About Coco

Coco is searching for a foster or forever home after being rehomed due to her family's medical challenges. This 7-year-old female Bouvier des Flandres is cropped and docked, living currently in the Houston area of Texas. She's not bonded with her son, Rocky, and has spent time apart from him without issues. Coco can be a bit bossy, particularly when it's mealtime, but she deeply loves her humans. While she has some arthritis in her backend, Coco is in great shape overall. She’s spayed, up to date on vaccinations, and heartworm negative. Coco's ideal home should be free of small dogs, cats, and farm animals, but she has done well with children aged 7 and up. If you’re interested in learning more about Coco, please reach out to Joanna Shuckman at txcoord2@abrl.org or call 214-729-7314. This lovable companion is ready to become part of a caring family.
