My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Cocoa has an adoption pending. Meet Sweet Cocoa!! Cocoa is 9 years old and weights 60 lbs. Cocoa is house-trained, and knows basic commands (sit, stay, down). Cocoa is smart and very sweet! She is a perfect house dog and can be left "home alone". Unfortunately, her owner had health issues and could no longer care for Cocoa. Now Cocoa is in a temporary foster home with two doggy pals while we search for her forever new home. Cocoa also lived with cats and is cat friendly. Cocoa loves everyone she meets both adults and kids. She loves car rides too. Cocoa needs to lose some weight but don't tell her we said that!;-) She is spayed, vaccinated and in very good health. Cocoa is a wonderful dog!

If you are interested in Cocoa, please submit an online application so we can learn a little about you to make sure Cocoa would be a good match for you and your family. We do not do out of state adoptions, due to our trial adoption process. Adoption fee/donation is $ 75.00

If you have specific questions, please email the adoption coordinator at info@loveastraydog.com If you can't foster or adopt, please consider donating to help us with medical expenses and ongoing care. You can mail your donation to: Love-A-Stray, P.O. Box 125, Attn: Cocoa, Avon Lake, OH 44012 or visit www.loveastraydog.com for credit card/PayPal information, adoption application, available dogs and upcoming events. Thank you!

Meet the Pet

We do not have a physical facility. A meet and greet will be scheduled with a Love-A-Stray Volunteer, the dog, and our interested adopters.

Additional adoption info

Love-A-Stray is a non-profit all volunteer rescue group with most of our volunteers also having full time jobs, so we do the best we can to answer all inquires as soon as possible.

We ask that you complete our adoption application, so we can lean a little bit about you to ensure we can help find your perfect match.

Please do not ask us to ship our dogs out of state. WE DO NOT SHIP! We require adopters to fill out an adoption form and agree to the terms of our adoption contract. All pets are spay/neutered and vaccinated.  

In addition to looking on the website, we show many of our rescued dogs at regular adoption events. Check out our upcoming events for the next opportunity to meet some of our dogs in person.

More about this rescue

Love-A-Stray is a non-profit, all volunteer, no-kill organization dedicated to helping homeless animals.

Since Love-A-Stray doesn't have a "physical" shelter and our animals are housed in foster homes, we do not have some of the usual operating expenses that would be required for a shelter. Consequently adoption fees, fundraising efforts, and donations go directly to a great cause - the animals! Our four fold mission is to:

1. Lessen pet overpopulation by sterilizing adoptable animals and employing aggressive low-cost spay/neuter programs in an effort to provide financial assistance for families who otherwise would not be able to sterilize their pet.

2. Offer housing for unwanted, homeless animals and when necessary, provide medical treatment including emergency veterinary care.

3. Value the life of all rescue animals by providing innovative behavior rehabilitation, when applicable, and placing them from nurturing foster families into loving, compatible, permanent homes.

4. Educate the public on the importance of being an advocate for animals emphasizing humane treatment and sterilization.
