History: We recently welcomed Gidget and her sister, Moonie to rescue from a local (ish) shelter who reached out in hopes we can welcome them to Coco’s Heart and help them with their confidence as they both arrived a bit shy. They have been doing well in rescue and are coming out of their shells by the day!

A Note from the Foster: Hello from Gidget aka Big Boy!  He’s a beautiful lab mix who’s learning what it is to have a life in a house.  So far, he’ll signal with a little howl that he needs to go outside to potty.  He is quiet as a mouse in his kennel when I go on errands and prefers to sleep in it at night.  Ask him to “go in” and he enters his kennel like a champ.  He has met several different little dogs which he prefers to play with over our 3 year old Staffy.  He easily accommodates to the day’s activities and is more of a strong but silent type of fella.  He has been a joy to have around our household!  

Adoption Fee: $750 + tax

Adoption Status: Is this dog available? Submitting an application is the best first step to learning if a dog is still available. There is a chance this dog could have a pending adoption when your application is submitted, however our team will offer approved applicants to be put on a waiting list for that dog. Additionally, we can make recommendations on other dogs that may be a match. Pending adoptions do not mean the adoption is finalized. Why did we implement this change? We implemented this update because, unfortunately, dogs were pending for applicants for several weeks and then the applicant would change their mind. This happens more often with puppies, as applications are submitted impulsivly more often for them. Our process is great because it takes a little time, so impulsive decisions fade. However it was unfortunate for the dogs, and the foster homes, as then the process needed to be re-started. By securing a wait-list we are able to move forward more quickly if a pending adoption falls through. This is a new process for us, so your feedback along the way is helpful! Thank you for supporting rescue and adoption!
