About Nicole

Meet Nicole, a sweet Cocker Spaniel who has just joined Camp Cocker Rescue in Sherman Oaks, CA. Originally from Mongolia, Nicole is settling into her foster home and is looking for a loving family. She adores people and enjoys gentle head scratches and neck rubs. However, she needs time to build trust before feeling comfortable with sensitive areas like her paws or belly. If approached too quickly, she may growl to express discomfort, but once she trusts you, she'll happily roll over for belly rubs. Although Nicole can be cautious around unfamiliar dogs, especially on walks, she often ignores them in off-leash settings. She has a strong prey drive, so a home without cats would be best. Great news: She has excellent house manners and is reliable with potty habits. Nicole is a loyal companion waiting for someone who respects her boundaries and can help her trust at her own pace. She's ready to form a deep bond with the right person. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and let's get started.
