I found a new home! Plenty of my friends are looking for one too. Check out other pets at this shelter, or start a new search.

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
We have a transport where we will be personally taking our dogs home leaving on 1/11/25 to NorCal and OR. Surrounding states will be added to our route if needed ☺️ We would love to add Cocoa to our trip for the right home 💕
Meet our beautiful girl Cocoa ❤️ She is a 2 1/2 year old poodle/yorkie mix (yorkiepoo.) She weighs right below 11 lbs. Yes, she is full grown and at a very healthy weight. She is spayed, current on vaccines, microchipped, had a dental cleaning done at time of her spay, along with a great phsycial exam ❤️
She is house trained, and will go outside when asked to throughout the day to use the restroom. She does love to be accompanied when outdoors, but if you are unable to she will hurry along so that she can come right back inside with you ❤️
She is crate trained, and currently sleeps in her crate at night, or to nap in during the day with the crate door opened. She is very easy going, and never fusses in her crate. She would love to be in bed with her humans, or on a bed all her own aside yours if permitted but no matter what the sleeping arrangements end up being she will happily oblige.
She is leash trained, and loves her walks. She is a very happy, and social girl once she becomes acclimated in her environment. She loves to be a part of your day however she can, and if your short stroll is to the mailbox and back, she will be just as happy with that then if your stroll took you around the neighborhood or to the neighbor next door ☺️ Just make sure they have treats waiting for her, because the way to this girls heart is through food!
She LOVES her treats, and will do a happy dance for them while she attempts to patiently wait for you to give her one (or two 🙃.) She knows basic commands like sit, come, stay, up (when inviting her on the bed or sofa,) down/off, and her favorite dance or treat 😂 She will do all the above for a treat!
She is phenomenal with other dogs and cats alike, and is a very kind hearted, gentle, sweet soul ready to be part of any animals life if they will welcome her to be ❤️ She has a very calm nature, and serene temperament and will melt your heart from the moment you meet her ☺️
She is NOT a barker; and may or may not alert of unfamiliar sounds 🙃 it depends how comfy she is in her bed, or in your lap 💕 She is easy going, and easy to please. If you are looking for a little friend to enjoy your days with, to take along for rides around town, sit at the coffee shop with, or to venture off into the world on road trips of any length and any destination then Cocoa is definitely your girl!!
She is amazing in the car, and will happily sit in her booster seat looking out the window enjoying the views or napping til you reach your stop 😊 She loves the groomer, and while she is a little head shy with the clippers, my groomer has always been very patient with her and she has come to trust her as she will her next groomer ❤️
Her prior owners couldn't financially afford her basic care any further due to loss of income on their end leaving them to have to move back in with family. They didn't know when, or how their situation would change and felt it was best to get Cocoa into a more stable environment so they contacted us here to take her in and find her the best home possible.
Her adoption fee is on our website at the bottom of her adoption listing at https://www.breadoflifek9refuge.org/post/cocoa
It covers her spay, vaccines, microchip and registration, her dental cleaning, additional anesthesia time, iv fluids, pain meds, antibiotic Injection given to aid in the healing of both her spay and dental, and her overall exam which went perfect. Her teeth were in overall great health, but did need a cleaning and polish ❤ And as always, it goes back into the care associated with the time she has been with us, her grooming costs, and her training that we have personally done with her.
