I (Chey) just love this little girl so much. She has been through so much. When they first received her at the shelter, she beyond matted and the owners said she was aggressive. This was not the case. After shaving Marley's fur down so she would be comfortable, we found open bite wounds from a large dog. She was beyond timid and scared. She was clearly in a home where she was mistreated and they allowed the dogs to attack her. We have since treated her at the vet. She had cherry eye and we also had the vet take care of that. She is an unbelievably sweet, sweet, little girl. She is so submissive that she pees sometimes because she is so scared. I don't want to mislead you by not giving you that info. She needs a special home. A home that will be patient and give her the love she deserves and requires. She is a petite little cocker and only wants to feel secure.
