History: Artie is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome and striking boy who is ready to meet his forever home soon!

A Note from the Foster: Artie is a shy little guy who’s still figuring out the world at his own pace. He’s not yet comfortable being petted and doesn’t actively seek out attention, but he does enjoy being near his people and hanging out quietly in the same space. He’s more of a “presence” dog than a cuddle bug—for now—and that’s okay.

From a medical standpoint, Artie has had a bit of a rough start. After arriving in rescue, we noticed he didn’t respond to sound and would sleep through even loud noises. A vet visit revealed severe ear infections, with his ears full of debris. His ears have now been treated twice, and while he does seem to have gained some hearing back, he still appears to be hearing impaired. 

The vet also found severe dental disease, and Artie’s remaining few teeth were removed. He has recovered well and is feeling much more comfortable now that his mouth is pain‑free.

Artie is still working on house training. He enjoys exploring our fenced yard and does best when he can move around at his own pace. He is not yet comfortable on a leash—when one is put on, he tends to lay down and refuse to move—so a securely fenced yard will be important for his forever home.

Artie is looking for a quiet home with a patient, understanding family who will give him the time he needs to build confidence. He’s not a dog who will settle in overnight, but with consistency, gentle handling, and realistic expectations, he has the potential to continue making progress.

If you have a calm home and a soft spot for the underdogs—the ones who just need a little extra patience—Artie may be the right fit for you.

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!

History: Barklett is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome who is working on his trust and confidence and hopes to find his forever home soon!

A Note from the Foster: Barklett the chihuahua came in to rescue covered in mats and stained fur, you can tell he has not been in a home and everything continues to be a learning experience for him. Despite this, he is so sweet and gentle. He sits throughout his baths and brushing so well-he looks and feels so much better already! He is a quiet guy with soulful eyes and a big smile. He enjoys sitting outside just taking it all in. Barklett loves affection, he’ll follow you around and plop over for belly rubs. He loves being by your side and burrowing in blankets on the couch, he’d make a great lapdog since he likes to be held as well.

He is curious and perks up around other dogs. He has even started to initiate play with them! Having another dog in the home to help show him the ropes will be super helpful.

He is curious of cats, and will try to sniff them, but redirects easily. Loud noises and fast motions overwhelm him and he would do best in a more lowkey home.

Barklett is a quick learner, he is doing excellent with potty training on a schedule, he likes to keep his kennel clean, and does well sleeping in there overnight. He will let you know when he needs to get let out in the morning. 

He has made tremendous strides on leash training and really enjoys going for walks! 

Barklett is so sweet, sensitive and loving. It will be so rewarding to watch him blossom as he gets more comfortable with his new lifestyle! He is showing us more of his spunky chihuahua personality each day

A Note from the Foster: Hi my names Barnabus but my foster family calls me Scuuuuuuuba. Don’t ask me, I guess it’s a trend going around. You can see I’m a short little fluffy low rider. I am new to getting all this attention in a home so I prefer quiet spaces and calmer personalities around me. Lots of noises and people just make me a little anxious, it’s all so new! My happy place is laying in the guest bedroom where I can relax, but I come out and say hi throughout the day to see everyone. I am great at going outside and going potty too! I keep my kennel clean every night and I don’t make a peep. I have other dog friends here and I don’t necessarily play with anyone but I’m happy to live with them. I’d love a home that fits my calm personality. If you think we’d be a good fit, I’m excited to meet you!

A Note from the Foster: Hi, I’m Blanton! I’m a little cautious but very curious about people and I get along great with other dogs. I’m not very food motivated but I get very excited for mealtime and am crate trained. Because of my carefulness, I will only snuggle on my terms but I love gentle pets and am doing well learning how to “ask” for attention. I’m in the process of being potty/leash trained and I’m doing great in learning to trust people, progress proven by my willingness to be picked up. I’m ready for a patient forever home that’ll allow me to grow my curiosity. I know they’re out there somewhere and I can’t wait to meet them!

History: Brucey is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome and striking boy who is ready to meet his forever home soon!

A Note from the Foster: Brucey is a big, goofy teddy bear looking for his forever family.  Although he looks intimidating, apparently no one ever told him he's supposed to be scary because he wants to be everyone's friend!  Overall, he's a lazy, laid-back guy that loves getting attention from everyone he meets.

Heading out on a walk is Brucey's favorite activity!  He needs redirection from time to time (like when a squirrel or rabbit is around), but does well on a leash and enjoys exploring new smells and sights. When he arrived to rescue, he was skinny and deconditioned. Walks are helping him gain some much needed muscle to carry his big body around. 

Life in a house with a family is new to Brucey.  He's had to learn (and still occasionally forgets) that socks are not snacks, that his people will come home again, and that going to the bathroom is an outside thing.  It took a few days, but Brucey did get used to a kennel and is comfortable crated at night and during the day when he is home alone.  He can be awkward with other dogs, but may benefit from having other dog siblings to help him continue to understand his place in the world.  To be manageable as a big dog, Brucey is benefitting from ongoing training in basic house manners.  Reminders that he can't run out the front door every time it opens and that he can't lay his head on the kitchen counter (even though it is right there at his eyelevel) are helping him become his best self.   He does have a bit of a stubborn streak, but really does just want to please and spend time with his people.

Brucey would make an amazing addition to any family that is looking for a big, sweet, companion!

Casimir is available as a foster to adopt

Age: DOB: 06/07/2022
Weight: TBA
Dog Friendly: Yes- needs another dog in the home
Cat Friendly: Unknown
Kid Friendly: Older or No Children Ideal
House Trained: Doing great!

History: Casimir is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome and striking boy who is ready to meet his forever home soon!

A Note from the Foster: Casimir is a four-year-old mini poodle with a gentle soul and a story that’s just beginning to unfold. His name, Casimir, means “bringer of peace,” and it couldn’t be more fitting for this sweet, sensitive boy.

As a breeder release dog, Casimir is still learning what it means to simply be a dog—and he’s making beautiful progress every single day. In his foster home, he’s slowly coming out of his shell, gaining confidence, and discovering the joys of freedom—like exploring a fenced yard and relaxing in the comforting presence of other dogs. He truly enjoys being near his canine companions and takes cues from them as he learns the ropes.

While Casimir is still very shy and can be skittish, he makes up for it by being twice as sweet. He’s recently started showing interest in toys (a big milestone!) and sleeps quietly in his kennel through the night. He’s currently wearing a belly band as he works on his marking behavior, and he will be scheduled for neuter following his intake appointment on May 12.

Casimir would do best in a calm, patient home—ideally with older children or adults only—where he can continue to build trust at his own pace. With time, love, and understanding, this peaceful little pup is sure to blossom into a devoted companion.

If you’re looking for a soft-hearted dog to grow with and cheer on as he discovers the world, Casimir just might be your perfect match.

History: Chewy Chew is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome and striking boy who is ready to meet his forever home soon!

A Note from the Foster: Chewy Chew a.k.a. “Harry” as I call him is a distinguished senior Lhasa Apso with a heart as big as his fluffy coat. A true gentleman through and through, he carries himself with quiet confidence and a calm, steady presence that makes everyone around him feel at ease. In his foster home, Chewy has naturally taken on the role of “dad of the group”—a gentle leader who keeps the other dogs in line with patience and wisdom. His dad duties also include following me around and making sure “I am doing it right”when I am doing the laundry or getting food ready. Despite his leadership role, Chewy is incredibly sweet enjoying peaceful moments lying in a bed near you. Being a breeder release that spent the first 11 years of his life in the breeding cycle he has adjusted well to my home. He still doesn’t know if he loves getting petted always, but he is open to exploring it with you.

