About Doc

Meet Doc, a charming tri-color Cocker Spaniel who is ready for a new chapter in his life.

He is slated for knee surgery soon, followed by physical therapy, which will help him regain mobility and comfort. Despite his initial struggles, Doc has a vibrant spirit and knows that a supportive community is cheering him on. He’s housetrained, vaccinated, and neutered, making him a great fit for most families. Doc gets along with other dogs and is ready for a home where he can flourish.
