Coco Chihuahua Rockville, MD

Meet Coco, the sweetest, cuddliest, silliest two-year old Chihuahua! Coco was rescued from a hoarding situation and took some time to come out of his shell but now that we've had him for a few weeks, we can really see his loving and playful personality shine through! Coco is a gentle boy and so curious to explore everything. He gets along well with my other chihuahua and cat, and loves running around the backyard with his foster brother!

We have made sure to give him a safe and loving environment, so he has absolutely warmed up to me and wants all the cuddles! He is my shadow and follows me around everywhere I go and immediately falls asleep wherever I settle down.

As Coco wasn't dealt the best hand his first two years of life, he is learning how to be loved and be a dog. We are working on potty training and he's been doing great with a solid schedule and lots of treats and praise. He is wary around men, but we continue to work on it by giving him treats and scratches. We have also been working on teaching him basic commands (sit, stay, etc.) and he is definitely learning! Coco is absolutely motivated by food!

Chihuahuas are known for having "a person and while Coco has chosen me for now, I know he is going to quickly fall in love with his forever family!
