About Coco

Meet Coco, your future best friend and loyal companion. Coco is an 8-year-old Chow Chow/Shepherd mix who weighs about 55 pounds. As a fully potty trained dog, she walks well on a leash and enjoys lounging at home while you run errands. Coco is deeply affectionate and forms strong bonds with her people. She's happiest when by your side, going for walks, or just hanging out. While she takes her time to trust new faces, once she knows you, she’s loving and protective. It’s essential for her to have slow introductions with new people and other dogs since she can be a bit unsure initially, but she has shown she can warm up with the right approach. Short car rides are manageable for her, though she prefers not to travel long distances. If you’re ready to offer patience and consistency, Coco promises to give you her whole heart in return. Her adoption fee is $350, which covers vaccinations, her spay, and microchip. Could Coco be your new best friend?
