About Coco

Meet Coco - A Sweet Little Survivor Ready for Her Forever Lap Please read the bio in full for answers to common questions. If you have a question not covered here, please email�%[email protected].�%A0If interested in adopting, please complete an adoption application at�%A0https://seniordoghaven.org/adoption-process/. Because all of our dogs live in foster homes, meet-and-greets are scheduled only after a completed application is received. Adoptions must be within a reasonable distance of Landenberg, PA so our volunteers can conduct an in-person home visit. At 8 years old and just 8.5 pounds, Coco is a lovable Shih Tzu mix with a resilient spirit and a heart full of affection. This sweet girl came to us as an owner surrender in rough condition: severely matted and struggling with a painful ruptured eye. Thanks to the care she received, her left eye has been removed, her dental work is complete, and she's feeling better than ever. Now she's ready to start her next chapter in a loving forever home. Coco is a cuddly little companion who absolutely adores people and happily settles into your lap whenever given the chance. She's medium-energy, enjoys playing with toys, and walks nicely on a leash. She's friendly with dogs and kids and would do well in either a single-dog or multi-dog household. She is nearly housebroken and continues to make great progress; during very cold weather she may use pee pads. Coco sleeps comfortably in a pen in her foster's room and is kennel trained. She eats both wet and dry food but definitely prefers the softer options. Because of her previous eye issues, Coco receives twice-daily eye drops (cyclosporine and lubricant) to keep her remaining eye healthy. She doesn't bark much, handles being picked up well, and can manage stairs without difficulty. A fenced yard is not required. She'd be perfectly happy in a home where she can soak up love, chase a toy, and curl up beside her person. Coco's ideal home is simply one filled with kindness, patience, and plenty of lap time. After everything she's been through, this sweet girl is ready to give her whole heart to a family who will cherish her forever.
