History: I am Loretta’s puppy!
Loretta is a beautiful girl who found herself at an overcrowded rural shelter and was very pregnant. She had her puppies just days prior to coming to rescue and they settled into their foster home with us very quickly. Her puppies are stocky, pudgy kiddos with unique personalities of their very own!
Momma Loretta has been an amazing dog and has recently taken on 3 Great Dane puppies as a surrogate for Momma Lavender who had 15 puppies and could not produce enough milk for them all. Loretta will be ready for adoption once the Great Dane puppies are no longer needing milk. She is so patient with them and took them in as her own- she is the very best girl!
A Note from the Foster: Hey there, I'm Archie! I'm a roly poly pup who can't wait to be your new best friend!
I'm just 11 weeks old but I'm learning all of my "big boy" skills like crate and potty training. I haven't had any accidents in my crate for over a week! Pretty impressive if I do say so myself. Walking on a leash is still a work in progress but I'm super food motivated so I'll get it. I loooove the other dogs who live in my house, they're so much fun to play with. After I get my wiggles out, I am a great snuggle buddy.
Could you be my forever family? Hope to meet you soon!

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!

History: I am Lucy’s puppy!
Lucy is a beautiful pittie mix momma who arrived to rescue from one of our partnering organizations in North Dakota with her litter of pups. Lucy had been abused prior to finding rescue with our partner and had been working hard on her trust building. She has been a wonderful momma and her puppies are officially ready to find forever homes of their own!
Bernard had a heart murmur at birth however after an echo had been done on him, it has since resolved and he is officially ready for adoption!
A Note from the Foster: Bernard is coming into his own since being separated from his litter. He is a rambunctious boy with lots of energy. He loves other dogs, is learning to walk on a leash and is doing GREAT with potty training. He will go on a potty pad OR goes immediately when taken outside. He has pretty much mastered this and rarely has an accident. He is a love bug and wants to be close to people. He sleeps really well at night and prefers snuggling in bed instead of his kennel. He lets you know by being vocal when left in the kennel. Eventually he will settle down if put in a kennel. He does well with kids but is a typical puppy and is teething...so right now he is very mouthy. Children over 5 might be best while he is still in the puppy stage. He does understand the word No. He loves to be outside and is learning to walk on his leash. He is a very well-rounded happy boy!
In the attached photos, he is in line with my dogs waiting for a treat from Foster Dad, In the other photo - let's go upstairs and play with the other dogs Mom

A Note from the Foster: Bruno here coming in as fast as chunky 9-week-old pup can go!!! I’m now weighing 16 lbs.
I am a beautiful pup, with cute floppy ears!
Please note kisses and snuggles are on the top of my list!
I love to play with toys! I have so much fun running outside with my brother Bowie. We like to chase each other and the blowing leaves.
I am learning to tackle the steps going outside. I have mastered going up, but going down is a little scary for me. Foster mommy ensures me it will be ok. It’s a big step, no pun intended.
Foster mommy says we must learn to be big boys. This means my brother Bowie and I go potty outside. We try to run as fast as we can to door. Sometimes we barely make if we just woke up. That’s ok because we are only 9 weeks old…. Each day we get further out the door and down the sidewalk. We get paw bumps for trying so hard and doing a great job! While going potty outside, we are also learning to walk on a leash.
I am also learning to sleep in my very own kennel. Foster mommy says soon we will each have our own forever families, and independence will be important.
There are even a few kitties here. Maybe I will try and make friends with them. 😊
I love snacks and my meals!! This will be very helpful for training.
Please watch for the event notices and come meet me!!

History: Buzzy is a handsome and adorable little kiddo who needed a second chance at a good life after being discarded by a commercial breeding facility. He has his paws crossed to find his forever home soon!
A Note from the Foster: Hi! My name is Buzzy, and I’m a 12 week old Moyen poodle with a very appropriate name because I love buzzing around the house. My foster mom calls me her “little shadow” because I want to be everywhere she is to see what she’s up to and to remind her that I sometimes need some cuddles to feel more secure. I love playing with my soft toys and a Kong with peanut butter, but I don’t have a very long attention span yet. My foster mom says I’ve been doing well with potty training because sometimes I remember to sniff near the door to signal that I need to potty. I like to go outside to do my business, but more importantly, I get to pounce on leaves and sniff all the fun scents—so much to discover.
I miss my foster mom during the day since she works outside the home, but I’m happy to stay in my create with my toys until she comes home because when she comes home, we play, romp outside, and then watch TV together. My foster mom says that my intake exam is complete and that I get to see the nice vets at Coco’s on April 18th for something called neutering. I would love to meet you and become part of your furever family!

