Story
PLEASE WELCOME COLE TO COASTAL SHELTIE RESCUE! 🎉🐾adoption fee $100 for October!
💙 Everyone, meet Cole! This handsome throwback-style Pomeranian is estimated to be 4 to 5 years old, weighs approximately 13 pounds, and has a personality that is simply contagious! 🥰
Cole has never met a stranger when it comes to people! He greets life with joyful, puppy-like enthusiasm, and his happy-go-lucky attitude and affectionate nature bring smiles wherever he goes.
🧠 He learns quickly and already knows a few basic commands.
🚗 He rides beautifully in the car.
🛏️ He does well in both a crate and a playpen.
✂️ He’s a wonderful boy for baths and grooming.
🏡 He has shown no destructive behaviors in his foster home.
💦 ONE OF COLE’S GREATEST LOVES IS WATER!
Splashing in a kiddie pool, enjoying the backyard pool, or joining his family for a waterside adventure, Cole is all in! 🌊🏖️
He’s the kind of little companion who could make beach days and boat outings even more special, with supervision and a properly fitted dog life jacket, of course! 🛟🚤
A water-loving home isn’t required, but it would certainly be a bonus for this adventurous boy.
⚡ Cole has moderate to high energy and needs an active family. Small dogs still need plenty of exercise, enrichment, and playtime, and Cole is ready for all three!
🏡 WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR:
🏠 Homeowners will receive first consideration.
🌳 A securely fenced backyard is preferred. We will consider townhomes with securely fenced yards for the right family.
🚸 Homes with children must have a securely fenced yard.
🐶 Cole would do best with a friendly female dog or as an only pet. He was recently neutered and showed mild reactivity when meeting another recently neutered male. This has not been his response to every male dog, but we are prioritizing homes with a female dog or where he would be the only pet. Thoughtful, gradual introductions will be important.
🐱 We do not have any history of Cole living with cats.
🏊 Homes with pools are welcome! There must also be plenty of grassy yard space for Cole to run and play. We do not place dogs in homes where dog doors allow access to unfenced pools.
🌿 Cole needs grass, room to explore, and space to play. We do not place dogs in “concrete jungle” environments where they have little access to suitable outdoor space.
💙 We adopt to AGE- AND ACTIVITY-APPROPRIATE homes, matching each dog’s needs with the family’s lifestyle.
📍 Cole is being fostered in Virginia Beach, Virginia.
🖤 OCTOBER ADOPTION SPECIAL! 🖤
Cole’s regular adoption fee is $385. Thanks to a generous donation supporting the adoption of black dogs, $285 has been covered, making his adoption fee $100 for October!
🐾 To qualify, your application must be submitted AND Cole’s adoption must be completed during the month of October.
All regular adoption requirements and screening still apply. Finding the right family for Cole remains our priority.
✨ If you’re looking for a happy, outgoing, water-loving little adventure buddy for road trips, backyard zoomies, outdoor fun, and lots of affection, Cole just might be your perfect match! ❤️
👇 Applications are now open! Please visit our website for instructions on how to apply.
Rescue. Restore. Rejoice. 🐾
