Dakota, cocker spaniel
Dakota is a charming male cocker spaniel staying at Furry Kids Refuge.
Dakota is a social animal, and he'll get along great with other dogs. Have no fear: He's already house-trained. He has all of his shots, and he is neutered.
Dakota's current caretakers say:
Dakota is a cocker spaniel that came to Furry Kids in a very poor condition. He was missing much of his hair and was in desperate need of grooming. Dakota is a very social and happy little dog now. He loves people and other dogs. Initially he will bark at larger dogs, but, given a chance to become their friend, he settles down quickly.
