Coco's Story

Senior alert! Meet our sweet Coco! Coco is a 13-year-old Chihuahua. She just had her spa surgery and memory tumors removed, which were all found to be benign. Coco has had a very rough life to start. She hasn’t always been offered love or basic care until she came into RESCUE. Now she has learned what it means to be spoiled! We would like to find a forever home that can continue this for Coco! She is potty trained, and kennel trained. She is just the sweetest old lady looking for a soft bed to sleep on and somebody to give her some pets and lots of treats!

Cause For Paws's Adoption Policy

In order to encourage folks to rescue homeless Orphans, we try to make the rescue experience as non-invasive and pleasant as possible.

We may also contact references listed on the application when there is no previous vet information, or where more information is needed. We’ll then contact you to arrange a home visit, which is merely an opportunity to ask and answer any questions regarding our process.

It is not our intent to set a dog or a family up for failure.

Our Mission

Cause for Paws Rescue is an all-breed rescue group made up of dedicated volunteers, who open their hearts and their homes to provide a safe haven for our orphans, who come to us from Animal Control, High-Kill Shelters and owner surrender situations. Most of our group is made up of volunteers that were previously with Dob...
