🐾 MEET COCO: The Tiny Texan with a Big Personality! 🤠✨🇨🇱 Looking for a boring lapdog? Keep scrolling! 🛑 Coco is a 12 lb "Chili Heeler" blend (Heeler, Kelpie x Chihuahua mix) with a soft red & tan coat, a bushy plume tail, and the brilliant brain of a miniature ranch hand. Coco treats life like a game of chess.♟️She doesn't just bark—she negotiates! 🤝🏻 She is hyper-expressive and uses her front paws like little hands to gesture while offering soft, under-the-breath chatters to tell you exactly what she's thinking. 🧠💬 The Coco Highlights: • The Chore Inspector: She loves watching you do chores and lingers on standby waiting for her turn to "help. • "The Floor Patrol: True to her herding roots, Coco loves to round up loose items left on the floor to "save" for later! She’s the perfect little reminder to keep your favorite things behind closed doors and leave out plenty of fun dog toys for her to collect instead. She’ll have your house looking beautifully organized in no time! 🤫🧦🩰 • The Downtime Partner: Don't let her busy work ethic fool you—Coco loves to snuggle and will gladly cozy up with you for some downtime. Whether it's watching a movie 🎬, reading a book 📚, or taking a nap 😴, she will always be right there by your side for mutual comforting.🧸 • The Thrill of the Chase: She lives to run with kids, dogs, cats and other critters as well as sprint after moving balls (though she expects you to pick them up!). • Elite IQ: She’s a clever little escape artist who needs puzzle toys and a secure yard to channel her busy working brain. 🤓 🦊 • Resilient Spirit: She just conquered her final medical milestone (recovering like a champ after having hardware removed from her hip/leg!) and is officially ready to find her forever humans. Coco is a big dog trapped in a tiny 12 lb body. She is tactical, fiercely loyal, independent, and will keep you laughing every single day. 👉 Ready to add some Texas charm and dramatic flair to your life?
