Coco - Cairn Terrier and Schnauzer Dog for Adoption in Otis, Oregon

Check out our new rescue dog up for adoption! Dont mind her slightly disheveled hairdo as she will be getting groomed shortly. I think it just adds to her cute, scruffy look though!

Meet miss Coco . We are guessing her breed to be cairn terrier or schnauzer mix based on the wiry texture of her coat. She is 2 years old and 23lbs so a perfect smaller/medium size girl. Coco is in a foster home with other dogs and cats and doing well. Her foster mom reports she mostly ignores the other dogs and would do fine as an only dog or with a mellow dog that doesnt want to play much or has a gentle play style. She ignores the cats in the house so should coexist with cats well but we always recommend slow intros with any new pet.

Coco is a very friendly, sweet girl that would love to get out on some walks. She is a lower energy girl in the house but medium energy when going on walks. Coco does think its a fun game to play catch me if you can off leash so we recommend only fenced yards/leash walks unless you plan to do some dedicated training on recall to keep her safe. She does very well on car rides so far and enjoys sitting on someones lap for longer trips.

Coco is spayed, up to date on vaccines, current on flea control, and negative on her fecal/ heartworm test. If you feel you are the right fit for coco please apply on figzdogrescue.org.

Located at her foster home near Lincoln City, Oregon.
