COCO - JACK RUSSELL TERRIER / LABRADOR RETRIEVER / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Jack Russell Terrier / Labrador Retriever / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: 600. Meet Coco: A Big Heart in a Little, Wiggly Package Coco is a lovable Jack Russell mix puppy with a whole lot of personality packed into a small, adorable body. He’s a friendly, curious little guy who approaches life with enthusiasm and heart. New toys are his absolute favorite—he proudly carries them around like prized treasures and is always ready for playtime. Coco loves being outdoors, whether he’s following you around the yard, exploring his surroundings, or simply soaking up the sunshine. He’s very playful and enjoys playing with his foster brother, entertaining himself with toys, or engaging with his people. Despite his playful energy, he’s incredibly gentle and has a super sweet side—he truly loves to cuddle. When Coco first arrived, he was a bit shy, but he warms up quickly and forms bonds fast. He’s smart and eager to learn, doing wonderfully with both leash and potty training. In fact, the only accidents he had were on his very first day after transport—he hasn’t had any since. He does great in a kennel and sleeps through the night without any issues. Coco is respectful and easygoing with other animals. He has no issues with the barn cat—he’ll sniff and show interest, clearly hoping to make a feline friend. Horses are still a mystery to him, and while he’s a little unsure, he shows no aggression at all—just cautious curiosity, likely because he’s never seen one before. With his affectionate nature, gentle demeanor, and joyful puppy spirit, Coco would be a wonderful addition to a family ready to give him the love, attention, and fun he deserves. Smart, sweet, playful, and cuddly, Coco is ready to start his next adventure—could it be with you? Coco is from Texas.
