Coco (aka Coco Puff) might be the loving girl you’ve been searching for. Coco is an 11-year-old Dachshund mix, with a heart full of love and a gentle soul. This beautiful, black-coated lady weighs about 20 lbs and came to Little Paws when her owner was going through a life-changing event and couldn’t care for all her dogs. Despite the huge changes in her life, Coco remains an optimistic and affectionate companion. Environment Coco is a medium-energy girl who enjoys short walks and playtime but is equally content relaxing at home. She’d appreciate a fenced yard to explore safely, though it’s not necessary. This sweet girl is very independent and does wonderfully when left alone—she’s perfectly content to entertain herself. Coco is working on her leash manners and she doesn’t always pull. She likes to lead unless she gets excited and sees another dog or person to say hello. She will let you know when she must go outside. Pee pads are used when left alone & overnight. She doesn’t need crate training as she’s perfectly content and well-behaved with free access to the house. Pets & People Coco is a social butterfly who loves meeting new people on walks and greeting guests in the home. She’s never shown aggression and is always curious to say hello to strangers. With other dogs, she’s generally wonderful, though she may occasionally grumble if surprised when she’s settled comfortably on the couch—she just likes her personal space respected! She’s good with food and treats, eating quickly but taking treats gently when reminded to be “nice.” Health Coco is diabetic and requires insulin shots twice daily. With proper management, diabetic dogs can live full, happy lives, and Coco is proof of that! She’ll just need an adopter committed to her medical routine and regular vet care. Location Coco is available for adoption from Baltimore, MD. Please email megs0567gmail with any questions or complete an adoption application at the button above. The adoption fee for Coco is $250.00
