About Coco
Coco is a gorgeous 5 year old fox terrier who weighs in around 8kg. Yes, some may say he’s solid, but I like to say he’s just cuddly! And when jumping on the trampoline (one of his all time favorite past times!) he makes a great bounce for the person jumping with him.
Coco loves playing with his awesome selection of bouncy balls and toys. He loves his daily walks as it keeps his mind stimulated (and wears him out!), and he loves playing with other dogs.
Coco also loves children. In fact, he often prefers them to adults! But as he can be nervous around little people we wouldn’t rehome him to a home with wee little ones. An active family with teenagers is a whole other story though!
He is loving, enjoys a cuddle on your lap, and is as loyal and devoted as they come. So if you’ve fallen in love with him already, what are you waiting for? Coco is ready, willing and able!

Medical notes
All Chihuahua Rescue Queensland dogs have been fully health checked by our vets. We offer a free post-adoption health check with Greencross Vets at Chermside, Jindalee, Browns Plains or Indooroopilly hospitals. This gives you the opportunity to talk directly to the vet about any questions you may have. We provide all veterinary records for each dog, including copies of blood tests, any relevant xrays and medical notes.
All Chihuahua Rescue Queensland dogs are desexed, vaccinated and microchipped. We test all our dogs for heartworm and treat them with regular parasite prevention.
Coco has luxating patellas however they have been xrayed and he does not have inflammation. The condition causes him no pain and our surgeon has not recommended surgery.

Adoption details
Chihuahua Rescue QLD Inc. is not a first to apply rescue group.We re-home our dogs based on the best possible family we can find them.
The first step to adopting a dog from us is to fill out an expression of interest form.
We encourage you to provide as much detail as possible about your family and your home as this helps us make sure we match you with the most suitable dog.
This form can be found at the following address: http://www.emailmeform.com/builder/form/Kczrs885x4lq3N9u4mQhca
Due to the large volume of inquiries we are unable to respond to all applications. If you are considered suitable for the dog you have applied for you will be contacted witihin one week of applying.
Please note: we do not organise any meet and greet without a completed expression of interest form.
Our adoption process involves:
1) Completing online application form - only shortlisted applicants will be contacted.
2) Arranging a meet and greet with the dogs foster carer, after which we ask you to take 24 hours to make a decision about whether you want to adopt this dog
3) A brief home visit and yard check from one of our volunteers
4) Adoption trial spanning four weeks.
We ask that you pay the dogs adoption fee at the beginning of the adoption trial, however this will be refunded if for any reason the dog is not working out in your home within the four week period. We offer a four week adoption trial to make sure that you have plenty of time for your new dog to settle into your home and so we can offer you full support during this period and beyond.
