My story

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

Coco is the cutest little piggy you could ever meet! She's quite friendly, and if you've got some food to offer, she'll happily take it right from your hand. Coco can be a bit nervous when hands initially come into her space, but once you've made it known that you're there to offer some yummy food, she calms down quite a bit. She's most comfortable being softly pet along the top of her head and doesn't really seem to enjoy being picked up. She'll happily relax on your lap once she's all wrapped up in a towel. Coco has lived with another piggy before, so we recommend getting her situated in a home where she'll have that companionship in her enclosure. She's quite the catch, and we'd love to send her home with you! Stop by and meet Coco today!

If you'd like to meet our available pets, please check the "shelter information" box on the listing to see if the pet is located at our Fairfax Campus (4500 West Ox Road, Fairfax) or our Lorton Campus (8875 Lorton Road, Lorton). Then, come in during our open hours! Both of our locations are open Tuesdays and Wednesdays 12-5 p.m., Thursdays and Fridays 12-7 p.m., and Saturdays and Sundays 11 a.m.-5 p.m. For more information on our adoption process, including requirements and fees, visit: www.fairfaxcounty.gov/animalshelter/adopt
