About Coco

Meet Coco, an adorable Beagle mix who is approximately 8 to 10 years old and weighs 34 lbs. With characteristics typical of his breed, he enjoys his meals and loves to explore his secure fenced yard. Coco came to BAARK after his previous owner felt they didn’t have enough time for him. Though he lived as an only dog before, he quickly adapted to a foster home with several dogs, both large and small. While Coco prefers the companionship of humans, he does get along well with other dogs and even ignored the family cats he encountered. Coco enjoys car rides and behaves well in the vehicle. He walks nicely on a leash, making outings enjoyable. His vocalizations serve a purpose; whether it's dinner time or time to go outside, he's great at communicating his needs. Coco would thrive in a home that understands Hound behaviors, especially when it comes to food and barking. He is not suited for apartment living due to his breed’s tendencies. After joining BAARK somewhat overweight, it's crucial his new family can manage his diet effectively. Coco is already neutered, up to date on vaccinations, heartworm tested and negative, and on preventive care. If you're looking to welcome this handsome boy into your life, contact BAARK Dog Rescue for information and an application. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
