Cocoa

Meet Cocoa — A Sweet, Playful Shih Poo looking for her forever home!

Cocoa is a beautiful 1-year-old Shih Poo (Shih Tzu/Poodle mix) who celebrated her first birthday on November 1. She’s affectionate, playful, and absolutely loves cuddles and running in the backyard. Cocoa enjoys being around people and has a gentle, loving temperament that makes her the perfect companion.

She’s microchipped, kennel-registered, and has all of her vaccinations up to date. Cocoa was groomed recently and is in excellent health. She has not been spayed yet.

Due to our busy family schedules, we’re unable to give Cocoa the time and attention she deserves. We want to find her a caring home where she’ll be loved and cherished as much as she has been with

If you’re ready to welcome a sweet, playful girl into your life, Cocoa will bring you endless love and joy.
