Adopt Coco

Shih Tzu · Female · Senior · 13 years

Coco is a 13-year-old Crossbreed looking for her perfect retirement home. Despite her age, she's energetic and loves treats, toys, and exploring. She needs an adult-only home where she'll be the only pet, though she's friendly with dogs during walks. Coco requires multiple meets at the center and gradual building of alone time after adoption. She's described as very sweet with much to offer the right family.

Coco can't wait to find her pawfect retirement home! All she needs is a home filled with love, a comfy spot on the sofa and someone to take her out for little adventures. If Coco sounds like the girl for you, please submit an application and include her as a 'Favourite' dog. Thank you! Meet Coco! This lovely lady is a 13 year old Crossbreed. Coco is an older girl, but that doesn't mean she doesn't have lots of energy for fun! She loves her treats, enjoys playing with toys and is super curious meaning she is always ready to explore. Coco is looking for an adult only home where she will be the only pet. Although she wouldn't enjoy sharing a home with other dogs, she doesn't mind having walking friends or saying hello to dogs she encounters on her walks. Her adopters may need to come to the Centre for multiple meets to learn all about Coco's likes and dislikes from our Training Team. Her closest handlers say that she is a very sweet girl who has so much to offer someone. Coco has previously been happy spending a couple of hours alone, but any leaving time after adoption will need to be gradually built up once she has settled into her new home.
