Mr. Pickles, was adopted from a local shelter in San Diego. He was the first dog we saw, and of course I have always had such a strong love for cocker spaniels since I was little, when we went into the office to adopt him the workers told us that he had 2 holds on him, for people to meet with him before they took him home, But we could stick around for a couple hours just in case the other people decided not to adopt him ( which I don't know who could resist his adorable face, and outgoing personality ). So we waited 3 hours at the animal shelter nervous, and hoping the others wouldn't show up, and sure enough they didn't so right at 12 o'clock, we jumped up and said he was ours! and sure enough he is! He was originally abandoned by his first owners by being thrown out of a car. But despite his past pickles, loves going on car rides. He has been nothing but a blessing to our home. With all his endless pickle kisses, and his love for cuddling.
