Koko

Name:

Koko

Breed:

Miniature Pinscher

Gender:

Female

Weight:

15 lbs

Age:

10 months

Koko is a 1 year old 20 lb Miniature Pinscher mix who has an adorable spock ear and docked tail. She is a little shy initially, but warms up quickly. Koko is an athletic gal and in true Min Pin fashion is playful and has a fun loving energy. She is a great adventure partner and enjoys her daily pack walks with the other dogs in her foster home. We think she would enjoy having another dog in the home or some doggie friends to have regular playdates with. Koko rides well in the car and she’s food motivated, which will make training a breezy. The best type of home for Koko would be someone who has a love for the Min Pin breed and who can commit to a little training and some regular outings with their new furry family member.

Tillie loves other dogs and would love to have another doggie friend in her new home, or some dogs in the neighborhood she can meet up with regularly. She is going to mature in the large breed range when full grown. We aren’t sure on her breed, maybe Akita/Pittie/Sheperd combo? She’s currently 30 lbs at 5 months old, so guessing 60 lbs plus range.

Roxie is such a sweet little gal and is well mannered in the home. She is friendly with other dogs and new people she meets and is housebroken. Roxie loves prancing through the grass!
