Adopt Koko

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

by Kennels | Jan 28, 2026 | Dogs, Female, Liverpool, New Resident Liverpool, Dogs, Female, Liverpool, New Resident Koko came to Freshfields in January 2026 after her owner was struggling to cope with multiple children as well as Koko in the home and felt her needs weren’t being met. Koko was used to living in a very busy household, we feel she may benefit from a slightly quieter environment but she would be very happy to have people around her. However, she is crate trained and can be left for a few hours without any issues. Typical of her breed, she did come to us with a few skin issues believed to be triggered by hormones. Following initial treatment and baths, her skin cleared up really well and has not been an issue since. It’s worth knowing that as we aren’t sure of the root cause, she may always have minor skin issues. She came to us with cherry eye, we have since operated to get the eyes sorted, and she’s been neutered. It’s always worth doing a bit of research into Pocket Bully breeds to understand more about them. Understandably, during her first few days with us, Koko was a little nervous and hesitant around new people. However, since she has come out of her shell she is a firm favourite among staff (who will always find time in their day for cuddles on the sofa) and adores making new friends with everyone she meets. She is full of beans, always has her tail wagging and rolls over for belly rubs; she can get right in your face to demand a fuss. She has a fantastic personality and would be a great addition in the right home. Koko is sweet, loving, slightly dopey and completely entertaining. She can be a little reluctant to walk so would be suited to a more low pace home with gentle walks. She lets of steam by zooming around our farm field and seems to prefer burning off her energy that way so, she would benefit greatly if you have an outdoor space to let her out to or a nearby park/field. She is a very low-maintenance dog. We believe Koko would be suited to: – Being the only pet in the home – Older / dog-savvy children in the home – Someone who is looking for a low energy dog – A family looking for their best friend Koko is vaccinated and up to date with her flea and worm treatment so following on from meets and a home check with her potential adopter, she is good to go home.

About Koko

What life with Koko looks like

Koko is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Freshfields Animal Rescue in Liverpool.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇬🇧Adopting from United Kingdom

UK shelters work under the Pet Travel Scheme (post-Brexit, the EU pet passport is not valid; a UK Animal Health Certificate is required for travel into the EU). Most UK rescues focus on domestic placements but some work with EU partners.

Frequently asked

Adopting Koko, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Koko?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Freshfields Animal Rescue handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Koko on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Koko if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Freshfields Animal Rescue will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. UK adopters: post-Brexit travel into the EU requires an Animal Health Certificate. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Koko already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Koko isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Freshfields Animal Rescue early rather than rehoming privately; they know Koko and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (EN). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
