Story
Jr is looking for a loving foster home while they receive medical care. Reason for Foster: URI, Periodontal Disease, Cataracts vs. Nuclear Sclerosis, Awaiting Dental Extractions Surgery and possible Cherry Eye RepairFoster Time Frame: Approximately 2-3 Weeks (Surgery date will later be to determined by our medical team via email or call) (Additional foster time may be needed depending on recovery, rechecks, and ongoing medical needs.) Foster Care Plan: This dog is being treated for an upper respiratory infection, which is similar to a common cold. While recovering, they may experience sneezing, congestion, coughing, or eye and nasal discharge. Their foster will provide a comfortable place to rest, give prescribed medications, and monitor their appetite, energy level, and overall recovery. Because URI can spread to other dogs, they should remain separated from resident dogs while recovering. Medication, supplies, and detailed care instructions will be provided at pickup. Our medical team will also review the care plan and answer any questions. How to take this pet home... *ADOPT: This pet is available through our Foster-to-Adopt Program. Visit Operation Kindness and speak with our Client Services team to learn more. Placements are first-come, first-served. *FOSTER: Interested in providing a temporary foster home for this pet?

Story
This pint-sized senior girl is 10 years old and going strong. Coco is weighs in at a whopping 7 lbs, and we are guessing she is mixed with Maltese. She still likes to play with toys, but she can also entertain herself by looking out the window to see what's going on in the neighborhood. Coco is especially happy when she spots a butterfly! Her crate is her comfort zone, and she will go there for naps or just chilling out. Coco came to Humane Tomorrow with another dog, Lil Bit, when their person sadly passed away. She can be adopted with him, but she is an independent little dog, and will do fine as an only dog. Coco is not a big cuddler, but she does like to lay close by her person. She may become more affectionate as she settles in at her new home. She is potty trained, not a big barker, and walks well on leash. Please submit your application, and an adoption counselor will contact you.
