Cocker Spaniel Adoption Center is a virtual rescue. We do not own a brick and mortar building. We are a network of fosters, adopters, and rescue partners. Primarily located in north-eastern Maryland and south-central Pennsylvania, CSAC accepts applications from anywhere someone is willing to drive from and pick up a dog. As an all volunteer organization, we may be limited by the number of volunteers in any geographical location. It may not be possible to complete our application process, i.e. a home visit, depending on your geographic location, but we will try out best.
If you would like to adopt one of our needy dogs, the fastest and most efficient way to be considered is to fill out an online application, and send it to us as soon as possible. The application will be reviewed by members of CSAC Placement team. The review process includes a background check, and whenever appropriate, a check and verification of the veterinary history of the applicant's present or previously owned animals. If the application is approved, we will contact the applicant by phone or email to set up a home visit. A home visit will be scheduled at a mutually convenient time. If all goes well, the approved applicant can schedule a meet and greet with the dog they are interested in adopting. The final stage of the adoption process is filling out the Adoption Agreement, which is signed by the adopter(s) and a CSAC representative.
