About Coal

Coal is an adorable 15-month-old Malti-Poo-Pomeranian mix being fostered near Palm Coast, FL. Coal is a 7lb extremely timid little 15 month old velcro boy. He is extremely affectionate but very timid and does require security from his person. First thing in the morning, he does his zoomies when he goes outside to potty. He is as funny as can be when he runs at the speed of wind. He does seem to be housebroken and has had no accidents in the house. It is apparent that he was never socialized as a puppy and is very skittish and afraid of many things. He will run and sometimes hide under furniture if he hears a noise or anything that frightens him. Foster mom is trying to socialize him by bringing him around other small dogs at the small doggy park and also letting him interact with other humans at the park on his own terms. He is improving slowly and is starting to show a little independence by slightly walking away from his foster mom on his own. He is still afraid of most people. Cole requires a very calm and quiet household and at least one owner that is a stay at home person. He wants to be with you at all times but is learning to trust other humans. He is doing very well in his foster home with her one small female dog. If he is placed in a home with another dog, that dog will need to be around or under 15lbs or smaller. He sleeps with his foster mom in her bed as close to her as possible and may even sleep on her chest or tummy. Aside from being timid and shy, is his poor appetite and eating habits. He will go a couple of days without eating and when you can get him to eat, he sometimes has to be hand fed very small amounts like the equivalent of 5 raisins. He has been vetted and is healthy except he is on anti-nausea medication at the moment while Cole's foster mom continues to work at finding a food he will eat. She will continue to work at finding what he likes to eat so that he can be adopted into his furever home. He is so precious and we will continue to work with him until and help him to be the great little guy that he has the potential to be. Needless to say, he requires a very calm and soft spoken human that will be very patient with him to be his next mom or dad, along with a quiet, stable home with no children.