Chewy Chew would thrive in a laidback household where his calm nature and loving personality can truly shine. He loves exploring the backyard with the other dogs and protecting me from those pesky plastic balls the neighbors kids leave out. When he is barking (which doesn’t happen often) you may think a seal has gotten into your yard, but nope just Chewy. We haven’t started leash training or going on walks, but I know he would LOVE to have someone to go on walks with.

If you're looking for a loyal companion with a nurturing spirit and a wise soul, Chewy is ready to be your steady, loving presence.

History: Colter is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome who is working on his trust and confidence and hopes to find his forever home soon!

A Note from the Foster: Meet Colter… but he goes by “Crush” because he will steal your heart 💙

And trust us—once you meet him, you’ll understand why.

Crush is a 7-year-old toy poodle with a soft soul, a cozy vibe, and a professional-level snuggle game. His favorite place? Curled up right next to you (or better yet… on you). He’s the kind of dog who doesn’t just sit beside you—he connects with you.

This sweet boy has come a long way from his past life and is learning just how good the comfy, couch-loving, treat-filled life can be. He’s gentle, affectionate, and happiest when he knows he’s safe and loved.

✨ Crush’s highlights:

Certified cuddle bug 🛋️

Loves being close to his person 💕

Calm, gentle, and easy to love

Does well with potty training on a schedule! 

Does great walking on a leash

🩺 Health note (the honest but easy version):
Crush has a mild heart murmur (very common in small dogs!) that just means he’ll need routine vet check-ins every 6–12 months to keep an eye on things. The good news? He’s not on any medication and is doing great! He also takes a daily supplement to support his liver.

💙 What Crush is looking for:
A home where he can continue to blossom—someone who appreciates the quiet moments, the little tail wags, and the joy of earning a shy dog’s full trust. He’s not flashy… he’s heart-stealing.

💙He’s not a big fan of bare wood floors, so would do best in a home with carpet or rugs. 

💙He loves other dogs, but also loves his human, so he would do well as an only dog or with other dogs. 

If you’re looking for a loyal guy with the softest heart… Crush might just be your perfect match. 💕

A Note from the Foster: Meet Cub! Cub is an adult male Pomeranian looking for his forever family. He is a larger Pomeranian with a striking coat and beautiful eyes. Cub is making great progress while being in rescue. Although he is on the shy side, he is a good boy. He will require another dog in the home. He truly loves the company of other dogs and prefers to have one near by. Cub recently discovered he loves to go for walks and sniff all of the grass and bushes. 

He is kennel trained, and can either sleep in his kennel overnight or on your bed. 

He loves to follow me (his foster mommy) everywhere in the house. He also loves to lay in the backyard or on the porch and soak in the sunshine. He has also recently discovered toys and likes to play tug of war, which is great for bonding. 

Cub will need some time to adjust in his new home and be comfortable with the humans, but he is worth it. If you think you may be a good match for Cub, please apply today to meet him!

History: Davies is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome and striking boy who is ready to meet his forever home soon!

A Note from the Foster: Davies is a sweet and playful little guy who loves to cuddle. One of his favorite spots is on my lap. He gets along great with dogs of all sizes, and is especially enamored with the big dogs. When kenneled, he sometimes barks a bit a first but then settles in. He was really patient being groomed. We’re working on potty training; in a house of male dogs his instinct is to mark, but this could change once he is neutered. Currently, he tolerates a belly band when I can’t watch him closely. 

Davies is still shy and scared of loud noises and quick movements but warms up quickly. He would do well in a home with or without other dogs. He may do fine with cats and other pets too,  it has not been exposed to them yet.

A Note from the Foster: Dune gives the best hugs! He loves to plop down on your chest and nuzzle his chin in.  He is potty trained.  He loves people, including kids.  He does well in a crate.  He is a herding breed so he does love lots of exercise.  He loves walks!  However, he is starting to get a little leash reactive/protective on our walks now when he sees another dog.  He did well with our cats right away and recently he has felt more comfortable with them and feels the need to chase/heard them. He is very smart boy! He does great with our dog! Everyone that meets him falls in love with him right away 

Dune is so excited to meet his forever family!

History: Forester is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome and striking boy who is ready to meet his forever home soon!

A Note from the Foster: Are you looking for new pal?
My name is  Forester! I came to Coco’s Heart in early April and my FM says I’m making really good progress!   (Not sure what that means, but I must say I do feel more brave every day.) 

I go in and out of my crate throughout the day between trips to hangout outside.  I never knew outside was  so wonderful. There’s so many new things to see and hear.   I love to sit outside in the sun so my FM says I should find a forever family with a fenced in yard.  I do get excited and let my FM know if I see anything I think she should know about so I’m learning “shhh and quiet”.   

I love to meet other dogs and am learning this thing called “play”.   It’s really fun but my foster sister is much bigger than me and has a lot of energy so I let her know when I’ve had enough.  It would be fun to live with another small dog, but I’d do fine having the full attention of my family too. ;)

I sleep in my crate all night, (preferably with the door open) as long as I get out to potty before bed. If not, I can’t settle down until I get out to potty.  If my foster mom leaves during the day, she says I have to have the door closed until she gets home.

Given I’m 3 years old and never got to go outside to potty, it’s a new concept for me.  I’m learning, but sometimes  I fall back into my old habits - mostly when my FM forgets my potty schedule.   She’s learning….  Because of that I wear a belly band in the house.   My FM says after I get neutered, I might not need those any more.
When I first got here I was afraid of people.  Then I learned that I get my ears scratched and petted by humans so I’m comfortable going up to people and letting them know I’d like some attention.

My new family will need to be patient with me as I continue to learn what life can be like in this new world.   So far, I’m loving it!

I’d love meet you!

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!

History: Frankie was locally surrendered to rescue and is working hard on his confidence. He does best with another dog nearby and would love to meet you soon!

A Note from the Foster: Frankie is a very sweet boy. He is eager to please and will keep trying to figure things out until he does whatever is the right thing. We have been working on teaching him that purely existing is enough and the right thing. He will pace between his kennel, water bowls, and door to go outside over and over again looking for your direction on which one you want. He is kennel trained and is working on potty training. He does pretty well at keeping his kennel clean but the second he’s let out even while in the process of running outside he starts to go potty. We are actively working on ways to fix this. We’ve tried more frequent let outs, but it doesn’t matter the second he comes out of the kennel. The potty also comes out.  he doesn’t know how to alert us to his need to pee. 

He absolutely LOVES toys! It’s initially how we got him to come out and spend time with us. He will grab a stuffed toy, preferably one that squeaks and he will run it to whatever his safe space is. At first it was his kennel, but now it has even become one of his human foster family members! He occasionally will tear apart of stuffed toy, so it’s best to not have those in the kennel with him. Typically, though he just carries them around and squeaks them.

He is fantastic with other dogs and cats. Frankie needs another dog in his home. One who is confident, doesn’t have anxiety, and won’t be bothered by his anxiety. This type of dog help him feel secure and provide a sense of calm. He is very good at dealing with all types of dogs, but it is necessary to have at least one dog in the home who is calm and confident.

Frankie is not yet trained when walking into new places he tends to zigzag or pancake crawl. I don’t have a super good way to explain this other than he gets super Duper low to the ground like a pancake, but somehow crawls at the same time. But if you change directions and start heading back to Home, he will plow full force ahead because he knows that he likes it there.

Initially upon meeting people, Frankie is nervous. He will get very low to the ground and we do a little sniff but scurry back to his safety whether it be his kennel space a Puppy pen or one of his foster humans. But he opens up pretty quickly. Once he realizes you like him and are kind to him. He will want to continue receiving love from you!

