COCO's Story

***THIS ANIMAL IS STAYING IN A FOSTER HOME AND IS NOT CURRENTLY IN THE SHELTER*** Coco is a joyful, high-energy sweetheart who approaches life with enthusiasm, playfulness, and a whole lot of love. This happy boy just wants to prance around, play, and be part of whatever his people are doing. He’s full of life and thrives on activity, attention, and companionship. <br/><br/>Coco has a very high energy level and would do best in a home ready to keep him busy. He currently enjoys multiple play sessions a day—often 30 minutes to an hour at a time—and still has energy to spare. Playtime, exercise, and interactive fun are essential for him, and once he’s had a chance to burn off some energy, he’s more than happy to soak up affection and cuddle with his favorite humans. <br/><br/>He absolutely loves people and sees everyone as a potential playmate. While he hasn’t yet been formally introduced to children or other pets, he shows strong interest in engaging and playing when he sees them. Coco is gentle with treats and allows handling around food, showing no signs of possessiveness.<br/><br/> Coco is smart and eager to learn. With consistency, he’s already improving his manners and is getting very good at sitting politely while his leash is put on or taken off. He’s a quick learner who responds well to guidance and routine. <br/><br/>He’s also getting accustomed to grooming, such as brushing. One thing to note is that Coco seems sensitive around his back right hip and does not like being touched there. This may indicate a previous injury or soreness, so continued observation and gentle handling around that area will be important. <br/><br/>Affectionate and endearing, Coco doesn’t quite understand his size and truly believes he’s a lap dog. He’s the kind of dog who wants to play hard, love deeply, and cuddle even closer. With an active home, consistent training, and lots of love, Coco will make an incredibly fun, devoted companion. <br/><br/> Adoptions are free and include support from our adoption team to ensure a smooth transition from the shelter to your home. Adopted pets are vaccinated, microchipped, and spayed/neutered before leaving with you. To view our current available animals, please visit: https://indy.gov/activity/adopt-a-pet.
