Honor - Cocker Spaniel and Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in Los Angeles, California
HONOR
Cocker Spaniel, Mixed Breed
🇺🇸
Los Angeles, California
August 13th
female, medium, senior
DESCRIPTION
Meet Honor, mama to the Land Rover litter, one of seven who came to us from El Cajon after a family who couldn't keep the group. Thanks to fosters, we were able to step in to help.
She's 9 years old and weighs 24 pounds.
Honor's a spaniel mix, chestnut brown with a soft, feathered coat, and she carries a little wear on her teeth that hints at a past we can't fully piece together. She also has some mild arthritis, managed with a joint supplement, and it hasn't slowed down how much love she has to give.
In her foster home she lives with a 6lb. Chihuahua, and the two of them cohabitate like old friends. Honor adores the daughter in her foster family and lights up around kids in general, seeking out human affection any chance she gets.
She's not much for toys though, when the resident dog tried handing one over, Honor just looked at it, unsure what she was supposed to do with something that wasn't a person. She does great with other dogs, loves kids, and will absolutely take a pup cup if you're offering.
Once she found a comfy dog bed, that became her whole world, though given the choice she'd rather be pressed up against someone she loves than curled up alone.
If you think Honor sounds like the right fit for your family, head to hitlivingfoundation.org/adopt to apply.

ABOUT: COCKER SPANIEL DOG BREED
The Cocker Spaniel is a beloved breed known for its distinct charm, intelligence, and affectionate nature. With origins as hunting dogs, Cocker Spaniels have adapted to become popular family pets due to their playful demeanor and gentle disposition. These medium sized dogs boast a silky coat that requires regular grooming to maintain its luster. Cocker Spaniels thrive on human interaction and make excellent companions for individuals and families alike.
The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
