Cosequin for arthritis, and a little Soloxine to even out his thyroid levels. He has been neutered, microchipped, is up-to-date on all shots, and has tested negative for heartworm. Little Max now has a spring to his step and is clearly feeling bullish about the future. He believes that now is the time for the bear to sleep. If you would like to adopt Little Max, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. Although he agrees that we live in a confusing era, Little Max's inner wisdom draws optimism to the fore. He knows that, especially when there are no answers to life's troubling questions, the best immediate solution may be a nice good walk. 
UPDATE: UPDATE: BIG NEWS! Flipper has moved to a foster home in Maryland that he will be sharing with 8 other rescued Cocker Spaniels. Thank you Rhea and family! BIO: Flipper is a sweet, laid back cocker spaniel that loves his toys. He's a quiet cocker that likes to take his time toodling around the yard sniffing out squirrels and other critters. He is house trained and walks well on a leash. If left alone for long periods of time he is happy to go into his crate and take a snooze. He loves to go for walks and visit with people he meets along the way and he gets along well with other dogs, mostly ignoring them. He likes to be part of a cocker pile when its nap time but is also happy to be with his human -- and that is his definite preference. He follows his foster mom from room to room and if she stops to work on the computer, talk on the phone or cook a little something, he is close by watching to be sure she doesn't get too far away. Flipper has Cushing's, an adrenal gland problem, but it is well controlled with medication and he no longer has problems with excessive drinking and urination. He's lost a great deal of weight and feels and acts much younger than his years. Do not overlook the love Flipper has to share because of his age or Cushing's. Flipper is a wonderful, loving cocker spaniel that wants to share his life and love with someone special. 
What else to name an ultra-regal young water fowl dog but the Prince of Tides? Our Prince is a handsome 6 year old black and tan Cocker Spaniel who first passed through our rescue as a young boy from the Brooklyn pound. He was adopted out to a loving mother and daughter from Maine (his devoted mom and grandmom), both of whom spoiled him silly. He was so adored that this pauper Prince soon grew accustomed to living like a King! But then grandma died and, soon after, his mom fell ill. No longer able care for him, his mom returned Prince to rescue with a heavy heart. We have promised to find him another loving home. Prince is a very devoted dog who wants to be the center of his person's world. He is not always keen to share attention, so would likely be happiest as the only pet. Prince would also benefit from a strong leader to show him the way. After all, to become a wise Monarch, every Prince needs a High Counselor.

Meet Johnny, our "Johnny-Come-Lately" ... among the newest additions to our rescue! Johnny is a handsome 4-5 year old reddish buff Cocker Spaniel who came into the Manhattan Shelter as a stray. He is a very sweet and docile dog who is gradually coming out of his shell and showing his sunny nature. Johnny came to us quite thin, so may have been on the streets for a while.

My name is Solstice … I am a beautiful 4-5 year old reddish-buff Cocker Spaniel and am believed to have quite a lot of English Cocker in my line. Just as I am named for the astronomical phenomenon during which the sun appears to orbit around the Earth, my life is sure to orbit around you. I am a soulful dog, both loyal and true. After all the love I dedicated to my last family, I have no explanation for why they surrendered me to the Manhattan pound. As in the case of all unanswered questions, somewhere in the cosmos lies the truth, at least for now beyond our reach. I am a great believer in the ethereal – all those things we cannot see, smell, hear or touch but recognize through pure instinct. The moment we meet, I will know you are my owner, just as you will know that I have always been your dog. I am ready to join your life and have been spayed, microchipped, fully vaccinated, and tested for heartworm. I will be professionally groomed before adoption and will go home with a new leash and collar. If you would like to explore what the stars have in store for us, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. I am here waiting for you. 
Red Bandana is a handsome 4 year old red Cocker Spaniel who came into the Brooklyn Shelter as a stray. He was matted and filthy, so his first stop upon leaving Animal Control was our groomer's shop. He came out several hours later fluffy and clean and proudly sporting a red kerchief around his neck ... and has been known as "Red Bandana" ever since. Red is a very loving, friendly, playful dog who gets along well with everyone. He will make an excellent family pet. Red has been neutered, microchipped, is up-to-date on all shots, and has tested negative for heartworm. If you would like to adopt Red, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. Red has his Bandana packed and is all ready to go home! 
