About Coconut Arriving D

Coconut is an adorable, sweet girl ready to find her forever home. She came to the rescue a bit scruffy, but after some heartfelt care, she’s now happy and full of love. Quiet by nature, this little puppy hasn’t even discovered her bark yet. Coconut enjoys staying active, whether it’s playing tug-of-war with her sister or having fun with various toys. After a day of adventures, she’s just as content to settle down with a tasty meal and some cuddles for a cozy nap. Although she does well in her playpen, she hasn’t started crate training yet. Being a young puppy, Coconut will need some patience and guidance to learn about potty training, leash walking, and basic obedience. She's eager to learn and excited to grow with her new family!
