My story

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

Meet Coco: A Resilient, Sweetheart Chihuahua Looking for a Special Home!

Coco is an 8-month-old, 8-pound bundle of love and determination. This little guy is incredibly lucky to be alive after being hit by a car and taken to Dallas Animal Services. We rescued him just in time and immediately took him to the vet for care.

Coco has three pelvic fractures that are currently healing on their own. Once he’s fully recovered, he’ll need an FHO (femoral head osteotomy) to remove the femoral head, which will help prevent pain and arthritis as he gets older. Despite everything he’s been through, Coco is a sweet and happy boy who’s making amazing progress.

Although Coco’s original owners were located after his rescue, they’ve failed to come forward, so now we’re searching for the perfect foster or forever home for him. He needs a quiet, calm environment where he can continue his recovery safely.

Currently, Coco is living in a play yard and doing great with his pee pad. He’s even starting to whine to go outside for potty breaks—a wonderful sign of progress! He’s no longer on pain medication, is walking well, and even tries to run (though we’re working hard to slow him down to aid healing). One thing’s for sure: Coco loves his food and is always eager for a good meal!

If you can provide Coco with the peaceful home and love he needs to thrive, please complete our online adoption application at www.chloespetrescue.org/application. His adoption fee is $275.

Coco is ready to steal hearts—could yours be next?

FYI, we are estimating that his surgery and pre-surgery appointment will be roughly $1600. During my birthday fundraiser, we raised $500 which we going toward his medical bills