Frankie is the most beautiful boy and he keeps capturing hearts by his photos however, Frankie is unique boy with a specific need for his confidence building… which means he needs a family interested in him to really think about if they are a good fit for him and if he will be a good fit for them in return! 

This Bio is going to keep changing as Frankie keeps learning and growing within his foster home. So please, if you’re enamored by him keep checking. I aim to keep the Bio as accurate as possible throughout his progress!

History: Goalie is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome who is working on his trust and confidence and hopes to find his forever home soon!

A Note from the Foster: Goalie is a 7 year old breeder release Havanese who’s just beginning to learn what it means to feel safe and loved. He has a gentle soul but can be very shy and fearful of people. With patience, consistency, and a calm environment, he’s slowly coming out of his shell.

Goalie is making slow progress on leash walking and potty training. He will need a family that understands that trust takes time and is willing to celebrate the small wins along the way. 

One thing that really helps Goalie is having another confident dog in the home. He looks his happiest following my resident dog out in the yard. He looks to other dogs for guidance, so a canine companion will be important. 

Goalie does have a level 4 heart murmur and will require annual echocardiograms to monitor his condition. Goalie will have his remaining couple teeth removed at his neuter appointment but he still eats kibble mixed with a little wet food. 

If you’re someone with a big heart, a quieter home, and the willingness to let Goalie move at his own pace, you’ll be giving this sweet boy the second chance he truly deserves.

Breed: Bichon Frise
Age: DOB: 05/2022
Weight: 16 lbs
Dog Friendly: Yes
Cat Friendly: Yes
Kid Friendly: Yes
House Trained: Doing great!

History: Grigio is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome and striking boy who is ready to meet his forever home soon!

A Note from the Foster: Grigio is transforming into the sweetest, most loving little companion! Lately, he has decided that he craves attention, and we love it for him. He has officially discovered the joy of being a lap dog and will happily curl up for a long cuddle session. If you want to be his instant best friend, just give him a good scratch right under his chin or behind his ears—he melts!

He has also proven to be a fantastic roommate for pretty much any pet. He does wonderfully with both big and small dogs, using their confidence to help build his own. He also met cats recently and did great—he’s curious but very respectful, showing no aggression or fear. He also spent time around older kids (tweens and teens) and did beautifully! Because he is still building up his confidence, he’d likely do best in a home with older children or a calm environment, with or without other pets.

Grigio is still a curious explorer who loves his yard time, and we are continuing to practice his leash walks. He recently conquered a full flight of stairs! And we love when he stands on his hind legs like a circus performer to catch a glimpse or a sniff of something on a table or bench.  

A note on his house training: Grigio has made huge improvements with his marking once he learns a routine and feels safe in a consistent home. However, new environments and visiting other houses can still make him a bit nervous, causing him to regress and mark. A patient adopter who understands that he just needs time to adjust to new spaces will help him succeed.

If you are looking for a gentle, cat-friendly, dog-friendly little shadow who will fill your lap and your heart with love, Grigio is ready to meet you!

History: Grouper is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome and striking boy who is ready to meet his forever home soon!

A Note from the Foster: Meet Grouper 🐾 — a beautiful and lovable pug with lots of puggy charm!

Grouper is a 5 year old pug from a breeder release who is quickly becoming one of our favorite fosters. He started off very quiet but is quickly coming out of his shell and turning into a happy little boy.

He loves people, really loves other dogs and loves kids. He is starting to play with toys and loves playing with his puppy foster sister.

He does not do well in his kennel, (typical for breeder release dogs), but sleeps fantastic through the night in a bed. He loves being near people or other dogs and doesn’t seem to need alone time.

He is working on going down the stairs but can go up just fine.

He has trouble being picked up, but is fine once he is in your arms, and loves tummy rubs, cuddles, and chilling on the couch.

He is big marker now, but that should improve once he is neutered. He does wear a belly band most of the time and gives you no trouble putting it on or keeping it on.

He is still learning how to be a dog in a home with people. He is learning best with his foster sister & brothers showing him what to do. He would thrive best in a home with another pug or dog of similar age and size.

He does need his ears, eyes, face folds and feet cleaned every day until they improve from the prior care, but he is getting much healthier already.

He’s still learning how to walk on a leash outside and he’s learning how to potty train. He’s trying hard but doesn’t quite get why we want him to potty outside & not inside.

He is very food motivated and is trying hard to sit, stay, wait, and leave it.

Grouper will make a great addition to any current or former pug family. He is such a sweet happy boy and brings so much joy to be around.

History: Gustav is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome who is working on his trust and confidence and hopes to find his forever home soon!

A Note from the Foster: Meet Gustav (Gus) in our home. A handsome, little gentleman with a heart of gold. He has beautiful coloring and gorgeous brown eyes.

Gus came to us from a breeder release. He was a scared, withdrawn and sad dog. He spent most of his time hunched in his kennel. After weeks of patience, love, understanding and gentle encouraging, he has learned to love living in a home, learning new routines and how to trust. There are still moments of anxiety now and then.

He loves naps close to you, sleeps all night in his kennel and loves massages cuddled up in bed with you. Fully potty trained, goes out approx. every 4-5 hours. He is learning how to go on walks and loves them. Usually goes on a short one in am and longer in pm. He does not shy around other dogs, but not sure about cats.

Still apprehensive around new people, but it's coming.

I believe Gus will thrive in a CALM home with people who understand that trust is earned quietly and slowly, letting him move at his own pace. He thrives when he is around his person and only barks when kenneled and left alone during the day.

If you believe you have the gentle demeanor Gus needs to finish breaking out of his shell, he will make a fantastic companion!

History: Harbor is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome who is working on his trust and confidence and hopes to find his forever home soon!

Harbor has a Grade 3 Mitral valve murmur. Normal measurements. It is recommended every 6-12 month veterinary exams and Echocardiograms to check his heart.

A Note from the Foster: Harbor, also known as Harvey, has a gentle heart. In just a few weeks, he has come a long way. He loves to cuddle with our resident dog. He is also warming up to affection from people. If you don’t rush him, he will curl up next to you on the couch. Being petted seems new to him so we are careful to go at Harbor’s pace to help him feel less anxious. Because of this, he would probably do best in a home without small children. He does well with other dogs, even if he is a bit timid at first. He is learning to run, play, and walk on leash. Harbor would love to find a forever home where his humans will be patient with him as he learns that it is safe to relax and enjoy all of the good things that life holds for him. Harbor has a heart murmur which will require an annual check, but he does not have any restrictions.

He follows our bathroom routine with our dogs and has no accidents. When getting a bath he was very easy and you could see how much better he felt afterwards.  He is already just a sweatheart and you can tell he just wants someone to love and give him attention. The more we hug him, and take care of him the more you see his happiness.

History: 🧡 From Texas to Midwest 🤠—- A group of deserving dogs was recently welcomed as part of our Texas Transport Program! A program launched to make an impactful difference for our partner shelters in Texas facing the overpopulation of animals with limited resources and low adoption rates. We are excited to help these southern gems find loving forever homes to call their own!

A Note from the Foster: This dude is an A+ good boy.💯 Truly one of the easiest & most well-behaved dogs I have had around my house yet.👑

He is completely trustworthy to stay out of the kennel while we are away and/or sleeping. And in general I would add that he is quite a low energy guy.😴 He is perfectly content just lounging around near me, whether that be in the house🏡 or outside.🌳 Not to mention he is also completely potty trained & does not feel the need to mark when inside.🧻

He has been exposed to my three resident dogs & others along the way in his rescue journey & does very well with them🐕. He is pretty much indifferent, and coexists with ease, with everyone he meets. I think a home with OR without other dog friends would be absolutely suitable for him.

