Tucker lived his first two years tied to a pole with an abusive owner.
They dumped him at a shelter in western NY where he spent 8 months.
The shelter finally surrendered Tucker, formally known as Ulyses, to
the New England Springer Rescue, where he came to be our foster dog.
After a few weeks with Tucker we decided his forever home was with us!
I Adopted Your Dog Today
I adopted your dog today
The one you left at the pound
The one you had for two years
and no longer wanted around.
I adopted your dog today
Do you know he's lost weight?
Do you know he's scared and depressed
and has lost all faith?
I adopted your dog today.
he had fleas and a cold,
but don't worry none.
You've unburdened your load.
I adopted your dog today.
Were you having a baby or moving away?
Did you suddenly develop allergies or was
there no reason he couldn't stay?
I adopted your dog today.
he doesn't play or eat much
He's very depressed, but
he will learn again to trust.
I adopted your dog today.
And here he will stay.
He's found his forever home
and a warm bed on which to lay.
I adopted your dog today.
And I will give him all that he could need.
Patience, love, security, and understanding.
Hopefully he will forget your selfish deed.

What a face!
My Heart Belongs To An English Springer Spaniel
The English Springer Spaniel,
A graceful sporting breed-
Loyal and devoted,
With elegance and speed.
So patient and intelligent,
A charmer from the start-
When that Spaniel looked at me,
I quickly lost my heart.
Sprawled beside my chair at night,
Or sharing fun outside-
I can't imagine life without
My Springer by my side.
