Raleigh is a black and white parti-color Cocker Spaniel. He is now fourteen years old. His puppy face and "Ball Boy" nickname are two things that make him special. He and his dad, David, have saved each other. Raleigh was rescued at one year old by David from an emaciated condition. He then flagged David"s heart disease years later when early morning walks were taken. David's pain was only on those walks. Raleigh is an even tempered beautiful boy, and we love him very much!
Raleigh is our third cocker spaniel. David and I each had a black one growing up. David was notified by a friend that an emanicated cocker had come to the local shelter near David's work site. He contacted the shelter and began visiting Raleigh at lunch as often as possible, and made sure he got a midday walk. When Raleigh became strong enough we took him home.
Personality wise Raleigh has always been mild mannered and very compliant. He makes excellent eye contact and wants to be where we are. Although his sight and hearing are compromised, he still follows the family routine well.