Here comes Reese ... our little chocolate spitfire! If you are looking for a "pick-me-up", then search no further. Reese is ready to go and has enough energy to keep a bunny hopping. He'd make a great dog for someone with lots of acreage or who wants a training buddy with whom to log in those early morning miles. He would do best in an adult only home or with an active family who enjoy the great outdoors. While very well-intentioned, he's a bit too exuberant to be placed with little kids. Reese has just been professionally groomed and will go home with a new leash and collar. He has been neutered, microchipped, is up-to-date on all shots, and has tested negative for heartworm. To adopt him, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. Having fallen in love with this handsome boy's photo, you will surely have no peace until you meet Reese! 
Honey Bee is a 3 year old female Cockapoo with a natural tail. This raven-haired beauty came from Animal Control in Brooklyn, where she had been turned in as a stray. Honey Bee is a sugar sweet, super friendly girl who should make an excellent family pet. She has been spayed, microchipped, is up-to-date on all shots, and has tested negative for heartworm. All that our Honey Bee now needs to make her life complete is a place called home. If you believe that home could be yours, please contact us to discuss her further. Honey Bee is sure to buzz her way straight into your heart! 
Aria is a 3-4 year old buff female Cocker Spaniel who came to us from the Brooklyn Shelter, where she had been turned in as a stray. This gorgeous girl reminds us of a beautiful melody - her every note is pitch perfect, so much so that Mozart, Brahms, Bethoveen and Bach would surely have been inspired. Aria gets along well with other pets and as well as kids, so should make a wonderful family pet. She has also been spayed, microchipped, is up-to-date on all shots, and has tested negative for heartworm. If you would like to make this little blonde soprano a member of your family, then please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. Aria is tired of being a solo artist and is ready to sing a duet with you!  
Look who's ready for the big screen and a playful character role ... it's our little comedian, Charlie Chaplin. Charlie is a 4 year old reddish buff Cocker Spaniel who came into the Manhattan shelter as a stray who went unclaimed. That quizzical look of his says it all ... who can say why such a wonderful dog failed to get the star treatment he deserves, ending up in the city kill pound instead. Charlie is a wonderful dog who gets along well with people (kids included) as well as other animals, so should make a wonderful family pet. Charlie has been neutered, microchipped, is up-to-date on all shots, and has tested negative for heartworm. He has just enjoyed a professional grooming and has also been treated to a dental. If you would like to adopt our little film star, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. There's no need to wait for your people to contact his people ... Charlie will be checking his inbox daily and will respond in person! 
We are all just dizzy for Disney! This handsome 12-18 month old red and white Cocker Spaniel (who may possibly have a bit of Cavalier King Charles in his line) came into the Brooklyn Shelter recently as an owner surrender. His family decided that the two cherry eyes impeding his vision were simply too costly to repair. As he was also very thin, we find ourselves wondering if his dog food bill was considered an extravagance too. Given all that he has been through, it is not surprising that Disney should be a bit of a shy boy. However, he warms up once given the opportunity to get his bearings and is docile and sweet with people as well as with other dogs. He could easily join a multiple pet household, either with or without kids. Disney has now been neutered, microchipped, has undergone cherry eye surgery, received all of his shots, and tested negative for heartworm. He will be professionally groomed before adoption and will go home with a new leash and collar. If you would like to welcome Disney as a permanent character within your magic kingdom, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. Disney is ready to begin a new fairytale life with you! 
Hello, my name is Davy and, to be honest, I'm a little confused right now. You see, I thought nothing of it when I was dropped off at the local groomer's for a make-over. After all, with Halloween around the corner, I wanted to look my best when neighborhood kids came to the door and had even been pondering what sort of costume to wear. I was torn between dressing up as Elvis or Superman and had spent a lot of time mulling the big decision over while under the big blow dryer. I had just about made up my mind to go with Elvis when I realized it was closing time and my owner had still not arrived. The groomer and I waited patiently, but as time went by, we realized that no one was coming for me. That's right, I was simply abandoned, all dressed up (at least in my mind) but with no place to go! When the groomer's attempts to locate my family failed, he held onto me for a few days (I stayed in the back, which was rather distressing), then contacted rescue to come for me. Rescue said they were only too happy to take me in, which was quite reassuring and dispelled my anxiety. I'd heard some disturbing whispers among the other dogs about my possibly being sent to the pound, which thankfully was just gossip. I am only about 9 months old, a typical playful puppy, and quite a happy boy. I believe I could make a new family happy if given half a chance (of course, after all of this drama, I'd prefer to be bathed at home, thank you very much). If you would like to bring me home for the upcoming holidays and help me choose a costume, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. At this point, I have quite mixed feelings about dressing up as Elvis and would appreciate some new ideas. I have been neutered, microchipped, am up-to-date on all shots, and have tested negative for heartworm. I'm all set to help you choose your annual pumpkin, too ... if you don't mind, though, I'd like an extra big one, as it's my very first Halloween, after all. 
