Are you looking for a professional cuddle consultant who's actually just a big sweetheart in a dog suit? Well, stop scrolling, because Coco is officially here to steal your heart and your favorite spot on the couch! Coco is the kind of dog who doesn't just live in your house; she lives for you. She is the ultimate velcro dog, which means she'll happily be your silent partner while you work, your shadow while you cook, and your personal heater while you nap. While she loves a good outdoor adventure, she is a world-class lounger who believes that hanging out is a competitive sport, and she's taking home the gold medal! We think Coco is a stunning German Shepherd mix, but as with all rescue royalty, her exact DNA is a bit of a mystery! She is 50 pounds of pure, silver sable perfection. She's that just-right size, substantial enough for big bear hugs and sturdy hikes, but still convinced she can fit into your lap like a tiny puppy. She's a big girl with an even bigger heart, wrapped in a coat that shimmers like a sunset. Coco is currently flourishing in a loving foster home, where she's been soaking up life and learning the ropes, proving that she is as sweet as her name implies. She is a social butterfly who is always happy to meet new people with a wagging tail. She's so smart and eager to learn, especially if there is food involved! If you're looking for a partner to join you for training sessions, Coco is your girl; she's a total foodie who will work overtime for a snack! Whether she's showing off her impeccable leash manners or giving out free kisses, she's a girl who just wants to be part of the family action. She's even ready to be your favorite co-pilot for car rides to grab a pup cup!
Ideal Home
Coco would thrive in a house rather than an apartment setting because she has a classic, vocal Shepherd personality and likes to tell you all about her day! She would thrive with an active family who is familiar with the Shepherd breed and understands their loyal, intelligent nature.
Ongoing Health
No specific health conditions were mentioned in the listing.
Training & Support
Coco is currently learning the ropes of socializing with other dogs and is making great progress. She isn't quite sure what toys or zoomies are yet but seems very interested in squeaky toy sounds. She is polite and respectful of boundaries. Coco is more than ready to be your one and only star, but if you already have a pup at home, she'd be a great match for a calm, confident canine companion who can show her the ropes and share a sunny spot in the grass. Her opinion on cats is unknown and she will need a supervised sleepover with a kitty for a definitive answer.