History: Cory is a handsome fella who arrived to rescue with the help of a partner organization of ours in rural North Dakota. He is full of life and SUCH a sweet boy who hopes to find his forever home soon!
A Note from the Foster: Say hello to Cory, an irresistible 11-week-old Shepherd mix with a heart full of love and curiosity. Though he may be a little shy at first, it doesn't take long for this sweet pup to warm up—and once he does, get ready for snuggles, tail wags, and playtime galore!
Cory has spent time with school-age kids and teens and absolutely lights up when his favorite human friends come to play. He’s also become best buddies with our 70-pound Catahoula mix—now they're inseparable! Cory loves climbing, wrestling, and romping around with his furry friend, showing off his growing confidence.
This clever pup is highly food-motivated and already knows "sit" and "come here." He's working on potty training and is picking up fetch and leash walking like a champ. Cory loves being outdoors—whether it’s chasing leaves, exploring the yard, or just soaking up the sunshine with his doggy pal or humans.
At the end of the day, Cory transforms into the ultimate cuddlebug, curling up on your lap for a cozy nap. He’s a sweet, playful, and loving companion who's ready to bring joy to a forever family who has plenty of room for adventures—and snuggles.
Could Cory be the missing piece to your family? Come meet this little lovebug and see for yourself!

History: Danny is a super handsome puppy who arrived to rescue at just a few days old with his littermates and mom, Adora. They settled into rescue and unfortunately broke with ringworm :( The good news- they are doing really really well and on the mend so are now officially ready to find their forever home soon!
A Note from the Foster: Danny is the most snuggly, silly and lovable lumbering baby giant you'll ever meet! At just 5 months, he's 39lbs of giant paws and loose skin to squeeze on! 😍
He LOVES people of all sizes, genders AND ages; he doesn't discriminate. He just wants to be a lap dog who'll do everything possible to get as close to you as he's physically able to. At his foster home, he plays with the other dogs, but would be happy in a 1 pup home, too - more attention for him!
Danny has a heart of gold who wants to please. Surprisingly, he has been in foster care most of his life - we cannot explain it! He is a true catch who captures the hearts of everyone he meets. ❤️

A Note from the Foster: Hi, my name’s Eddie! I’m a chill little dude with a big heart, and I like to keep things peaceful—if my brother Erik gets too wild, I’m the one calming things down. I’m getting braver every day, and I’ll sit for a treat, but only if I’m in my kennel (my rules). I’m working on being potty trained, but I already know outside is where I handle most of my business. I love to play. I’ve learned how to play fetch, even with big sticks but I like to bring all of my toys to a secret spot. Don’t tell anyone. I’m also cool just minding my own business and doing my own thing. If you’re looking for a laid-back pup with a playful side, I might just be your guy!

A Note from the Foster: Meet Erik – The Ultimate Cuddle Buddy!
Erik is a lovable and affectionate Mini Australian Shepherd who will find your lap no matter where you sit! This sweet boy is a quick learner—he already knows how to sit for a treat and loves a good game of fetch. While he’s still working on potty training, he keeps his kennel dry through the night.
Don’t be fooled by his calm demeanor—Eric has a playful side! He loves wrestling with his bigger brother and running wild at the park. He gets along great with the resident dogs and is very food-motivated, making training a breeze. One of his most endearing qualities? He locks eyes with you when you talk to him, as if he truly understands every word.
Eric would make the perfect addition to any home, and we know he’d thrive with small children, becoming their best friend and loyal companion. If you’re looking for a loving, playful pup who will always be by your side, Eric is your guy!

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!

History: We recently welcomed a group of deserving dogs who needed help from overcrowded rural shelters in Texas. They are settling into their foster homes and doing well as they start their journey in finding their forever home soon!
A Note from the Foster: Gabe is a 16-week-old Shepherd-Chow mix and an absolute gem of a puppy. With his kind heart, soft curiosity, and easygoing personality, he’s the kind of dog that feels like he’s always been part of the family.
Agile and adaptable, Gabe goes with the flow—whether it's cuddling on the couch, daily walks or playing with the kids and our resident dog. He’s growing up in a busy foster home with two kids, two adults, and a furry sibling - he's thriving with the rhythm of family life. Gabe has the ears and coloring of a Chow with coat and body of a Shepherd.
Gabe is good with other dogs, loves when family friends and neighborhood kids visit. He is open to new experiences—stairs, playing, bath, cuddles. While not the bravest boy just yet, his sweet curiosity and calm demeanor make him easy to redirect and a joy to guide.
✨ What makes Gabe special?
– Sleeps well in his kennel
– Doing great with potty training (just stick to a schedule!)
– Low-maintenance, well-balanced energy
– Equally happy being in the mix or quietly hanging out nearby
– Loves daily walks, family time, and being part of the action—but never demands the spotlight
Gabe has the makings of a once-in-a-lifetime dog—and just needs the right people to keep helping him grow!

