Coco

My story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. BOSTON TERRIER LOOKING FOR A NEW HOME.  COULD THAT BE YOUR HOME??We hope you'll consider adopting COCO.  She is a courtesy listed dog and not part of BFPA. You do not need to submit an application to Best Friend Pet Adoption.  Please contact Leslie directly at lsmith3294@gmail.com.   Coco was born on 6/24/2017. She is 26 pounds and very healthy. She is up-to-date on all her vaccinations,  heartworm preventative and is spayed. She is a lively and cute  8 yo Boston Terrier.   Coco‘s owners were dispatched to Korea for Mission work. When in the care of a friend, she tore her ACL. The owners won’t be back for two years and were unable to deal with this from so far away.  Sadly they felt they needed to find a new home for her.  Coco's vet was able to find her current caregiver (Leslie) who gladly agreed to see Coco through this surgery.   Coco had an ACL repair on March 6, 2025 and has made a full recovery. She is "good to go!"   Leslie's comments: Now that she is well,  she is too active to be in the home with my other medically needy dogs. Coco wants to play. She would love nothing better than to sit in my lap and sleep or chase a ball. She wants to be an only dog like she has always been. She does not like sharing the attention or her toys. She travels well and is well behaved.  Once she warms up to you, she will be a loyal friend for life. She might take a little longer to warm up to men.  But once she starts to trust them, she does fine. She is very loyal and protective of her people.  Coco is extremely healthy and active, she’s affectionate, sweet, playful, high energy, and curious. She is house trained and knows some basic commands. She does not need to be crated when alone and would do well with someone who worked away from the home.  She would love a fenced yard but is also used to being on a leash.  She is quiet and could live in an apartment but would not be a candidate for a doggie park.   DISCLAIMER: We hope you'll consider adopting COCO.  She is a courtesy listed dog.  This means that she is not a part of or associated with Best Friend Pet Adoption (BFPA). The bio information listed for her was provided by her owner or care giver and not generated or verified by BFPA. Adoption arrangements will be a private arrangement between you and the owner/caregiver.  As with any dog adoption, BFPA encourages potential adopters to gain as much information as possible before adopting. This includes temperament testing and verification of vet records to ensure the dog is in good health, UTD on vaccinations and has been sterilized.
