My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Coco is such a sweet, chill dog from Santa Cruz county whose family moved away and then she bounced around a bit before coming to live with us for the last three months. She gets along with our 4-year-old and loves playing with other dogs (especially big ones). She hardly ever barks. She loves pets and scratches but isn't overly cuddly. She sleeps in in the morning until we get up and doesn't need to eat or go out immediately (she doesn't need to go out that often in general). She also loves car rides. On walks, she's a big sniffer and prefers for the entire family to stay together. She doesn't mind baths.

We did a six-week training course with her through the East Bay SPCA. She can sit, touch, and wait. She will also lie when needed but not on command. She still tugs on walks.

She's about 25-30 lbs., a red heeler / chihuahua mix, 5-7 years old, with no known health issues except a little allergic to grass (goopy eyes, sneezes when she gets her nose in stuff.
