Cocker Spaniel Club of
Western Pennsylvania, Inc.
RESCUE
CSCWP places emphasis on responsibility for the breed. Included in this, is breed rescue. Rescue in such a popular breed is an enormous venture. Most of our club members are active in or willing to help with rescue in some way. However, the vast majority of the work falls to a small group of very dedicated members. We owe them many thanks and many dogs owe them their very lives.
In general the job of rescue includes making contacts, transporting dogs and puppies, supplying veterinary care, and placing the dog in a new home. In many cases it also means handling recovery, rehabilitation, socialization, grooming, house training, arranging foster care, and most importantly educating the public.
*************************
Currently, due to the the new state laws applying kennel regulations to any group or individual who does rescue, our rescue program is minimal. If you support breed rescue, call your state represtative and explain how these new laws are harmful to the pets who need help.
