Meet Sounder, the charming 12.5-year-old cocker spaniel! 🎉 This distinguished gentleman is on a quest for his forever home, where he can thrive in his golden years surrounded by love. Sounder’s journey hasn’t always been easy, as he faced challenges that would make most tail wagging souls cringe. His previous owner adored him but was unable to provide the care he needed. Thankfully, he found his way to rescue, though he rolled in with a few of those classic Cocker skin and ear issues, plus a thyroid condition tamed by easy medication. His vet says this sweet soul is going to make a fabulous recovery, and he’s already shedding a bit of weight—he's currently a cuddly 30 lbs of pure love! ❤️ Now, let's talk about this lovable Velcro dog! Sounder is the ultimate companion, and he’s not shy about it—he’ll follow you everywhere! Yes, that’s right! Whether you’re whipping up a culinary masterpiece in the kitchen or taking a moment in the bathroom (no privacy here!), he needs to be side by side with you. His vision and hearing? Well, let's just say they’ve mellowed a bit, but nothing can slow down this dedicated lovebug! Sounder’s got some adorable antics, too! Picture him leaning into you like he’s giving the world’s biggest hug! And when you hit the road together? He’s the best co-pilot, resting his paw on your hand—take that, backseat drivers! 🚗 And when sirens wail, don’t be surprised if he morphs into Sir Sounder the Cocker Spaniel Fire Truck, howling along perfectly! Plus, he’s your rightful kitchen assistant, always on paw to help taste test any delicious snacks you whip up. This lovable pooch gets along splendidly with other dogs and older, dog-savvy kiddos! He’s a polite housemate, mastering the art of leash walking with grace, snoozing peacefully in his own bed, and patiently learning the ropes of housebreaking (progress is being made!). Toys? Not his jam—he just wants you! All he needs is a family that can be there for him, as being alone isn’t really his thing. What Sounder truly craves is your patience, love, and a heart that understands his senior spirit is filled with unwavering affection to give. If you’re seeking a loyal, doteful shadow who will uplift your days with joy and laughter, Sounder is your guy! 🥰 Let’s show this fabulous senior that the true joy of companionship knows no age. **Apply to adopt Sounder through the Buddy App today!**
