Taernan's Story
Taernan is a little red and white parti boy who was turned into a shelter by his family for reasons unknown. He was subsequently adopted by a family with a young child. One thing led to another and he nipped the child and one of her little friends. The parents all felt it was not his fault at all but were very inexperienced with dogs of any breed and decided they could not keep him. They returned him to the shelter in Westerly, RI after which the mother got in touch with a RI cocker rescue and begged them to get him out of the shelter as she had heard that he was going to be put to sleep. The recuer in turn pulled him and got him into a foster home. From there, the foster mother found a person to adopt him but it didin't work out as he nipped a few more people. He was returned to the foster Mom as a failed adoption. She has had him since Thanksgiving when he was returned to her care. She has grown to love him and he loves her as well. Taernan was adopted by his foster Mama on May 10, 2006 to join his two cocker brothers and one cocker sister. Oh, and he hasn't nipped ANYONE since he returned to us. |