History: Harold is a super handsome puppy who arrived to rescue at just a few days old with his littermates and mom, Adora. They settled into rescue and unfortunately broke with ringworm :( The good news- they are doing really really well and on the mend so are now officially ready to find their forever home soon!
A Note from the Foster: Harold is a handsome black and white boy with unique double dew claws. He is a mellow guy who loves to play but also loves being a big lap dog. He adores affection from his people and is a big baby. Harold has met many dog friends, large and small, as well as cats and has done great with all of them. He would be content as an only pup, or great with siblings - human or 4 legged!
He does great hanging out in his kennel to eat and while we clean up without making a peep.
At about 35 lbs, he will be a medium to large sized dog. He's pretty quiet unless the other dogs in the house alert him to something to be vocal about, like the mail or a delivery.
Harold is very food motivated and will likely need to be fed separately from any other pets so he has his space to enjoy it.
Overall, Harold is an amazing, smart, sweet cuddle bug and the family that welcomes him will be so lucky to have him.

History: Moss is a handsome and adorable little kiddo who needed a second chance at a good life after being discarded by a commercial breeding facility. He arrived to rescue and was very sick as he was recovering from pneumonia that he had been living with for quite some time :( He has been on the mend and doing so much better with the help of our veterinary team and his committed foster family! He has his paws crossed to find his forever home soon!
A Note from the Foster: Moss, aka "Bob", has been with us for a week. He is a delightful puppy who loves people, kids, toys, other dogs and lots of cuddles. He sleeps with us, and sleeps through the night. He is not a fan of kennels and will protest. We are working on kennel training when we leave the house. He is barking when we leave but has quieted down by the time we return. I don't think he would be a good fit for a shared wall home. House training is a work in progress and he does wear a bellyband in the house. He loves going outside, so that is a plus on house training. He has mastered the stairs, but not getting up and down on the furniture. He loves being with his person and will cry if separated by a gate. He has not seen a cat, but enjoys meeting everyone he has seen, so don't think that would be a problem. He was diagnosed with pneumonia when he arrived and is on medication. He has been perfectly fine since he has come here!

History: I am North’s puppy and was born in rescue!
Momma North arrived to rescue from one of our partners in North Dakota and she was expecting a belly full of puppies! She has been doing wonderfully in rescue with her foster family on top of being a great momma to her litter of 9! Her puppies are pudgy and chunky friends who are each hoping to find forever homes of their own soon!
A Note from the Foster: I have had Rex for a short time and I am in love! I can already tell that this absolutely adorable little guy is smart, extra loving, cuddly and will be a very loyal companion. He is happy, healthy and a very chill puppy. He was born into a home with resident dogs and young children. He loves everyone and everything even my grouchy resident dog. He may just melt her heart and take away the grouchies….…. I can only hope :)
Rex slept in his kennel the first night with some protest but as soon as I put the kennel next to me he knew I was there and fell fast asleep. This was his first night without his siblings
If he sounds right for you, we would love to meet you. He is definitely a keeper.

History: I am Loretta’s puppy!
Loretta is a beautiful girl who found herself at an overcrowded rural shelter and was very pregnant. She had her puppies just days prior to coming to rescue and they settled into their foster home with us very quickly. Her puppies are stocky, pudgy kiddos with unique personalities of their very own!
Momma Loretta has been an amazing dog and has recently taken on 3 Great Dane puppies as a surrogate for Momma Lavender who had 15 puppies and could not produce enough milk for them all. Loretta will be ready for adoption once the Great Dane puppies are no longer needing milk. She is so patient with them and took them in as her own- she is the very best girl!
A Note from the Foster: Hi friends, I’m Ringo! I am the sweetest little guy there ever was, at least that’s what my foster parents tell me. I am generally a very chill pup, and am doing really well at potty training. I know to go potty when I am brought outside, and I go almost instantly (it’s just an instinct)! My foster home has a 2 year old lab, who I LOVE to learn from and play with. People tell me I am his shadow, because I am always following in his footsteps. There is also a cat that lives in my foster home, who I am very curious about, but I usually keep my space. I would say I do well with both dogs and cats! Meal time is my FAVORITE time of the day, I just can’t help myself! Well, aside from snuggling on the couch near my foster parents, because I really love that too (even if I snore sometimes). When you throw a toy for me, I hop like a bunny because I’m still getting used to these big legs and paws. I am still so little, but seem to know what the word “no” means, and do well with redirection. I hope you will consider adding me to your family! I know I will be the companion that you’ve been searching for.