Maks is a handsome 9 month old Cockapoo. This sweetheart of a pup was surrendered to rescue by his family when they discovered that puppies - while a lot of fun and games - also involve a lot of work! Maks is a fun-loving, active puppy who loves kids and other dogs, but does need an experienced dog owner to show him the ropes. Like most puppies, he needs some help with housebreaking and for some boundaries to be set where puppy antics are concerned. Maks responds well to guidance, though, and takes gentle correction in stride ... he is eager to learn and eager to please! Maks has been neutered, microchipped, is up-to-date on all shots, and has tested negative for heartworm. If you would like to adopt this little ball of fun (as well as mischief), please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. Maks is waiting to hear from you! 
Red Bull (fondly known as "Bully Bear") is a handsome red male Cocker Spaniel with beautiful blonde highlights. This good-looking boy is just 2 years old. Bully came to us from Brooklyn Animal Care and Control, where he was turned in as an owner surrender. While Bully is a very loyal and loving dog, his family's plans simply did not include him. We believe that Bully will do best in an adult only, experienced Cocker Spaniel home. He is sure to prove a very loyal companion. Bully has been neutered, microchipped, is up-to-date on all shots, and has tested negative for heartworm. Bully has just been professionally groomed and will go home with a new leash and collar. If you would like to adopt our Bully Bear, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. Bully is waiting to become your new best friend! 
Carelo is a handsome 4 year old red Cocker Spaniel who came to us from Brooklyn Animal Care and Control as a stray. While malnourished and suffering from a skin infection, Carelo was nevertheless all smiles. He is our "devil-may-care" boy, but is 100% angel. Carelo is an active dog who loves people and gets along well with other pets. He has been neutered, microchipped, is up-to-date on all shots, and has tested negative for heartworm. He will shortly be treated to a dental as well. While Carelo now has scarcely a "care-in-the-world", he is still looking for his forever family. If that family could be yours, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. Carelo has been looking high and lo for you! 
Louis Vuitton is a handsome puredbred Cocker Spaniel, 9-10 years old. He has an EXCEPTIONAL TEMPERAMENT and will make a wonderful family pet. Louis came to us from Manhattan Animal Care and Control, where he had been turned in as a stray. He had a large growth on his belly, which has now been removed, biopsied, and found to be benign. Louis loves to give kisses and has a demeanor so gentle that we would place him with an infant. He loves kids and gets along great with other pets, both dogs and cats. Louis has been neutered, microchipped, is up-to-date on all shots, and has tested negative for heartworm. He has just had full dentistry as well as a professional grooming, so is all ready to go! Although he is named after a famous designer, Louis Vuitton needs to land in the lap of love (the lap of luxury is not essential). If you are seeking one of life's treasures, then you need look no further than this sweet older dog's loyal and loving heart. To offer Louis a foster home or, better still, an adoptive home to call his own, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. Louis Vuitton is ready to be your newest life-long accessory. Like the little black dress, he's a timeless classic ... good for all occasions.  
Hello, my name is Legend. I am a handsome sable-merle Cocker Spaniel with gorgeous mocha and white markings. I am just 2 years old and a legend in my own time (the James Dean of Cockers)! I came into the Manhattan Shelter as a stray who went unclaimed. Given my gorgeous good looks, everyone was sure my family would come looking for me. But by the end of my stray time there was still no sign of them, so I was released to Rescue. I am a very friendly boy who gets along well with people and other pets, so I should make an excellent family dog. As my background is unknown, a family with kids 12 and up is recommended for me. I have been neutered, microchipped, am up-to-date on all shots, and have tested negative for heartworm. I will be professionally groomed before adoption and will go home with a new leash and collar. If you would like to adopt me, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. I am Legend ... and ready to make history with my new family!  
