History: We recently held our annual Out of the Cold Rescue Effort and welcomed back 200+ animals to rescue. This rescue effort helps animals out of the cold, frigid weather of North Dakota and welcomes them to loving foster homes at Coco’s Heart who work towards finding forever homes for these sweet pups.

A Note from the Foster: Hi there, I’m Darwin! 🐾
Aren’t I the most handsome brindle boy you’ve ever seen? My foster parents say I’ve got a perfect pouty lip and the cutest little underbite - they tell me it’s irresistible. 💕

I absolutely love playing with most other dogs, so if you’ve got a pup who’s looking for a buddy, I might just be the perfect fit!
Now that I’ve discovered what dog food is, I’m obsessed - it’s the best thing ever! 🍖 But, um… sometimes I like to sample things I shouldn’t, what can I say, I’m curious!, so my kennel is my safe space. I’m still working on loving it, but my foster parents make it a little easier by putting my food inside. Smart, right? 🦴

I’m on the lookout for my forever family who will love me, quirks and all. Could it be you? If you think I’m your perfect match, I'd love for you to apply!

**Darwin needs a heavy-duty kennel to prevent any possible escapes and a fenced-in yard, as he is a curious little guy who loves adventuring!

Adoption Fee: $500 + tax

Adoption Status: Is this dog available? Submitting an application is the best first step to learning if a dog is still available. There is a chance this dog could have a pending adoption when your application is submitted, however our team will offer approved applicants to be put on a waiting list for that dog. Additionally, we can make recommendations on other dogs that may be a match. Pending adoptions do not mean the adoption is finalized. Why did we implement this change? We implemented this update because, unfortunately, dogs were pending for applicants for several weeks and then the applicant would change their mind. This happens more often with puppies, as applications are submitted impulsivly more often for them. Our process is great because it takes a little time, so impulsive decisions fade. However it was unfortunate for the dogs, and the foster homes, as then the process needed to be re-started. By securing a wait-list we are able to move forward more quickly if a pending adoption falls through. This is a new process for us, so your feedback along the way is helpful! Thank you for supporting rescue and adoption!