I do have to say… my most favorite thing about him is anytime I make eye contact with him, no matter where we are, whether outside or in… as soon as our eyes meet - instant tail wags. It MELTS my heart every time.🥹

All in all, I cannot say enough good things about this guy.❤️ He is the most perfect & loyal friend - 

someone is going to be really lucky to add him to their family.🥰

History: Hunder is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome and striking boy who is ready to meet his forever home soon!

A Note from the Foster: Hello!  I’m Hunder but my foster mama calls me Hunter, Buddy, and Little Man.

I am a 7 year old mini-poodle with the softest curly coat. Despite spending most of my life in a breeder environment, I am a happy boy who loves people and gets along great with my fellow foster. I know to take care of business outside which makes foster mama very happy! While I’m out there, I love to run around and explore the yard.  My little legs seem to go so fast!

I sleep quietly in my kennel overnight with just a minute of some vocals to make sure that’s where you really want me.  I keep my kennel clean overnight too. Plus, I get the cutest zoomies when you let me out in the morning!

I’m not very food motivated so it’s a good thing I’m smart and know the basics already.  I do great on a leash with no tugging. I haven’t shown much interest in the toys around me yet, but my foster sister is a great playmate, so I haven’t really needed any.

I love to get ear scratches and pets from my foster mama. I’m not too sure about this thing she calls snuggling. I think I just need time to get used to it.  I do like to be on her lap for the scratches and pets.

Small children have been over for visits.  I mostly just ignored them while they were here. I haven’t met any cats since I’ve been with Coco’s so we will see how I get along with them.

I am posted as a foster-to-adopt so you won’t have to wait for my neuter to be completed before bringing me home! While foster mama says I’ve been a great houseguest, I’d LOVE to find my forever family and settle into the good life!

History: Jack FKA Joe was recently returned to rescue due to no fault of his own. He has been settling into rescue and doing really well! He would love to find his home soon!

A Note from the Foster: Meet Jack, the 6-year-old cutie pie who is about to steal your heart! Jack is a Shiba Inu, and he lives up to the breed’s typical characteristics as an alert, independent, and affectionate guy! 

Alert 👀

Jack takes his neighborhood watch shifts very seriously! His favorite place in his foster home is on the couch, perched and ready to watch every incoming squirrel, bird, rabbit, blowing leaf - anything - that passes by! He’s alert and attentive to his foster family’s movements, following us around in the home and observing the resident dogs. Sometimes, his alertness can lead to a bit of anxiety, but with calm reassurance and a safe space within his crate, he is quickly soothed! He’s such a smart dog that he’ll often take himself right to his crate when he needs some time to relax. 

Anxiety for Jack can be curbed by finding an outlet for his alertness & energy through walks, play sessions, and little adventures. This guy would be a great hiking buddy -- just know that he miiiiggghttt get a little distracted by a squirrel! He may be wary of new people who enter your home at first, but once he knows that his people think these newbies are cool, he’ll be all in! He’s just a protective and loyal guy - what can he say! 

Independent 🐕

Shibas are strong-willed and independent dogs, and Jack is no different! He loves his quality time curled up in a comfy bed or his crate, just gnawing away at a Benebone. He’s happy to play by himself, but that doesn’t mean he won’t tell you all about it! Find him tussling around with a toy and letting out some famous Shiba “awoooos” to let you know how happy and excited he is to be playing! Shiba Inus are so independent; they’re also known to be sneaky little escape artists. Jack would do best with a family who will partake in outdoor play time with him, whether it’s in a fenced yard or always attached to a leash, so he doesn’t get distracted and sneak off to hunt a squirrel all alone!

Jack is a smarty pants, like most Shibas are, and though he benefits from his “me time,” he also loves to train and show off his tricks! A family who is willing to help him continue to learn and grow, or who will find him toys, puzzles, and fun things to do to challenge his smarty pants brain, will surely gain some kisses of appreciation from this handsome guy!

Affectionate ❤️

Don’t worry, just because this guy is a doggy introvert, it doesn’t mean he isn’t a loving boy! Jack loves to show love by giving his people (and his favorite dog friends) little gentle kisses to show you he cares. Once he gets comfortable with you, he might even spend his alone time near you! He makes a great parallel play buddy -- need someone to keep you company while you watch TV? Jack’s your guy; he’ll curl up peacefully in his bed nearby. Crocheting or playing video games? Jack will play with his toys right beside you! Shibas are loyal dogs who truly love and crave time with their people; they just do so on their own terms. Jack’s value of personal space, a clean kennel, and sweet kisses given to his favorite friends will make him a great companion for those who appreciate a subtle kind of affection.

History: Javi is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome and striking boy who is ready to meet his forever home soon!

A Note from the Foster: Let me introduce you to your dog’s new best friend! I say that because Javi unfortunately didn’t have the best start to his life. He spent it in the breeding world. Never sleeping in a place where he felt safe and loved, and told what a good boy he is. All of this is evident when you look into his sweet soulful eyes. He sees the other dogs getting pets and he wants to trust you, but he doesn’t know yet he is safe and it’s okay to come for pets. He will follow me around with the other dogs and will take treats from my hand though. He also enjoys running around the backyard with the other dogs though. That’s when I can see the twinkle in his eye and his playful side come out. I haven’t gotten any tail wags from him yet, but I know I can win him over eventually with love, time and patience.

Javi would do best in a home with another dog and a fenced backyard. He is still very afraid of leashes. So he needs the safety and protection of a fenced backyard still for now. I think he would also do best in a home with no children or older children that understand he doesn’t want to be pet yet. I see the potential in him and I know the right home will make all the difference. He wants to love and trust and be like all the other dogs, but just can’t do it quite yet.

History: We received a plea to help a group of male adult dogs from a local hoarding situation. It broke our hearts to see the condition the homeowner and dogs were living in. The dogs were welcomed to a temporary housing situation by a local rescuer when the homeowner was hospitalized. Unfortunately, the homeowner passed away days later. It is a heartbreaking situation and we promise to give these boys fulfilling and loving lives. They are working on their trust and confidence and doing better each day!

A Note from the Foster: Jeeves came from a difficult past and is now learning that people can be kind and safe. Each day, his trust continues to grow, and it’s incredibly rewarding to watch him come out of his shell.

He absolutely loves other dogs, enjoys going for walks, and is highly food-motivated, which makes bonding and training both fun and rewarding. Jeeves has no aggression whatsoever—he’s simply a bit timid with people at first.

He’s full of personality. He makes the sweetest little whines to communicate, loves to roll around, and has the softest hair you can imagine. When he’s not out exploring or socializing, Jeeves is perfectly content to nap the day away, happily recharging for his next adventure.

Jeeves does not enjoy being kenneled and would thrive in a home where he has freedom, comfort, and patience as he continues to adjust. At night, he sleeps peacefully on his bed in my bedroom and settles in beautifully.

With love, consistency, and understanding, Jeeves will make a truly wonderful companion for someone ready to give him the second chance he so deserves. 🐾💙

A Note from the Foster: Jelly Rolls is a handsome and happy boy who loves being around people...I mean look at those wrinkles and those sweet brown eyes. He has made incredible progress in less than a week with his foster family, revealing a calm nature. He loves outside time and will make himself comfortable laying in the shade. You'll know you have a companion nearby when you hear his adorable hummingbird sound as he breaths; he'll often be your shadow if you are up and about. 

He is big marker now, but that should improve once he is neutered. He does wear a belly band most of the time and gives you no trouble putting it on or keeping it on. He also is a good boy about being in his kennel and sleeps through the night.

