Pit Bull Terrier Dogs Available for Adoption in Mount Gilead, Ohio

CoCo is 2-1/2 yrs old. Coco loves to go for walks, knows several commands, and was housetrained prior to coming to the shelter. Coco did live with a smaller dog prior to coming to the shelter and did fine with him---although the previous owner could not tell us how she was with other dogs. We require meet and greets with any new housemate so bring your dog along when you come to meet her.

Coco hates being in her kennel here at the shelter. She prefers to be in the company of a human and getting significant amounts of attention.
Coco may have some separation anxiety---prior to being surrendered she was never left alone. So an adopter will need to give her time to relax and get used to her new home before being left for long periods of time.

Coco will be spayed, vaccinated, heartworm tested and microchipped prior to going to her new home.
**we were told she has met children and cats and was fine.....BUT she never lived with them so we have no direct history for how she would behave.

If you are interested in her please respond to this listing OR call us, the Morrow County Dog Shelter at 419-946-1747

Meeting and application are required as part of the adoption/approval process.
