Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi, I’m Coco Pebbles, but you can call me Coco! I’m a two-year-old female chihuahua, fully vetted, vaccinated, neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date on heartworm medication. I’m a real survivor, ready to put my troubles behind me and live my best life! Care to join me?
My journey began with some major trauma when I was purposely thrown from a car. I was taken to a shelter where, because of my facial fractures and injuries, I was put on the euthanization list. Thankfully, Chihuahua Rescue and Transport did what they do best–rescued me and put me in a loving foster home where I got the care I needed. Now I am all healed up and ready for the next step, my forever home!
You can understand why I might be a bit fearful in new situations, but once I get to know you, I am very loyal and a bit of a mama’s girl! I get along fine with other dogs, although I might give them a warning growl if they get too close to my special human. I require quiet, gentle play, so kids or rough dogs are off-limits. I love to be held and give kisses and to sleep in bed with my family. During the day, I enjoy making myself a little tent out of a blanket where I can sleep and keep an eye on my surroundings. I’m potty trained as long as I keep to a schedule of outside trips every three to four hours.
I have a couple of special needs you should know. First, I’ll need a securely fenced yard, since I am quick to race to an opened door. I also am a very picky eater, so I’ll need a human who is willing to spend extra time and energy on my meals. My tastes change frequently, so a dog food I once enjoyed may lose my interest in a few days. My foster mom often mixes my dog food with Cream of Wheat or Farina, which I love! I also don’t like to eat alone, so my new human may need to sit with me while I’m eating.
I’ve had some trouble in my short life, but I haven’t let it destroy my sweet heart or determined spirit! Are you willing to give me the extra care and love I deserve? I know I’m worth it!
