Story
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION AND REQUIREMENTS FOR ADOPTION PICKLES is currently in foster care in Connecticut - please apply on our website. houstonshaggydogrescue.org This is Pickles we took her from our city shelter on jan 28th 2025, she was approx 6 weeks old..she had been hit by a car, her left front leg had multiple fractures, Dr Payne our Orthopedic Surgeon after reviewing the x rays said that she was too young to do any repair work as she was still growing and plating or putting in screws would just impede her growth and there were so many breaks from her ankle up, so every few weeks we take her in for new x rays to see if her leg is healing, Dr Payne feels that at this stage she is doing well and anything that he did would probably do more harm than good, her leg is a tad shorter than the other, but you wouldn't know unless you were told and she does not need any surgery. She is now 1 year old as of November 2025 and approx 20 lbs, she runs and plays like any other dog and is just the happiest little girl. She is now ready for her new home, she gets along with everyone, loves to eat and play with her toys, is pretty well house trained, she runs out to the yard with her buddies, she is not leash/harness trained, but is a very smart pup and should learn very fast, we did a Dna test on her she is Yorkie/Chihuahua(of course) and miniature schnauzer.

*Name: Coco *Age: 12 years old *Current Weight: 17 lbs *Adoption fee: $300 Coco is a lovable 12-year-old Yorkie mix originally rescued from Texas. Don’t let his age fool you – Coco is full of energy and lives for adventure! He’s house-trained and does well on a leash, but his favorite thing in the world is running freely and exploring off-leash. He especially enjoys long hikes through the woods, where he can show off his youthful spirit. Coco’s playful side shines through when he’s chasing plush squeaky toys (though the squeaker doesn’t stand a chance!) or playing fetch. Belly rubs are his ultimate weakness – he will soak up every ounce of affection you have to give. With easy-to-maintain, non-shedding hair, Coco is a dream for grooming and is well-behaved during vet and groomer visits. He’s spent the last five years happily living with kids aged 8-13 and currently resides peacefully with another small dog. Coco is ready to be your forever companion. Apply today and let him fill your home with joy! To apply to adopt, fill out an application at https://snarrnortheast.org/adopt/ PLEASE CLICK HERE FOR FAQs  ##2306241##
