The Cocker Spaniel Rescue of New England is having it's 10th Annual Auction! All the money that is raised from this auction directly benefits Cocker Spaniels like Dolly. Dolly is an adorable girl who is only five years old and has a very sad story to tell. She was dearly loved by an elderly gentleman who had to be hospitalized due to a terminal illness. To make her situation worse, Dolly was diabetic and her owner did not realize it. Therefore, she was never treated, which caused her to loose her eye sight. Dolly was turned into CSRNE and brought to the veterinarian where she started to receive the care she needed for her diabetes. This includes a special diet and insulin injections that need to be given twice a day. Dolly is blind due to diabetic cataracts, but once she is regulated, those cataracts can be removed and her sight can be restored! The estimated cost of this surgery is $2600. Once the cataracts are removed, they can never return and Dolly will see again!

We have a silent, and live auction, of over 300 dog and non-dog items, raffles, door prizes and our famous bake table!