He loves belly rubs and immediately upon petting roles on his belly. Given his love of the outdoors, he loves walks and is really good on a leash.

All in all, Jelly Rolls is a great pug whose good nature, easygoing attitude, and trademark hum will make a wonderful addition to a forever home! He will be that loyal companion!

History: Lagoon is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome and striking boy who is ready to meet his forever home soon!

A Note from the Foster: Meet Lagoon!

He's an adorable little fluff nugget with the sweetest personality.  He can be a bit timid but warms up quickly.  Lagoon loves other dogs and is often seen trotting happily after my two resident dogs.  He loves attention and snuggles and pounces playfully at my feet.  With his tiny stature, he also likes to get a better view by standing up on his back legs to make himself taller as he scopes things out.

Lagoon is currently kenneled at night and when I'm gone and does well.  I'm sure he would also be happy to sleep in bed with you.  He does his business outside consistently, but his one area for improvement is that he also marks often inside.  (He's affectionately earned the nickname Sir Marks A Lot.)  With his younger age, there's a chance that will improve after his neuter, but there's no guarantee.  We have not ventured out for leash walks yet as I've been giving him time to settle in.  Soon, though, we'll try some walks and he'll get to go on a field trip to watch my nieces play ball.  He does great riding in the car in a kennel for safety.

Lagoon melts hearts wherever he goes.  He brought so much joy to the residents during our Senior Buddies visit, and also at another senior living community.   If you're looking for a darling little companion that will keep you smiling and giggling with his antics, Lagoon just may be your guy!

History: 🧡 From Texas to Midwest 🤠—- A group of deserving dogs was recently welcomed as part of our Texas Transport Program! A program launched to make an impactful difference for our partner shelters in Texas facing the overpopulation of animals with limited resources and low adoption rates. We are excited to help these southern gems find loving forever homes to call their own!

A Note from the Foster: Larry is a 8 year old bulldog mix from Texas. He's completely housetrained and takes plenty of naps. Sleeps 10 hours at a time and has had no issues here at the house. If you're looking for a speed bump or door stop that only needs a 50 foot walk to take care of business Larry is your guy.

He's a sweet boy he really is!

He does have some medical issues the team is trying to sort out like his cherry eye.

A house with out too many stairs would be ideal as he's probably blind in one eye and his short legs make coming down my stairs difficult though he succeds every time.

I hope he can find a nice chill forever home.

History: Little Kevin is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome who is working on his trust and confidence and hopes to find his forever home soon!

A Note from the Foster: Meet Little Kevin 🐾 — a charming Pomeranian that is ready to be the little prince of your life!

Little Kevin is a 3-year-old Pomeranian from a breeder release who is loving the home life. He is very quiet but has a big personality and is a very sweet little guy.

He loves people, other dogs and kids. He is starting to play with toys and loves hanging out with a human on your lap. He rarely barks and is very curious about what you are up to.

He does not do well in his kennel, (more common for breeder release dogs), but sleeps fantastic through the night in a bed. He loves being held, being petted, cuddles, and chilling on the couch or in his doggie bed. He would do great in a home with other dogs but would also be happy being your only dog.

He is marking a bit now, but that should improve once he is neutered. He does wear a belly band most of the time and gives you no trouble putting it on or keeping it on. He has beautiful orange fur and likes being brushed and pampered.

He’s still learning how to walk on a leash outside He likes walking at his own pace but doesn’t need to go far. He is still learning how to potty train but doing great. He has mastered going up and stairs and stays out of trouble on his own. He takes his time eating his food ( one piece at a time) and loves little treats.

Little Kevin will make a great addition to home or apartment and is easy enough for a 1st time owner or a senior.

History: Lloyd was recently welcomed to rescue when went unclaimed at a local impound. They now have a home here at CHDR until they find a family of their very own soon!

A Note from the Foster: Oh my stars! Just look at this face! This gentle giant is quickly learning how to be the star of his own show! This is why Lloyd has tried on a few stars’ names while staying with us including: Scooby Doo, Scoobs, Marmaduke, and Biggie (Smalls). We have quickly realized, it doesn’t matter what we call this sweet boy, if there is any chance of a snack he is there! He is a huge fan of treats… ok, all food. Although food motivated, he has not shown any guarding behaviors and is doing a great job learning manners. He was pretty thin when he came to rescue and has been steadily gaining weight. His forever family needs to be ok with sloppy kisses and shakes and keep a jowl towel ready! Keeping Lloyd downstairs while the humans cook and eat upstairs has been helpful at keeping the drool at bay. He did not understand any commands when he first came to our family, but he has already learned sit, gentle, and out. We can tell Lloyd is a smart fella and with patience and practice from his forever family, he is going to shine. Speaking of shine- do you see the shine in those eyes? He has the most beautiful golden honey eyes. He came to us with cherry eye in that left eye and had surgery to remove it when he was fixed. He is currently completing heartworm treatment (last treatment 5/13). He is such a snuggly boy! He has quickly learned about all the softest spots at his foster home and can regularly be found sitting awkwardly on the couch. Lloyd already seems fiercely loyal, especially to his foster mama. He does great with kids and with our resident dog, a male mastiff/boxer. However, Lloyd is big, goofy, and pretty clumsy… I would be concerned about him accidentally knocking over someone unsteady on their feet or toddlers and small children. He is a scaredy cat- balloons, fresh cut flowers, orchids, and curtains that blow in the wind are all scary … “0/10…not a fan... balloons are totally unpredictable,” says Lloyd. Although Lloyd does well in a car, getting him in a car can be a challenge. With some practice and patience, we believe he could be a great travel companion. He seems all mastiff in both his handsome looks and charm, although we don’t know anything about his history. He is a fantastic work from home companion and spends most of the day lounging at his humans’ feet. He has a bit of separation anxiety, so a human who works from home would be ideal! He also would love a fur sibling or two, someone who can help him as he continues to learn how to ‘dog.’ Although he doesn’t do well in a crate, he does well on a leash and is completely potty trained. He has slowly but surely started playing with balls and toys. It has been an absolute joy to watch him come out of his shell and start to have fun with his foster brother! He is the goodest boy, a true gentle giant, and he is so excited to meet his forever family! He hopes his human or family will love long naps and snuggles and that he can continue to be the star of the show… oh, and no balloons!

A Note from the Foster: Melville is settling in nicely and is ready for his forever home! He is neutered and up to date on his medical appointments.

He has shown a lot of improvement the past month! He’s getting really good about going to the bathroom outside now and is a great eater - loves treats and cheese! He sleeps in his kennel at night or in the dog bed nearby just fine and naps in and out of the kennel during the day. He even knows a few commands which makes it easy to get him on a leash to walk outside!

He likes to be close by but on his own terms! He enjoys following my resident dogs around outside; he likes to sleep near me when I work from home. He gets the zoomies and loves playing with a tennis ball at times. 

He has not had any issues with my two bigger resident dogs.

A Note from the Foster: He is just a sweet little guy who is getting used to everything right now.

He is currently working on his potty training and is doing well with using puppy pads. While he likes his kennel, he also loves to lay in bed with his human. He is still getting used to receiving affection, so he can be a little scared at first, but once he's comfortable, he just melts into you. He also loves having a cozy blanket to rest on while you work.

We have started taking short, quiet walks so he can get all of his sniffs in. He is still trying to understand the concept of squeaky toys and treats.  He also loves to follow me around the house to make sure I’m getting all my chores done.

Mr Malt will be a loving and loyal companion. I believe he would do well in a home with a resident dog who can help show him the ropes.

Cat Friendly: Unknown
Kid Friendly: Yes
House Trained: Doing great!

