and support the little stores:) Coconut is a puppy in a 5 yr old body! Love her! Save her today!! OWNER DIED:( in Shelter NYC foster mom writes: Coco is the most loving dog I have met. She can’t contain her excitement when she meets new people or sees old friends - tail waging, smiling and hugs/kisses. She has had a rough month given her owner died and she spent two weeks in a shelter. She has been well behaved in house from the start– completely bathroom trained, no eating aggression, wears all leashes and harnesses. She does become anxious with too much stimuli when taken outside. She has barked and lunged at other dogs in the street or had threatening body language towards walkers/skateboarders, ut she has not physically made contact with anyone on street, and we are working on redirecting her when she sees other dogs. She’s a great running buddy – will match your pace. She doesn’t care too much for treats, but loves any attention. Coco will immediately make it her duty to love and protect anyone she lives with. COCO 5y yr old female Labrador Pit mix, hence the name Labritti, very soft face –50lbs –originally a Stray, – dropped off at precinct, adopted and then her owner died:((( Good w/ big dogs she knows so slow intro is advised, NO small animals or children, best in a country setting. If you are looking for a watch pup, she's your girl. A volunteer writes: Coconut, our all white pitti, is a stunning solid white girl except for her ears which have a couple of polka dot spots on her ears. Jackson Pollack at work perhaps? Coco is a fun loving, affectionate little girl. She loves to play and pranced her way through the park trying to engage all we met. Her tail never stops wagging and wags even harder when she sees kids. Or, maybe it was the ball they were playing with? Nonetheless, this little girl wants to play and have fun and invites all to participate in her joy of life. She is super affectionate, sits on command, takes treats so gently and is a wonderful partner to walk with as she simply wants to meet everyone she sees. She is housetrained--Meet Coco , share in her joy at simply being alive, and you will wonder how you made it this long without this extraordinary little girl by your side.
