Mr. Grinch is a very sweet and smart little dog who has had to be very resourceful in his short life as a stray. He is quite energetic and can jump straight up in the air like Tigger when he's excited! He loves to play with other dogs and cats and has now learned all about toys. He will entertain himself by throwing his own toy. He even throws better than some pitchers! He is a very happy little dog and loves to be loved and petted. He is working on potty training. He will make a great family companion for anyone looking for an active and playful best friend!

Story

Hello, I'm Ella. I'm a little shy when we first meet, but I promise, once we get to know each other, you'll find I'm the sweetest friend you could ask for. I love to explore. Every scent, every sound, every hidden corner, they're all adventures waiting to happen. I'm as curious as they come, always eager to learn and experience new things. I'm friendly, too. I'm always happy, always joyful. My previous owner loved me very much, but unfortunately, they couldn't care for me anymore. I'm looking for a new home, a new family. Someone who will love me, care for me, and join me on my adventures. I promise, I'll be the best friend you've ever had. Adopt me, and let's start our adventure together.

Female, Adult

Houma, LA

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained,

Story

Cocoa is the sweetest dog you could ever ask for. She’s 7 years old we adopted her from the animal shelter when she was 2. She loves car rides and attention and loves to cuddle. She lives inside but loves to play outside on nice days. She terrified of bad weather and fireworks. She does have anxiety which I give her calming treats when she gets nervous. She is very protective of her people, she’s a very good guard dog. She’s never bitten a person but she does get nervous around kids and she’ll go hide in her safe place which is her kennel that she loves! I had two older dogs before we adopted her which is 9 & 8 now and for some reason she started attacking them for no known reason. It’s starting to happen more frequently and I’m worried about them. It breaks my heart I have to make this decision but we think she’ll be better with someone with no animals and possibly no small children. Only charging a rehoming fee to make sure she goes with someone who will love & care for her.