Dion is a handsome 2 year old chocolate Cockapoo with a super temperament. Dion recently came to us from Brooklyn Animal Care and Control, where he was turned in as an owner surrender. From Dion's condition, it was clear that his family simply had no time for him. He was infested with fleas and had obviously never been to a groomer, as he was matted to the skin. While he has a stunningly beautiful coat, sadly we could not save it, so he is sporting a summer crew cut for now. In this high heat and humidity, he seems to be finding his "new do" quite a relief. Dion is a very happy-to-lucky sort of dog who should make a good pet for a family looking for a hypoallergenic addition to the household (as a Cockapoo, Dion is "no shed"). He is quite playful, great with other dogs, and enjoys giving kisses. While he was awful for grooming, one can hardly blame him ... but once he establishes a relationship and regular routine with a professional groomer, we hope he will become de-sensitized to the clipper and blow dryer. On all other behavioral fronts, however, Dion gets high marks. He has now been neutered, microchipped, is up-to-date on all shots, and has tested negative for heartworm. If you would like to adopt Dion, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. Dion is ready to become your new best friend!  
Jeter is a handsome 7 month old red sable Cocker Spaniel with hazel eyes. Jeter came into the Brooklyn Shelter as a stray who went unclaimed. We are simply amazed that no one came looking, as Jeter is in every way a Home Run! This playful and affectionate puppy is full of fun and should make an excellent family pet. Jeter has been neutered, microchipped, is up-to-date on all shots, and has tested negative for heartworm. He has just enjoyed a professional grooming and will go home with a new leash and collar. If you are ready to invite Jeter into your Hall of Fame, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. Once you meet him, your heart will fly straight out of the ballpark. 
Kandy is a very pretty female Cocker Spaniel just 2 years old. She is a gorgeous buff girl with adorable white markings. Kandy was surrendered to Rescue when her family's life circumstances changed. She has always been a very pampered girl and is a well-adjusted pet. Kandy gets along well with all people, including kids. She has little experience with other dogs, so might or might not be receptive to joining a multiple pet household. Kandy has been spayed, microchipped, is up-to-date on all shots, and has tested negative for heartworm. She will be professionally groomed before adoption and will go home with a new leash and collar. If you have a sweet spot in your heart for Kandy, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. Kandy is waiting to hear from you! 
Tiara is a gorgeous 1-2 year old sable Cocker Spaniel who came into the Manhattan shelter as a stray. We were so stunned by how pretty she is that we immediately envisaged her wearing a crown of gemstones - and christened her Tiara. Sable Cocker Spaniels are very rare in rescue - we see maybe two or three a year - so it's always rather exciting when one of these mocha-colored beauties comes prancing in. Tiara has surely seen some hard times, though. She is quite shy with new people and requires a gentle approach before she is willing to be friends, a sure sign that she was mistreated in some way. She quickly forgets it all when one tempts her with a ball - after all, every princess needs her orb. Sadly, Tiara is developing a juvenile cataract in one eye, which we hope to have taken care of through a summer fundraiser. In the meantime, she has been spayed, microchipped, is up-to-date on all shots, and has tested negative for heartworm. Tiara is currently being treated for an ear infection, but will soon be right as "reign". She will be professionally groomed before adoption and will go home with a new leash and collar. If you would like to foster Tiara or, better still, provide her with an adoptive home to call her own, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. Tiara is sure to become your crowning glory!  
Have you ever been in so much trouble, you could have used the famous attorney, F. Lee Bailey, to bail you out? Well, it happened to me recently. I am a sad abuse case who recently arrived in Rescue quite emaciated (and this was after having been held in the Staten Island pound for several weeks, where I received regular meals). My rescuers remain quite horrified, as beneath my handsome red coat both my spine and ribs are showing. So you can imagine the condition I was in when I first arrived as an owner turn-in. My owners surrendered me claiming that I had bit their child. I don't remember what specifically triggered the incident, except that I was terribly hungry. The child may have had food in her hand or I might have smelled something very delicious on her breath. For what reason other than hunger would a dog with such a sweet nature, tail always wagging, resort to such extreme measures, especially in relation to a child he really loved? I was just so desperate to get something to eat that I simply lost my mind! F. Lee Bailey would no doubt call it a case of temporary insanity - which is just why I was released to Rescue and given another chance. Now that I am receiving three square meals a day (to build me up), I am back to being a very happy, wiggly boy. I am hoping that some kind person will be able to see my bite incident for what it was and to look beyond my tragic past. The first 8 years of my life may not have been the best, but Rescue believes my future to be bright - and promises me it will be filled with lots of snacks. If you would like to offer me a foster home or, better still, an adoptive home to call my own, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. All I need is a second chance! With love, Bailey 
Flash is a handsome 1 year old black cockapoo with white markings on his feet and chest who was recently surrendered to the Staten Island Shelter by his family due to lack of time. He has a very sweet nature and should make an excellent family pet. Flash has been neutered, microchipped, is up-to-date on all shots, and has tested negative for heartworm. He has been professionally groomed and will go home with a new leash and collar/ Flash will be gone in a flash, so don't delay ... please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application! 
