Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet the lovely Cocoa! Cocoa is a Chinese Shar-Pei blend who is energetic & loves to play with toys. Cocoa loves car rides (& is calm during them) & getting your attention! Her favorite pastimes include playing with balls, bones, sticks, squeaky toys, & interacting with teenagers.
She knows commands including "sit, "down, & "kennel. Cocoa tends to jump & will push boundaries like many dogs, & therefore we are looking for an experienced dog owner. While she walks nicely on a leash, she may pull if not corrected. Cocoa prefers not to share her food, & should only be rehomed with dogs who are large, confident, calm, & will correct her.
Additionally, Cocoa is sensitive about her teeth & will need annual dental care from a professional as she does not want her teeth brushed at home. She doesn't need a large yard, but does need exercise & engagement from her owners.

In August of 2015, the Idaho Falls community realized its dream of opening a second animal sheltering facility. Unlike other animal shelters, the Snake River Animal Shelter (SRAS) will provide an animal an unlimited length of stay, thus avoiding the need for euthanasia.
SRAS was built to take owner surrenders and transfer animals from other shelters throughout the Upper Snake River Valley, thus relieving overcrowding at the city operated animal shelters throughout East Idaho. We operate solely on donations, grants and sponsorships from businesses and individuals. This unique place offers adoption services and a place for the animals to socialize with each other and their future families. Education is a large part of the existence of this facility, educating the community about proper pet care and responsibilities. We also facilitate and partner in spay and neuter programs to alleviate the problem of too many unwanted domestic animals. Snake River Animal Shelter offers Elementary-age field trips, tours, and presentations and invites teens to participate in the care and feeding of the SRAS animals. Senior citizens are welcome guests and fulfill many volunteer positions that are essential for the care of our animals.