History: We recently welcomed a group of adult Wheaten Terriers who were being released from a commercial breeding program after the program was selling out. It is a big feat for these and any future wheatens that would have been produced from this program.

The ones who came to CHDR are doing well in their foster homes but very shut down and timid yet. They will thrive with patient and confident adopters who are willing to put the time into growing a bond with their new dog as it may take some time to develop but these dogs are SO SO worth it. They are amazing souls who each deserve their forever home!

A Note from the Foster: Murphy is a sweet Wheaten Terrier who needs a patient and understanding forever home. He is only 4 years old but hasn't yet discovered the love humans can provide him. He was released from a breeder background in extremely poor condition. Despite his life thus far, he remains curious, yet cautious,about trusting humans and making sense of this new world outside of a crate. He is already making great progress with his foster family, but will need continued help and patience to learn to trust new people and situations. He does well in his crate overnight and with a consistent schedule for potty breaks. 

Murphy is taking cues from his foster brother, and may benefit from having another calm canine companion in the home. Murphy has done well with other dogs and enjoys their company, even searching for the source when he hears another dog barking. Unfamiliar noises may startle him but he actually prefers to hear voices and that people are around. His foster home has two young boys who make plenty of noise and he is mostly unbothered by this. He is still quite skittish and timid. 

Murphy enjoys his fenced backyard because it gives him room to explore within a boundary (and he loves rubbing up on the chain link fence to get some good scratches in!) He had a blast bounding through the fresh snow, rolling in it and "snow snorkeling"!  He is a potential flight risk because of his uncertainty with his new found freedom. His ideal forever home is somewhere he can learn to just be a dog with someone who sees his potential and how much love he has to offer in return!

History: Nemo is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome and striking boy who is ready to meet his forever home soon!

A Note from the Foster: Meet Nemo!

This special little guy is 7 years old and has been making so much progress over these four weeks with his foster family! He loves their resident cairn terrier and is learning the ropes from her. He alerts them when he needs to poop, but marking is still a work in progress. He wears belly bands without issue and they hope neutering will help. 

He is starting to really enjoy sofa snuggles, outside time, and treats. Still timid when people approach to pet but enjoys being pet once he knows you. He learns commands quickly and makes us smile with his goofiness at times.

He recently learned how fun walks can be and is rapidly figuring out how to walk on a leash. He has learned how to jump up on the sofa and is slowly figuring out stairs. At night he stays calmly in a bed in our room.

He has shown no aggression with three different dogs. No data on how he does with cats or kids but there hasn’t been one sign of aggression from him so likely he’d be fine.

History: Pawblano Popper is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome who is working on his trust and confidence and hopes to find his forever home soon!

A Note from the Foster: Hi friends! My name is Pawblano Popper, but my foster family calls me Pablo for short. 

I’m a tiny little guy with a big personality that’s still starting to shine as I settle into my new life. I can be pretty shy at first, but every day I get a little more comfortable and curious about the world around me.

Most of my days right now are spent wandering around the house, finding cozy places to lay down, relaxing near my people (but not too close yet), and catching up on lots of rest. My crate is my safe space, I sleep through the night in there and will often choose to hang out in there during the day, too.

I’m also beginning to discover toys! I’ve picked up a few dog toys here and there, and my foster family thinks I’ll become more playful as I continue adjusting to a calmer, happier life. I really enjoy being around the resident dog as well. I don’t really play yet, but I seem comforted having another pup nearby.

I have the sweetest little howl that I like to show off every now and then. It’s quiet, adorable, and sounds more like a tiny song than a bark. My foster family says it’s one of the cutest things about me.

The outside world is still very new and scary to me. Going outside and walking on a leash has been hard so far, and I tend to freeze up and get nervous. My foster family is helping me slowly build confidence and learn that outside can be safe. Right now, I’m using wee wee pads and doggy diapers while I continue working on leash skills and potty routines.

I’m also learning that being picked up and handled can be safe and gentle. I’m still a little fearful sometimes, but I’m already making progress and getting more comfortable each day.

Because I didn’t receive the care I needed earlier in life, I have a few medical things that are being addressed now, including a heart murmur and some other minor health concerns. My rescuers and foster family are making sure I get the care and love I deserve so I can continue feeling better and healthier.

What I really need is a patient, loving home that will let me continue coming out of my shell at my own pace. I may be shy at first, but there’s a sweet, funny little dog in here who is ready to blossom with the right family.

Love,
Pablo 🐾

Gender: Male
Breed: Shih Tzu
Age: DOB: 09/2020

Cat Friendly: Unknown

House Trained: Doing great!

History: Pawpaw is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome and striking boy who is ready to meet his forever home soon!

A Note from the Foster: Paw Paw is a sweet little 5-year old Shih Tzu with the softest silky coat and big brown eyes that will absolutely melt your heart.

Pawpaw is the perfect mix of playful and cuddly.  He loves carrying around and playing with his toys, but is very surprised and a jumps back when they squeak. He does great with other dogs and will wait patiently until it is his time to eat or get treats.

He’s a quiet boy with very little barking and has a calm, gentle presence in the home.  He isn’t very happy sleeping in his kennel at night, so he has been sleeping in bed with us and absolutely loves it.  He lays right down and sleeps quietly and peacefully all night.

Pawpaw infrequently marks indoors, but this should improve once he is neutered.  He’s very easygoing about wearing belly bands and lets you put them on without any fuss.

If you’re looking for a loving companion with a sweet personality, adorable soulful eyes, and lots of affection to give, Teddy is your perfect match.

History: Pedginsky is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome who is working on his trust and confidence and hopes to find his forever home soon!

A Note from the Foster: Pedginsky, whom we call Ginsky or Gin for short, is a shy, gentle guy who is still learning what it means to live a “normal” dog life. He’s a work‑in‑progress pup who will need a patient, understanding family willing to let him move at his own pace.

Pedginsky is building his confidence day by day. He’ll come close for treats and enjoys being near his people, but he isn’t comfortable with hands-on affection yet and does not like being held. He startles easily, especially with unexpected noises, and will retreat to safety when he feels unsure. Because of this, he does best with calm, predictable routines.

Pedginsky is currently working on house training and is doing best with supervision and consistency. Outside, he enjoys following his person around the fenced yard, though sudden sounds can spook him and send him back toward the door. He is not a bold explorer yet, but he getting braver each day.

Inside the house, he has a puppy pen that serves as his safe space. Even with the door open, he often chooses to relax there, which shows how important having a designated “comfort zone” is for him.

He gets along well with other dogs and would truly benefit from living with a confident, friendly canine companion who can help show him the ropes and boost his confidence.

Pedginsky is looking for a patient, dog‑savvy home that understands shy dogs and will celebrate small wins. He may not be the dog who runs up for cuddles right away, but for the right family, earning his trust will be incredibly rewarding.

Note: Pedginsky's neuter surgery and dental cleaning is scheduled for May 15th and he'll be ready to join his forever family a few days after that.

A Note from the Foster: Premium is a breeder release dog, but he is really warming up to the good life! He’s cheerful and spunky and so sweet! He came in with eyes and ears needing help, and after treatment for both, his sight seems ok, and his hearing is great; he comes to a whistle! 

He has mastered going down steps but not up yet, we are working on that. He’s also working on potty training, and almost there. He walks pretty well on a leash. 

He’s very handsome with his big feet and lots of wrinkles on his face! 

He can be kenneled, he’s quiet while in there, although he does sleep in bed with me and my other pug Bobbie. 

I have never heard him bark. 

This is a wonderful little dog, and whoever gets him is a winner!

History: Reggie Ray is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome and striking boy who is ready to meet his forever home soon!

