She's in a house with yard now, but where I'm moving to is too small. She's currently 71 pounds.

Story
In late Janaury if 2021 I got a call from my mother who works at a animial hospital. A client had brought in this small pittie pup who was found wondering the streets after a snow storm. We decided to go get her and see how she got along with our other two dogs. Things panned out and we were able to keep her. Fastforward to 2024...she has developed some jelousy towards one of our dogs. The other one she gets completely along with so I think this may just be a compatability issue. We have worked hard to accomodate their differences however keeping either one locked in a kennel for long periods of time is just not a good life. She is sweet an affectioate to all humans...we had a baby in 2022 and she has done great with him. I believe she would do best in a home as the only dog and or another dog she can get along with. We just want her to continue to have a good life and not be stuck in a kennel alot of the time .

Story
Meet Cocoa – Your Future Walking Buddy! Currently at Burlingame Animal Hospital | 5 years old | Spayed Pitbull Mix Cocoa is a beautiful brindle sweetheart with a heart as warm as her name! At 5 years old, she’s the perfect blend of gentle energy and calm companionship. Cocoa has completed her heartworm treatment (diagnosed 1/16/2024, completed 4/24/2024), and officially tested heartworm negative on 1/22/2025. She’s been on prevention ever since and is healthy, happy, and ready for her forever home! Cocoa has also received basic obedience training, making her a well-mannered girl who’s eager to please. She's sweet, especially once she builds trust, and while she enjoys playtime, she's still learning how to fully let loose. She absolutely loves her walks and would make a wonderful walking companion—or she’d be just as content with a yard to explore and relax in. Ideal Home: Cocoa would do best as the only pet in the household, but she may do well with another large dog if introduced properly and patiently. After over a year at Burlingame Animal Hospital, Cocoa is more than ready to find a family to call her own. With her sweet personality, obedience skills, and loving spirit, Cocoa is just waiting for the right person to give her the home she’s been dreaming of.

Maya is a 4 year old hyper girl. She's super sweet and loves people! She needs a lot of love and a big backyard. She'll be great for any one who needs a running partner or has kids that need a playmate. She will need a slow introduction to other pets, but she will be great once they get to know her. She is blanket thief and a cuddle hog!
