In the shelter’s words

*PHOENIX METRO AREA ONLY* Meet Coco… this gentle, middle-aged Chihuahua sweetheart is searching for a soft place to land. At about 6 years old and 17 pounds, Coco is the perfect size for cuddles—and he absolutely loves them. Coco recently came from a home where his owner could no longer keep up with his care, but through it all, he’s remained one of the sweetest, easiest dogs you’ll ever meet. He’s adorable, a little on the chunky side (which only adds to his charm!), and truly has zero issues—just love to give. Coco does have a mild heart murmur that doesn’t slow him down one bit. He also takes medication to manage occasional seizures. We’re still working with our vet to better understand the cause, but he’s doing very well on his current medication, which is inexpensive (less than $20 for a 60-day supply). According to his foster mom, Coco is a joy to have around. He loves his people, gets along well with other dogs, and would also be perfectly happy as an only dog soaking up all the attention. He would prefer a home where someone is around most of the time and would enjoy a fenced yard where he can lounge and take afternoon naps when the weather is just right. If you’re looking for a low-maintenance, snuggly companion to share your days with, Coco might just be your perfect match! Coco is up to date on vaccinations, neutered, and microchipped.