A Note from the Foster: Reggie Ray is a charming 5-year old pug who is learning to lean in and enjoy the comfortable parts of life. As a former breeder dog, Reggie is still learning about all of the typical “dog” things, but he’s building confidence and comfort with the spoiled life each day. A guy who started out shaking in the back of his kennel when his foster parents approached, to a dog who wiggles his whole body each morning just dying for his kennel gate to be opened.

Reggie Ray has the cutest, snorty little personality. He’s a curious guy who is taking his time exploring his foster home and getting to know all of the cozy corners and funny noises. Reggie is a sniff connoisseur -- he loves to travel around the entire backyard and find all of the good sniffs of the day! Most days, Reggie spends a good chunk of time playing with toys, exploring his foster home, and playing in the yard with his foster dog siblings!  Reggie Ray would definitely benefit from having another confident dog in the house to show him all of the finer things in life. 

Reggie Ray loves his crate and views it as his safe space -- he loves to cozy up inside, eat a snack, or lounge and watch his foster family go about their day from his cozy castle. He sleeps well in his kennel and keeps it clean whenever he’s inside of it! Reggie Ray is doing well with structured and consistent potty breaks, but will need further consistency to reach 100% and take on the title of a potty-trained guy. Reg is still working on confidence building, so leash skills and basic obedience have yet to be tackled, but his foster family is confident that he’ll continue to make small, bouncy-pug leaps of progress each day! 

Sweet Reggie communicates through the cutest little pug snorts & grunts, and it’s easy to know how he’s feeling. He’s at his happiest when you can see his tail in a perfect little curly swirl! A perfect family for Reg includes folks who are willing to help him learn that he is safe & loved and who will be patient while showing him that he deserves to take up space within a home. With consistency, care, and a watchful & loving eye, Reggie will continue to blossom into a dog who can definitely learn new tricks!

History: Our Out of the Cold Rescue Effort was a great success in welcoming over 180+ animals to rescue from rural areas in North Dakota before the cold set in. These animals are all so deserving and thankful to get a second chance in finding a forever home of their own!

A Note from the Foster: Hi, I'm Reuben! When I arrived at Coco's Heart my name was "JugHead" so I may not respond right away to my new name. I love to snuggle on couches while binge-watching shows. When I'm not letting you know that I need snuggles, I enjoy keeping an eye on things happening outside the window. I'm a pretty chill guy and don't really bark or jump up. You can even make me wear ugly sweaters that are slightly too tight for me. I might whine a little and will definitely wag my tail and scratch at the door if we're getting ready to go on a walk. I love walks and could use some help not pulling on the leash, but I'm not stubborn about it. Loud and fast cars make me a little nervous, so I stay pretty cautious on sidewalks next to busy streets. I am REALLY good at going potty outside and I'm not super interested in any kind of treat or toy UNLESS it's a pill pocket. Pill pockets are the best! I leave shoes alone and don't really go for anything that's just for humans. I have good self-awareness of my size unless I'm ready to sprawl on your lap and make sure you stay put until my required snuggle needs have been met. I'm not sure how I feel about other dogs or cats, but I'm pretty easy going around humans regardless of their age. Since I'm such a big guy I am taking some vitamins for arthritis in one of my legs. My head is huge and I'm excited to meet the human that is ready for me to bury it in their lap. All the time.

Cat Friendly: Unknown

History: Sauvi is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome and striking boy who is ready to meet his forever home soon!

A Note from the Foster: Meet Sauvi - a sweet soul discovering the world for the very first time. 

At 5 years old, this darling Bichon boy is beginning his second chance after life as a breeder dog, and watching him blossom has been truly special. 

Sauvi is still learning that humans can be kind. While he may be a little unsure of new people at first, he has opened his heart to his foster mom and now follows her around with quiet trust and gentle affection. 

One thing Sauvi knows for sure? Outside is the best place ever. Whether he's soaking up fresh air, exploring the yard, or simply sitting by the fence watching the world go by. After spending so much of his life surrounded by kennel walls, you can almost see him taking it all in - the birds, the breeze, the simple joy of freedom.

He's also discovering how to dog for the first time. Toys are a brand-new concept, but he's starting to understand that chasing balls is actually pretty fun. He loves his squeaky toys!

Sauvi gets along beautifully with other dogs and would likely love a canine friend to help show him the rope. He's making wonderful progress with a consistent potty schedule and thrives with patience,  routine, and kindness.

He's spent enough of his life watching the world from behind kennel walls. Now, Sauvi is ready to finally be a part of it.

Bonus: Did you know Bichons are hypoallergenic and rarely shed. They make great dogs for allergy suffers.

History: Shiro is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome who is working on his trust and confidence and hopes to find his forever home soon!

A Note from the Foster: Meet Shiro — pronounced “Shee-roh,” which means “white” in Japanese — a beautiful 2-year-old male Bichon Frisé with soft white curls and an even softer heart. At just 13 pounds, Shiro is a gentle little soul looking for a patient and loving home where he can continue learning that the world is a safe place.

Shiro was rescued from the commercial breeding industry and is experiencing many everyday things for the very first time. While he is naturally shy and timid, he is also incredibly sweet and trying very hard to be brave. In just a few short weeks in foster care, he has already made amazing progress and continues to gain confidence every day.

One of his favorite things to do is take walks where he can see and smell the world. He would love a family that would take even longer walks than his foster mom can. He does well with potty training on a schedule and is quiet in his crate at night. When foster mom is gone he shares a pen with his foster brother. Shiro is a quick learner, especially when treats are involved — chicken is his favorite! He also takes a daily anxiety medication like a champ every 8 hours with a little canned food, peanut butter, or cheese.

Because so much is still new to him, Shiro can be startled by loud noises, sudden movements, busy environments, and unfamiliar people. He’s curious, though, and learning that everyday household things aren’t scary after all. He does great with stairs, decided that dog beds are wonderful, likes to cuddle on the couch, and is starting to play with toys. With time and patience, his confidence will continue to grow.

Shiro truly enjoys the company of other dogs and would do best in a home with another calm yet playful and confident dog who can help show him the ropes. He is living with two cats, and has not spent much time around young children. Due to his sensitive nature, he would thrive in a calm home without small children, or with older, respectful kids who understand how to give him space.

His ideal family will be patient, gentle, and committed to helping him continue building trust and learning basic life skills at his own pace. A family who is home much of the time would be a bonus. In return, Shiro will reward them with quiet companionship, sweet affection, and the joy of watching him blossom into the happy dog he was always meant to be.

Shiro will require daily brushing to maintain his beautiful curly coat and professional grooming every 4–6 weeks. Most importantly, he needs a calm environment, daily exercise, a steady routine, and kindhearted people willing to go slow and let him shine.

History: Silas is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome and striking boy who is ready to meet his forever home soon!

A Note from the Foster: Meet Silas ✨ — a 3-year-old Mini Poodle with a playful personality and a curious spirit who is just starting to discover how wonderful life in a home can be.

At around 3 years old, Silas is still learning the routines of being a beloved house pup. He is currently working on potty training and doing well with consistency, but like many dogs adjusting to a new environment, he may still have occasional accidents as he continues to learn.

Silas is also working on leash training and is getting more comfortable exploring the world one step at a time. He enjoys walks and sniffing around, taking in all the sights and smells that come with his new adventures.

If Silas had it his way, playtime would be on the schedule every day! He absolutely loves being around other dogs and will happily bark to let them know he’s ready to play. His playful energy makes him a great match for a home with another friendly dog who enjoys a good game of chase or wrestling.

Even though he loves to play, Silas also has a sweet and affectionate side. He is a bit nervous at first, but is learning people are safe and is starting to give little kisses here and there.

