Coco

Hi, I’m Coco!

I’m an older female Chocolate Labrador with plenty of life still left in me! I don’t act like an 8 year old dog — I’m an energetic social butterfly, ready to explore and meet new people.

Unfortunately for me, my wonderful owners need to move far away, and I cannot go with them. So, it’s up to me to show my true colours and beautiful temperament in order to find a new family to take care of me and love me for the rest of my years.

I’m very social towards other dogs and just love people, so if you have any kids over the age of 6 or other canines in the home, be sure to bring them in to meet me!

I also love carrying things around in my mouth — it’s one of my favourite things to do! So, my new family will need to provide me with plenty of appropriate toys and things I’m allowed to carry, so I don’t decide to borrow your favourite belongings instead!

My ideal lifestyle will include the occasional walk, plenty of mental stimulation to keep me busy, controlled balanced meals (as I REALLY enjoy my food), and some cosy places where I can curl up and sleep without having to worry about people or other dogs annoying me.

If you’re looking for a new companion, I might be the perfect fit! Give the shelter a call to arrange a time to come and see my happy, beaming face!
