Meet CoCo
Name: CoCo
Age: 1 year
Sex: Neutered Male
Breed: Border Collie Mix
Color: Black / White / Brown
Weight: 10 kg
Height: 43–45 cm (shoulder height)
Rescue Story
CoCo was rescued on November 19, 2025, from a severe animal hoarding case involving over 200 dogs. He was extremely fearful of people when first rescued, but after one month in a foster home, he has made remarkable progress and has learned that humans can be kind and safe.
With People
CoCo may be a little shy at first, but once treats come out, he quickly warms up and starts trusting. After he bonds with someone, he enjoys being touched and can even be picked up by supporting his belly. When he feels close to you, he will roll over and show his tummy as a sign of affection.
His confidence with people has grown significantly — he now shows interest in people on walks and has recently started paying special attention to women, sometimes wanting to follow them. He also prefers to sleep close to his people.
With Other Dogs
CoCo is generally neutral toward other dogs. He doesn’t seek out play and usually ignores dogs that approach him. However, he can feel nervous around dogs larger than himself. If another dog acts pushy or challenging, CoCo chooses to avoid the situation rather than react.
With Cats & Birds
When he sees cats on walks, he may look at them with curiosity, but he will follow his handler when guided. He may show a brief chasing response toward birds.
Energy Level
CoCo has a moderate energy level. He enjoys outdoor activities and especially loves walking, running, and moving. After exercise, he settles down well and relaxes calmly.
On Walks
CoCo loves walks and prefers brisk walking or jogging over sniffing. He does pull on leash, but he follows his handler and is currently practicing better leash manners. He has recently become more interested in people while walking, which can distract him, so continued training will help.
At Home & Other Notes
• No food guarding with people or dogs
• Rarely barks, but may bark to ask for something
• May whine briefly in a kennel, then settles
• Jumps into and out of the car on his own
• Uses both pee pads and outdoor potty
• Not very interested in toys
• Knows “sit” and “paw,” currently learning “down”
• Recently showing some separation anxiety — gradual alone-time training is recommended
• Has chewed phone charging cables, so wires should be kept out of reach
• Currently teething, so safe chew toys are important
• Not food-obsessed, but happily takes treats
CoCo is a gentle, sensitive, and affectionate boy who has overcome a difficult past. With patience, structure, and love, he will continue to grow into a loyal and wonderful companion