Because Silas is a poodle, he will need regular grooming every 4–8 weeks to keep his curly coat looking and feeling its best.

Silas is looking for a patient and loving home that will continue helping him build confidence as he learns the routines of family life. With time, consistency, and lots of love, he will blossom into a loyal and joyful companion.

If you’re looking for a playful, sweet, and spirited little poodle to share your life with, Silas might just be the perfect match for you.

History: Tomski is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome who is working on his trust and confidence and hopes to find his forever home soon!

A Note from the Foster: Say hi to Tomski! He’s a sweet 3 year old Pomsky!

Tomski is a super sweet guy who is a big fan of walks and snuggles on the couch. 

Family life is new to him, but Tomski has come a long way in settling in. He’s never too far from us during the day, he really likes to be near his pack. He also seems to spark to other dogs and would do well in a home with another canine buddy around. Young kids, however, are a little too fast and noisy for his taste right now.

He’s learning the basics, does well in his crate, and is generally potty trained if he’s taken out fairly regularly. He has had some marking issues when first introduced to the other animals in our home. But it’s improved a lot and something we’ll continue to work on. He’s fairly quiet and doesn’t really bark. 

If you want a loyal little pal who just needs patience, routine, and a dog friend to follow, Tomski is your guy.

History: Trig is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome and striking boy who is ready to meet his forever home soon!

A Note from the Foster:Here is Trig! Trig has been in his foster home since March 2026. He has grown into sweet, playful little guy that enjoys life. He is a bit shy when first meeting new people, but he warms up quickly. He loves people, children, dogs, walks, and car rides. He is curious about everything and everybody...and is a treat hound! He dances for his treats and is so happy when he gets one. 

Trig enjoys the good life and prefers to sleep on a comfy dog bed close to his foster and foster dog siblings. Due to Trig's background, he is vocal when kenneled now that he knows how great it is to be loved. When not kenneled he is quiet and only barks when the other dogs bark. He loves his stuffies and chew toys. Trig loves a warm lap to curl up on or lay beside. His curiosity gets to him, and he will sneak papers, socks, and the contents of garbage cans, just to see what it is and if it makes noise. 

Trig is house trained and sleeps through the night. When he is left home, Trig has had no accidents for up to four hours. He knows basic commands and seems to want to learn, especially is a treat is involved. He would do well in loving home whether there are other dogs and/or kids or just a single occupied home. He has not been exposed to cats, but his foster believes with proper introductions, Trig would do well with them.

Trig is a ten-pound bundle of love, curiosity, and cuddles that is looking to find his forever home. Could that be you?

Dog Friendly: Yes

Kid Friendly: Unknown
House Trained: Doing great!

History: Wade is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome who is working on his trust and confidence and hopes to find his forever home soon!

A Note from the Foster: This little guy is just plain sweet.  Wade is really starting to come out of his shell and blossom!  He has gone from not wanting to come out of his kennel to learning to dance hop and play.  He decided he really likes this indoor house living, with comfy chairs, sofas and blankets. But once he gets outside it is all sniffing.  He loves to put his nose to the ground and smell what the word has to offer.  

He is very curious and wants to know what everyone is doing but still a little shy.  He likes to show off his voice if he’s scared or wants you to pet him and you are not in the room.  He’s learning that being pet and loved is awesome and he wants more of that!

He is wonderful in his kennel and has never had an accident there.  He is working on potty training and doing great but still wears a bellyband because he gets free access to the house and it prevents accidents.  

Wade would thrive in a home where he can get lots of love and attention while he works on his confidence.  He would fit in probably any environment, but he’s a little delicate so maybe a house with older children would be better at this time for him. He is just a loving little guy that anyone would be lucky to have.

Cat Friendly: Unknown
Kid Friendly: Yes
House Trained: Doing great!

History: Wemby is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome and striking boy who is ready to meet his forever home soon!

A Note from the Foster: Meet Wemby, your new shadow with a heart of gold. This sweet 7-year old Shih Tzu is the definition of a gentle soul. He’s a quiet little guy who finds his happiness in the simple things – following his person from room to room, curling up beside you on the couch, and being close to the people he trusts.

He walks nicely on a leash (with the cutest little wiggle that will make you smile every time) and is catching on quickly with potty training – he’s trying hard to be the best boy he can be! He is a a big marker now, but that should improve once he is neutered. He does wear a belly band and gives you no trouble putting it on or keeping it on. As a bonus, he doesn’t shed, making him an easy companion to keep your home tidy.

At night, he sleeps peacefully in his crate, occasionally treating you to the softest, most endearing little snores. He gets along just fine with other dogs, but his true love is human companionship. He does well around children and is comfortable sharing space with them. That said, when things get loud or busy, he prefers to quietly step back and observe from distance. Because of his sensitive nature, he would do best in a calm, quieter home where he can feel safe and secure.

If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will quietly adore you, stay close by your side, and bring a little extra sweetness (and wiggle!) into your life, Wemby might just be your perfect match.

A Note from the Foster: Sweet Wilfred! He is a very sweet boy who unfortunately didn't have the easiest start to life. He was very scared when he first came into my home. Sitting in his kennel and just shaking when I approached. It breaks your heart to see. He isn't cowering in his cage anymore and continues to come out of his shell a little more each day. He likes to still have his safe space he knows he can go to and would need that security in his forever home. His tail wags and smiles I get from him now are the absolute best though! He is still nervous about being petted, but he is very interested in me and I know with a little more time and patience he will LOVE getting pets and lovings. He does fine with the other dogs in my home. He isn't very interested in playing with them as of yet, but he would be fine with another dog in the home. This sweet boy is going to make the best companion to some lucky family!

History: Woodford is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome and striking boy who is ready to meet his forever home soon!

A Note from the Foster: Woodford is a gentle soul with a heart that's still learning how to trust. This sweet, shy boy has been through more than any dog should, and because of that, the world can feel a little scary to him at times.

Every day, though, Woodford is making progress. He's discovering that walks are fun, the outdoors can be exciting, and toys are actually pretty great. Watching him experience these simple joys for the first time is incredibly rewarding.

Woodford is still cautious around new people and needs time to feel safe. He's not the kind of dog who will run up to greet strangers right away—but for the patient person willing to let him move at his own pace, he'll show you just how special he is.

He's doing wonderfully with his routine, sleeping quietly through the night in his kennel and going potty outside like a champ.

What Woodford needs most is a forever home filled with patience, kindness, and understanding. A family willing to show him that not all people are scary and that love can be unconditional. In return, you'll get the privilege of watching a brave dog blossom into the companion he was always meant to be.

History: Zipper is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome and striking boy who is ready to meet his forever home soon!

A Note from the Foster: Zipper is a 15-pound, Bichon breeder release. He has had a challenging start at life, including a recent case of kennel cough and a double ear infection (he has recovered from both), but you can’t tell based on his sweet personality. When I first picked him up, he was very fearful of the world. Each day though, he comes a little bit more out of his shell. He has become comfortable in my house, and I can see the typical Bichon-like, happy personality coming through. He is happy whenever he can be with his people (or other dogs) in a safe space. His laid-back personality makes him easy to take care of, and he seems grateful to be in a home environment. He is learning how to play with other dogs, and likes to follow them around. I’ve included a few pics of him with Coco’s Heart alum, Buddy, who he adores. He is also happy to sleep on the couch or on his dog bed. He doesn’t bark much, but is nervous in his crate. We are working on potty training. He wears a belly band, as he does have problems with marking. This should improve after he gets neutered. He is comfortable going out to go potty in the yard and has been very slowly interested in exploring the world outside.
