Hi all,
I'm hoping that a network of devoted dog people can help one dog find a new home: This past week a 10 year old Cocker mix named Daisy found herself homeless when her elderly owner passed away. She is an adorable tan and
white cocker mix, very friendly, good with kids and other dogs. No health or behavioral issues. Her owner's children cannot keep her as they live on a farm and she needs a home with a fenced in yard (she will run away if she doesn't have a fenced in yard.) If anybody can think of someone who would like their new year brightened with a lovely little dog that still has plenty of life and love to give, please contact me at
ruggersmith@hotmail.com. I'm trying to help the family find her a home ASAP before they bring her to a rural shelter in VA -we all know how well a 10 year old dog would fair there...

She's in Virginia but the family is willing to bring her in to DC if there's someone interested in her. I haven't had any luck with rescue group as they all seem to be overwhelmed by the number of dogs they currently have. Can anyone take this wonderful girl either on a temporary basis until she can find a home or better yet, as her new permanent home?

Thanks much,

Carly