History: Rudy is a super handsome puppy who arrived to rescue at just a few days old with his littermates and mom, Adora. They settled into rescue and unfortunately broke with ringworm :( The good news- they are doing really really well and on the mend so are now officially ready to find their forever home soon!
A Note from the Foster: Rudy is a large puppy weighing in at ~40lbs at 5 months old. He is a good boy who is completely kennel trained and potty trained! Although, while acclimating to his new home, he would submissive pee when startled. Additionally, he barked at the kids (3- & 6-year-olds) for the first few days, as he had previously not been around small children. He has adjusted to the kids and has settled into his new home wonderfully with little to know submissive tinkles.
Rudy is not considered high energy and does not vocalize a lot. He enjoys long snoozes in his foster mom's office while she works. He'll even follow her around when it's time to stretch or go for lunch. Being a large breed with a deeper bark, Rudy provides his foster mom with a sense of security and comfort.
All around, Rudy is a complete honey who enjoys people, dogs and belly rubs.

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: Tyler is a sweet pup! He can be shy upon meeting new people, but is full of fun & personality once he warms up to them!
He loves to play with his toys and foster brother, Maui! He is making great progress with his potty training and loves his treats related to his training! He does great in his kennel during the day and night. Ultimately he is a great dog and a snuggle bug!
We have loved having him in our home so far!

Hey there! I’m Vinny, a 16-pound brindle bundle of joy looking for my perfect home. With my playful spirit and snuggle-loving heart, I’m the best of both worlds—ready to zoom around one minute and curl up in your lap the next!
I love playing with toys, making new friends, and soaking up all the belly rubs I can get. But my favorite thing? Cuddling! If you’re looking for a pup who will keep you warm on chilly nights and always be by your side, I’m your guy.
I can’t wait to find a family who will love me as much as I’ll love them. Could that be you? Let’s meet and find out!
Hugs & Tail Wags,
Vinny

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!

History: Walnut is a handsome fella who arrived to rescue with the help of a partner organization of ours in rural North Dakota. He is full of life and SUCH a sweet boy who hopes to find his forever home soon!
A Note from the Foster: Walnut was so skinny when he came to rescue. Despite a hard start to life, he is the most loving, happy boy. He loves to be carried and snuggled. Given his short hair, likes a warm blanket and laying on you to nap. He comes when called and likes to follow me around. He chases toys and plays great with his foster brothers.

History: We recently welcomed an adorable litter of brindle pittie mix puppies to rescue from one of our partner organizations in North Dakota. They are beyond sweet puppies each with a unique personality of their very own!
A Note from the Foster: Wheeler Wheeeeee, that’s me! Sometimes my foster momma calls me Wheels too! I’m really beginning to learn a lot about this big world around me. It is so different from the rural area in ND that I came fromI have learned that I really enjoy playing with toys and dog chews while growling like a gargoyle; it makes me feel big and strong, especially when I’m playing tug-o-war. I REALLY enjoy treats! I am learning that if I sit I will get a treat even faster! I am also catching onto the command “lay” after “sit.” I have to say my most favorite thing to do in my free time is snuggle! OH MY GOODNESS, who knew snuggles could be so amazing! Whether I am curled in my own bed alone with my blanket, with another dog in the house, or with my foster momma; I LOVE TO SNUGGLE! Sometimes when she is in bed my foster momma lets me under the blankets and it is just so warm and cozy!
I am being such a good boy and working REALLY hard on my potty training! I know that when I need to go outside I should go get their attention so I will usually go paw at my foster momma or just head to the door we usually use for going outside and she just follows me and offers to let me out.. When I have to be in my crate or playpen while the humans are away at work I am really good at respecting my area and keeping it nice and clean; I know as soon as they get home they will take me outside to go potty.
I am doing really well socializing with other dogs, both young/older and smaller/bigger; I like to play with everyone as long as they play nice with me. If I feel like I do not want to play anymore I just separate myself from the group or go ask foster momma to pick me up for snuggles. We all eat in our crates (this way we mind our manners) so I know when it comes time for my meals, and food is being scooped into our bowls, I run right for my crate and wait so excitedly for my food! Sometimes I bark in excitement! I am doing so well at my feeding times that I have started to be allowed to eat out of my crate. I finish up my meal and wait patiently for everyone else to finish and then go inspect their bowls. There are also 3 cats in my foster home! These feline things are all pretty interesting because none of them act the same, but now I just sniff them and let them be when they come by. One of them rubs on me from time to time, it’s just strange so I just stand there. Occasionally if they run from me I will give them a little chase, just for a little game, I don’t want to hurt them I just want to see if they will play. They do have some pretty fun toys to play with too!
My foster momma thinks I would do good in a home with or without other animals; she says I am the perfect combination of energy and snuggles. I have met kids of all ages at some of the CHDR events that I have attended with my foster momma! I really enjoy everyone of all ages! If anyone lets me, I love giving kisses on the face, or I will settle for cleaning your fingers for you too!
I really hope that you will want to get to know me more! Keep an eye out, I love going to Coco’s events! Come see me!
