| That was such a great thing you did!! You are such a sweet and caring person!! I wish I lived closer, I would take her in a heart beat. I love yorkies but my first love is cockers. And to think someone mistreated her so badly makes me so angry and upset!! She looks perfect to me, such a little sweet heart!!

| IMO, that's probably the best hundred bucks you ever spent. Best of luck to you and Raven. |

| Wow, this is a wonderful thing you are doing. You can almost see the pain in her eyes from what she has had to endure. You're amazing and such a savior to Raven.

| I will never understand people mis-treating poor, defenseless animals! I think everyone of them should be prosecuted! It's really very simple, if you do NOT love dogs, don't get one! Bless you for saving this one! |

Donating YT 30K Club Member | Bless you for your heart of gold. Raven is so lucky now he will get the chance to live in a loving home and never be neglected or abused again. WHen you rehome maybe you can ask for some donations ot your new rescue. Someone will be getting a purebred Cocker so they shouldn't mind.

| If she is still really smelly after she's been groomed when you take her to the vet definately have them check her ears out. We had a cocker come into our facility that had been running on it's own for about 4-6 months and her ears were so bad the stink stayed on our skin for weeks. They are susceptible (sp) to serious ear infections and complications because their ears are so heavy and seal their ear canals shut so often times moisture gathers, then bacteria and very painful infections. Most of the issues are easily treated with ear drops and some oral anitbiotics. Good luck with her!

| Thank you everyone for your kind words...here is an update on Raven's first 24 hours.. Raven is so hand shy that when you try to pet her she falls to the floor...poor baby. So my hubby and I sit on the kitchen floor and both take turns calling her name, when she comes we shower her with rubs and hugs. She is really afraid of my husbad so I am positive her abuser was a male, although I think she was abused by the woman too. Raven adores the kids and lets them pet her and jumps on their laps for cuddles. She isnt housebroken so we are crate training her and putting her on a leash when she comes out of her crate and straight up the stairs to the back door and out to pee. I bet she has hardly ever been outdoors!! She is soft as a teddy bear and GORGEOUS!! When I rehome her I will have a fee for her for sure as someone who is willing to pay for her will be more likely to give her a good home, but for sure for sure I will screen the new family to the best of my ability..home check etc.. Anyhow thats our update...hugs everyone!! Dawn |

| Well good news!! I talked to a dear friend up in a city about an hour from here and on March 5th she will be adopting Raven!! She is giving me a generous donation to help out my rescue also!! Raven is going to love her and she will ADORE Raven!! She has a neutered male 1 year old blonde cocker and he is sooooooooo spoiled. He always has a new sweater or coat everytime I see him, or a new collar or something..he is spoiled absolutely rotton and the king of the hill!! Raven is so passive that she will make a wonderful companion to her dog. She goes to the dog park twice a day and is semi-retired!! I havent talked to her for about 4 months and when we were emailing each other she mentioned getting another dog...maybe a BLACK cocker lmbo..I said DO I HAVE A DOG FOR YOU!!! We think it must have happened for a reason...FATE!! Dawn |

| Dawn, that is wonderful news!.. Raven is so fortunate you crossed paths... I hope you have the opportunity to rescue more animals in need.... It's a bittersweet line of work for you. It's great that your willing to put in the determination, effort, & commitment...It's just a shame that there is even a need for it. Keep up the good work

| Wow Dawn WOW!!! i could just sit here and cry.. that was so awesome of you !!!!! Someone needs to report that family. It is so unfair that those children have to live in such horrible conditions also.. I don't understand people.. I'm sorry but there is no reason to live in filth. I wonder if anyone checks on the child who needs the kidney transplant and what conditions they live in... Well I know that you will find the perfect home for Raven. She really touched my heart.. It is a real blessing that there are people out there like you.. Congratulations on a successful rescue.. YOU GO GIRL!!!!!!!!!!! annette and louie |
