Where “Perfectly Imperfect” Cocker Spaniels Find Their Perfect Match

Every day, senior dogs with medical needs are overlooked, left behind, or face being put down simply because they require extra care. At Camp Cocker Rescue, we believe every dog deserves to live their best life with a family who loves them just the way they are.

Healing hearts. Saving lives. Finding home.

We rescue the dogs that need us most – Cocker Spaniels and other small breeds with complex medical conditions, trauma, or urgent needs. We go above and beyond to give them the care they deserve and help them find the forever families who will never give up on them.

Camp Cocker Rescue began with one big heart and a simple belief: that no dog is too broken to be loved. We’re a passionate team of fosters, volunteers, and animal advocates who treat every dog like family. We stick around for the hard stuff because healing takes time, and no one should go through it alone.

How Adoption Works at Camp Cocker Rescue

We’re not here to rush you – we’re here to help you find the dog that’s truly the right match for your home, your heart, and your lifestyle. Our adoption process is thoughtful and supportive, with plenty of guidance along the way.

Here’s how it works:

Fill Out an Application
Tell us about your lifestyle, experience, and what kind of dog you’re looking for. It takes about an hour to complete and helps us find your perfect match!
Phone Interview & Vet Checks
We’ll talk more about your expectations, your home, and any specific dogs you’re interested in. We also contact your vet (and landlord, if applicable).
Home Safety Check
We’ll do a quick home walkthrough via video (or in person if local) to make sure your space is safe, secure, and dog-ready.
Meet the Dog
Once approved, we’ll help you schedule a time to meet one or more dogs in foster care. Most adopters come ready to go home with their new pup!
Adoption & Support
After the match is made, you’ll complete the adoption and donation. You’ll also get lifetime support from our team – we’re just a message away if you need help.

“We adopted our amazing dog Cooper (FKA Cowboy) a few months ago from Camp Cocker. Cathy was amazing throughout the whole process and was patient as we asked a million questions. She really does want this dogs to go to the best homes for them and it’s really refreshing to see.”
– Cowboy’s Adopters
“My wife and I adopted a cocker spaniel mix from Camp Cocker about 9 months ago. The adoption experience was wonderful. Besides the application documentation, Camp Cocker conducted an extensive zoom meeting with both of us to make sure we would be a good fit for the emancipated dog we had chosen to adopt. The adoption process was professional and thorough. We hope Teddy (we re-named him) lives a long life. But when his time comes up, we would definitely go through Camp Cocker again.”
– Teddy’s Adopters
“I adopted a dog from Camp Cocker (Goose) in early 2023 and it was a top notch experience.

Cathy and Erin were both super helpful and it was clear how much they care for the dogs they rescue! Erin picked up my dog after he was hit by a car and had a broken leg in the Riverside animal hospital where he was placed on the euthanasia list. He was then put through surgery by Camp Cocker and now he’s in perfect shape- you would never even know he had a broken leg. He was given a second chance at life by the generosity of Camp Cocker and now my life is changed as well.

Camp Cocker is a professional, generous, kindhearted organization where you can feel the love and compassion they have for dogs. I highly recommend!”
