Cocoa is a 46-pound Terrier mix born on December 13, 2023, in Tyler, TX. He’s grown up with the SPCA of East Texas and now he’s ready for his own active family. Cocoa is all about energy—think hiking, jogging, or anything that gets him moving. He craves adventure, but he needs a confident, experienced handler to help him focus and thrive. He comes with a good foundation: commands like “sit,” “watch me,” and “leave it” are already under his belt. Give him guidance, and he will reward you by becoming a loyal, well-mannered companion. Cocoa does best as the only dog in the home. He needs that undivided attention and clear structure to become his best self. While he loves people, he’s not a fit for households with other dogs or cats. Kids, though? He’s game—just be prepared for his enthusiasm. December birthdays mean Cocoa is a Sagittarius—no surprise he’s outgoing and loves adventure. This boy is looking for someone who sees his potential and wants an athletic sidekick to grow with.