My name is Woody. I am a 5-6 year old purebred Cocker Spaniel who was turned into the Manhattan Shelter as a stray. Like many a Cocker before me, I became scared and upset in the Shelter environment, with the result that I received a poor behavioral assessment. The truth is, I am just a very sensitive soul, and my frazzled nerves simply could not take the noise, fear, and confusion inherent in a shelter environment. Once I was labelled a difficult case, my adoption prospects were non-existent. I kept asking for someone to understand what I was going through and sympathize, but sadly no one would. Then I developed kennel cough and was slated for euthanasia. I thought I had met my end for sure when, suddenly, I was pulled back from the brink!! Thanks to Rescue, I am now safe and secure in a foster home, where I am finally showing my true colors. I am a very sweet dog with a gentle nature who gets along well with other pets. I have so far met some older kids and have behaved beautifully with them. I am currently overcoming kennel cough, following which I will be neutered, will have a tiny cherry eye repaired, and also receive a dental. In the meantime, I have received all of my shots and am current on my heartworm test. I will make a wonderful companion for someone who leads a low-key lifestyle and is looking for a quiet dog to love and cherish. If you would like to adopt me, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. I will be checking my email inbox daily. With lots of love in the meantime, Woody XXOO. 
Meet Remington Steele, the most debonaire of private eyes who also has a nose that knows. Remington was found as a stray in a rural upstate area and surrendered to rescue when his owners could not be found. He is a handsome red and white boy with a natural (undocked) tail that he loves to swish like a giant feather. Remington is a very happy, friendly boy who should do fine in a home with older, dog-experienced kids (he is a might too energetic for toddlers). He does beautifully with other dogs and would likely be fine with cats (but might chase initially, like any investigator in hot pursuit of a lead). Remington has been neutered, microchipped, is up-to-date on all shots, and has tested negative for heartworm. He will be professionally groomed before adoption and will go home with a new leash and collar. If you would like to play "I Spy" with Remington Steele, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. Remington is waiting to hear from you!  
Dex Dexter is a handsome 10 month old Cockalier (a Cavalier King Charles/Cocker Spaniel Cross). Dex is being surrendered to Rescue as he is becoming stressed by the children in his current home. While he is a very loving and playful dog, the activity level in the home is simply too high for Dex to take. In a lower key environment, however, Dex should do just great. If you can offer Dex a quiet, adult-only home, then he is ready to reward you with years of loyal companionship! Dex has been neutered, microchipped, is up-to-date on all shots, and has tested negative for heartworm. If you would like to adopt Dex, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. Dex is waiting to hear from you! 
UPDATE: CINDEE HAD HER MAKEOVER, WHAT A BEAUTIFUL GIRL SHE IS!  
 
Hello, my name is Peanut Butter ("Peanut" for short). I am a very small and petite female Cocker Spaniel weighing under 20 pounds. I am just 4 years old. I came into Rescue when my family decided that they no longer had room for me in their lives. As I am such a little Peanut of a dog, I really did not take up much space at all, so I am rather confused by their logic. At first I was very scared and nervous being in a new place, but I am starting to feel safe and beginning to make friends with all the other Cockers here. I am seeking an adult only home, ideally with prior Cocker Spaniel experience or experience with rescued dogs. With my own family I am very loyal loving, but with strangers I can be a bit fearful. I have been spayed, microchipped, am up-to-date on all shots, and have tested negative for heartworm. If you would like to adopt me, please email rescue@nyabandonedangels.com and request an application. Just as Peanut Butter is not complete without a slather of Jam or Jelly, I will not be complete until I find a home where I am truly loved. I will be checking my email daily awaiting news from my soulmate, who I just know is out there, looking for me.
