Patch Pet: Meet Coco

Sweet Coco is gentle and loves to be around people. This 2-year-old German shepherd and basset hound mix is fabulous with children. She loves to be with people so much that she hates being left alone and would do best with a family that is home most of the time.

She enjoys taking walks on a leash. She loves to play and run outside. She is a good listener who can be a little timid at first, but she quickly warms up and then will shower you with affection.

Coco is house- and crate-trained, and when she's not with her family she can exhibit separation anxiety. She prefers being in her crate where she feels safe and secure anytime she's left alone.

Coco is happiest being included in whatever you're doing and would be the ideal companion to a family with children who enjoy having a canine playmate.

She was returned to Animal Friends because the family that adopted her had another dog that Coco was not fond of. We recommend that Coco be the only dog in your home. She can provide all of the attention and love that anyone could want.

Do you have the homeCoco is dreaming of? She is eager to meet you and to be an important part of a loving family again.

Visit her at Animal Friends, 562 Camp Horne Road in Ohio Township, or call 412-847-7002 for more information.
