Hans

My story

Hans and Sally will melt your heart. They joined the NorCal Family when their owners moved out of the country and could no longer care for them. Hans and Sally love to cuddle and will wait to be asked to join you on the couch or bed. They are not counter surfers but will clean your floor if you drop bits of food. On the Velcro scale, Hans is an 8.5 and Sally is a 6, often wandering off to see what other people are doing or find some tissues in small garbage cans. Sally can open baby gates, and will give the student proverbial “my dog ate my homework” excuse (actually, she just shreds paper). In your absence, she will look for a sock (from a laundry basket) or shoe to keep near her. Hans and Sally eat and drink from the same sources often at the same time. They love car rides, but haven’t figured out how to get in the car on their own yet. They are easy to bathe; Sally doesn’t like the hair dryer, Hans doesn’t mind it. They are working on leash training, as well as “wait,” “quiet,” and “stay.” Hans is laid back and easy going, Sally wants to be the boss. Both are getting acclimated to new sounds and situations, like people coming in the home or other people walking their dogs (on their street). Both dogs enjoy being off-leash at the dog park, but haven’t figured out that it’s a place to play with other dogs, preferring to stay close to people. Neither have figured out that balls are for retrieving. What they need: attention, cuddles, petting, and love. Hans and Sally have been fully vetted and are in good health, other than Sally's challenging ear infections. If you are interested in Hans and Sally, please go on our website at norcalcockerrescue.org and fill out an adoption application. You will notice from the pictures that Hans and Sally took good care of each other when they had to wear their "cone of shame" after spay and neutering. :-)

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Hans, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
