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.
This litter of puppies were found needing rescue in a ditch. It took two people who were brave enough to crawl into a tiny culvert and pulled them out one by one. One puppy had a metal can stuck on her face that luckily was taken off without permanent damage. These puppies are lucky to be alive!
A Note from the Foster: Fiona is a fiesty one! She has a big personality in a tiny body. She is bold, brave and the first to explore....reminiscent of Nala on The Lion King! Whether it be seeing what's on the other side of the wood pile or approaching the next door neighbor puppy; Fiona will march her big bellied tiny body right on over to investigate! This little rascal is full of life and love and yummy puppy cuddles!
Adoption Fee: $750 + 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!
