Meet Cocoa! 🐾
This sweet 1 year old Mastiff (about 90 lbs) came to us terrified. She cowered at the back of her shelter kennel, too scared to come forward. But underneath all that fear was a girl just waiting to feel safe. By the end of her very first day in foster care, she was snuggled up on the couch with the kids.
Cocoa is playful, gentle, and eager to please. She LOVES fetch (her green rope ball is her whole world), enjoys a good game of tug, and already knows Sit and Drop It. Her house manners are wonderful, and she does great with the older female dog in her foster home. A calm, confident dog buddy really helps her feel secure.
She's still building confidence and needs a patient family who will let her world expand at her own pace. New people can be scary at first, especially men, but she's making amazing progress every day: tail wags, play bows, and chin scratches for her foster dad.
Cocoa would love a securely fenced yard for fetch and a family willing to give her time. Once she feels safe, this girl turns into a couch snuggling, tail wagging sweetheart.
