Lost & Adorable Cocker Spaniel shows up in Eli, Russell Co. KY 2017-07-08 - Eli, Russell County, KY - Photo Haley Cromwell. Had this dog to approach us in the Eli community in Russell County, KY. She is a female. Believe she has gotten lose as she had a collar on. She was very hungry, thirsty and scared. Very calm, sweet and relaxed. We are currently doing everything we can for her but we are not allowed to have animals, so if you know whose dog this is, or would be willing to give her a loving home, please contact me at 606-688-2484. As I'm trying everything possible before I have to take her to the shelter. - Haley Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
