UPDATE: Fostered! Cocoa is currently living in the home of one of our volunteers with 3 foster sibling dogs. She is adjusting well, loves playing with the other dogs, and is a sweet affectionate girl. She is still looking for her Forever Home.
Cocoa is a striking dark chocolate brown Staffordshire Terrier. She is still a puppy (approx. about 12-15 mth old), who was found as a stray and has been at the shelter since October! She has not shown aggression toward other dogs, but she is very active and vocal, barking when she sees another dog while she’s leashed. However, when dogs walk past her cage, she’s fine, wags her tail and nuzzles, she does not appear to be dog aggressive. Her barking at other dogs seems to be a desire to play. She is pretty strong so will need someone who can handle her and train her to behave a bit better when around other dogs. She’s a beautiful dog and will make a wonderful companion for an experienced person.
