NOTE: THIS IS AN "OUT OF TOWN PET" - that means he is not at this location but we do have transport here - more about transport below. Our Rescue is Houston based (https://www.facebook.com/TwilightTailsRescue) and all our fosters and Rescue Ranch are in and around Houston. _______________________________________________________________________ Meet Cocoa Jace — the handsome, bright‑eyed adventure buddy you’ve been waiting for! Cocoa Jace is a 2‑year‑old, 19‑pound Chihuahua x Australian Kelpie mix with the perfect blend of sweetness, smarts, and playful energy. He’s affectionate, people‑oriented, and always ready to show off his heart‑melting head tilt or his signature “treat dance.” This boy is as well‑mannered as he is adorable. Cocoa is housebroken, crate‑trained, and walks beautifully on a leash. He does wonderfully with other dogs after a proper introduction, is curious but respectful around cats, and has been gentle and sweet with kids. What Makes Cocoa Special: Intelligent, eager to learn, and food‑motivated Affectionate without being clingy Great with dogs, kid‑friendly, and cat‑curious Housebroken and crate‑trained Loves walks, hikes, and backyard play True to his Kelpie roots, Cocoa thrives when his mind and body are engaged. He’d be a fantastic match for someone who enjoys staying active—whether that’s daily walks, weekend adventures, or fun training sessions. He’s the kind of dog who bonds deeply and loves being part of the action. Cocoa Jace is ready to bring joy, laughter, and loyalty to a family of his very own. If you’re looking for a smart, loving companion with a dash of goofy charm, this little guy can’t wait to meet you. Cocoa is being fostered in TX and is neutered, microchipped and up to date on his vaccinations. His adoption fee is $350 plus $30 for a health certificate and $260 for transport.

Transport means dogs are carefully and thoughtfully moved via scheduled air conditioned/heated vans from our doggy ranch in Fulshear, TX to a location near you. Each transport consists of a team of two drivers who can alternate. This is how we communicate in real time. The driver who is not driving, will be updating the group chat. You will be included in this group chat to track your dog through transport. You will also be given exact location and scheduled time of arrival. Our drivers do everything possible to run on-time however, things such as traffic, weather etc. can affect arrival time. You will updated regarding delays or possible early arrival. Keep in mind, dogs on transport stop for bathroom, walk and food breaks. For safety, all dogs are crated during transport. We use what we think is the best dog transport service in the region and have for years.
