We are the authorities on rehoming springer spaniels but we do not have endless resources to provide foster homes, vet care or training. We do not have a 24/7 depot for "drop-offs".
ESRAC's priority is to those springers who find themselves in shelters or without a home due to owner's death. If you are moving, divorcing, newly pregnant, planning a trip, redecorating your home, your child is in college or have "fallen out of love" with your dog, you will have had sufficient time to make this decision and can use some time-tested suggestions to rehome your dog.
While we would like to help every springer, we are unable to absorb your responsibility for your dog. We would be happy to help you with ideas that you can use to rehome your dog... like placing a poster at your veterinary clinic. If you have purchased your dog through a reputable breeder of English Springer Spaniels, you MUST contact them for "first refusal".
If ESRAC is able to accept your dog in the foster home program, you will be asked to sign a legal relinguishment form giving ESRAC legal ownership of your property (dog). It will be expected that you will financially support your dog for a minimum of 3 months ($150). If your dog is intact, it is expected that you will alter your dog prior to it entering the foster home program.
If your senior dog is suddenly urinating on the floor and your wife threatens divorce, please consult your vet. If your senior dog appears confused and unable to move, please consult your vet as we are not veterinary professionals. If you've owned your dog since he was a pup and he is now 14 years old and ill, we will encourage you to consult with your vet ... we will not euthanize your dog because it is too sad for you to do.
Due to liability, ESRAC does NOT take any springer with a known bite history.
