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: Pal is a sweet and easy going guy. Doesn’t seem to even notice our cats or our dogs. But as soon as a human walks in the room, big or small his tail is wagging and he gets a big grin on his face. He likes to plop right on top of you and get chest rubs.
Pal came from the 2024 Out of the Cold rescue mission in North Dakota. We didn’t know anything about him and thought it may be a slow intro to home life but he settled right in.
Day two he started sniffing out all the lost balls in our yard and we quickly realized he absolutely loves to play fetch. He gets a little worried when other dogs are near his toys so we take him out separate to play fetch.
We were told his owner worked on oil rigs and couldn’t provide enough time and attention for him since he was gone so often, so he lovingly decided to surrender him at the event so he could have a better life.
He is crate trained and potty trained. He’d prefer to sleep in bed with you though.
Pal would do best in a home with a yard and someone to take him out to play a couple times a day and be around to keep him company in his second chapter.
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!
