Bluey

Meet Bluey! He’s one handsome Cocker Spaniel boy that has joined Camp Cocker Rescue to find his new home.

Bluey needs another confident dog in the home to teach him the ways of the world. He also needs to be in an adults-only home to manage his escape risk.

Notes from Bluey & his foster mom:

Hello, my name is Bluey 😎 🐾

Yes, that Bluey – the handsome boy with the dreamy brown eyes. Try not to fall in love too fast. Actually, never mind, go ahead!

If you’re thinking about adopting me. Let me tell you why I’m basically the total package – with a little extra personality sprinkled in.

First of all, bedtime? I am a professional cuddler. Im 16 pounds full of adorableness. I will gently curl up and tuck my nose and head into your chest, let out one dramatic big sigh (because being this cute is exhausting), and fall asleep in your arms like I pay rent there.

Routine is my game and the goal for success in your home.

I’m currently working on gaining a little weight, and guess what – I’ve gained a pound, yayyy! Let me just say… my foster mom hooked me UP with food from JUST FOOD FOR DOGS. When she says, “Are you hungry?” I lose all composure. Full body wiggle. Lip licking. Pure joy. It’s a whole performance.

Playtime? Oh, I’m FUN fun. Throw a toy – I’ll bring it back like a champion. But when you reach for it? Haha… not so fast. We must first engage in a brief but very serious game of tug. I will growl (for dramatic effect), pull with determination, and then, fine you may have it back. I also share my toys with other dogs in the house. I need to be fed separately from other dogs because I don’t want to worry about other dogs stealing my food. I growl but don’t bite.

Potty training? I’ve been watching my foster brother, and following his lead, and I’ve got it down. If I need to go out at night, I gently tap the closed bedroom door until I get my foster mom’s attention to wake up and take me out. Of course, when I move into my new home, with a new routine, I may regress just a little, but I’ know I’ll get the hang of it.

I’ll be honest, I can be a little shy in new places. Big new world, tiny brave me. I’d love a confident dog buddy to show me the ropes, kind of like a life coach, but fluffier.

Walks are my thing though. I stroll like a gentleman. No pulling, just sniffing grass, appreciating the sun and the trees, living my best peaceful life. Stores and noisy places? Still a work in progress.

The vet? Okay… we don’t talk about the vet. But when you squeeze my paws, go slow, ask for permission, I will be more relaxed. I had a mobile groomer come to the house last week and I did just fine with grooming. 

Now… music and TV. If you turn them on, I will HOWL. Not because I’m rude, but because I truly believe I can improve the soundtrack. My foster mom is teaching me “inside voice,” which seems… negotiable.

If you stop petting me, I will politely tap your arm for belly rubs. If you ignore me, I will tap again. And again. And again. This is your full time job now. I don’t make the rules.

And finally—the best part: I am VERY SMART. I already know SIT, DOWN, COME, and OFF. No classes, just raw talent. Imagine what we could accomplish together if we took an obedience class?. We could be a power duo. A legendary team. Possibly famous.

So… are you ready to meet your soulmate?

Go ahead. Fill out that application. Its time consuming, but aren’t I worth it?

You know you want to.

Ready… set… GO! 🐶
