We do allow out of area adoptions as long as we have a fellow "rescuer" to buddy your dog should something go wrong.

4. How do you raise money to take care of the dogs?
Cocker Spaniel Rescue relies on donations of food from vendors and monetary donations from the adoptions.
We are not a 'non profit" organization (yet) but all money received is kept only for the dogs.

We now have a FIRM policy in place where we do not adopt our dogs out to home with children under age 10.
