Picture a sweet Southern “meemaw” sitting in her rocking chair on the front porch, sipping iced tea, knitting, and declaring, “Well bless your heart!” while watching neighbor’s antics. That describes sweet Dolly, a 14 yo cocker spaniel. She was beloved by her owner from the time she was a puppy until the owner’s death.
The family did not want to keep her, so God’s Dogs Rescue stepped in to give this precious dog a soft place to land during her golden years. Her matted fur was shaved, giving her an amazing glow up. She was started on appropriate medications, and showered with love.
Dolly is a bit hard of hearing, sleeps a lot, takes her meals very seriously, enjoys sitting/napping in the sunshine, being brushed & petted. Are you willing to welcome this sweetheart into your home to spoil? Local adoption fee is $200(in TX)Out of state adoption fee is $450 (includes transport to your area)

Something to Consider:
Puppies don't train themselves
If you aren’t willing to train a puppy every single day, don’t get a puppy! It isn’t a one-shot deal. You have to be dedicated. And if you aren’t making progress – find someone who can help. Enroll in a puppy training class or hire a trainer. Most cities across the nation have some sort of availability for this kind of help and at different cost levels that would fit your budget.
Puppies are going to poop a lot and pee even more; chew on everything; bite everyone; scratch people and furniture; steal things; destroy something at some point; pull on the leash; not move at all on the leash; bark; cry; beg for attention; and the list goes on. You’re going to have to walk them, bathe them, pick up everything below waist height, buy new shoes, and most importantly: TRAIN THE PUPPY NOT TO DO THESE THINGS! Ultimately, it is your responsibility to teach your puppy that this behavior is unacceptable.
Puppies turn into dogs...
