About Coral

Coral may be small at 15 pounds, but this 3-year-old terrier mix has a personality that fills a room! Rescued when she couldn’t walk, she came to Fido's Companion with a doggy wheelchair, which she immediately embraced. At first, the vet believed she might never walk again, but Coral defied the odds. Now, she enjoys short walks and can even navigate stairs, although she happily uses her wheelchair for longer adventures. However, don’t let her inspiring journey fool you—Coral has a spirited side and prefers to be the star of the show. She loves her people and doesn't take kindly to sharing attention. While she's fine with cats and can cohabitate with other dogs, her jealous streak means she thrives in an adult-only home or with older children who understand her boundaries. Coral adores being near her humans and expresses genuine displeasure when left alone. She’s not looking for sympathy; she seeks someone who values her determination and zest for life. If you appreciate a tiny dog with plenty of attitude, Coral might just be the perfect match for you! Click apply to start the adoption process.
