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: Snorty is an affectionate boy that loves snuggles, food and more snuggles. His favorite spot is curled up on your lap for some ear scratches or tummy rubs. He has yet to meet a person that he does not want to cuddle or give kisses to. He is friendly with the kids in his foster home (ages 7 and 11). This boy is a total lover! Toys, especially those that crinkle or squeak are fascinating! He also enjoys tugging on a rope toy.
Potty training has been going great with a schedule. Snorty goes outside and quickly does his business. He thinks those treats are pretty great and will work hard to earn some extra yummy kibble. He knows come and sit. Snorty is working on kennel, down, shake and leash manners. So far, Snorty does well walking alongside his foster Mom, but does get underfoot sometimes.
The kennel has been clean and dry during his time in his foster home both at night and while his fosters are away during the work day. Snorty sleeps quietly in his kennel at night after a few minutes of whining/barking.
This affectionate boy is looking for a family to call his own to help him continue to learn and grow! If you are looking for a cuddlebug to snuggle and can provide him with a comfy dog bed, Snorty is the guy for you!
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!
