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: Meet Lutsen, our fast-track foster and resident goofball! This handsome black shepherd mix is equal parts playful pup and loyal companion. Lutsen lives for playtime—whether it’s chasing toys, romping with other dogs, or making you laugh with his joyful prance that would make Santa consider adding a new recruit. He adores people and will be your shadow, ready for cuddles or just hanging out.
House-training? Almost there! Crate-training? Nailed it. But here’s the real kicker: Lutsen drinks water like a toddler in a splash zone. Seriously, if you’ve ever wanted a live-action reminder to mop the kitchen, he’s your guy.
If you’re looking for a fun-loving, people-friendly, water-sprinkling companion, Lutsens ready to win your heart and your floor’s forgiveness.
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!
