About COCOA

  • Current Size: 35 Pounds

Meet Miss Cocoa, who is a Chocolate Lab Mix with beautiful golden eyes.  Right now (9/8/20), Cocoa weighs around 35 lbs and is about 5 1/2 months old. 

This is Cocoa’s story – A family adopted Cocoa from us in June.  Through no fault of her own, however, Cocoa was returned due to some emotional issues with one of the children in the family. Things were just not working out… Cocoa has been back with her original foster family now for about 2 1/2 weeks, and, after the initial upheaval and shock of leaving her adoptive family, she is doing great.  

Cocoa is still a young Lab pup who is full of energy, as well as lots and lots of love for her foster family.  She gets along wonderfully with her foster siblings.  She is not an "alpha dog" at all and, in fact, will defer to the other dogs, making her an easy fit relative to other dogs in the household. 

Cocoa also loves to ride in the car, play outside and do lots of exploring.  With all the drastic changes in her life so recently, she does need reassuring and will need lots of cuddling and loving from her new family.  She is also doing fairly well with house training, but, again due to the recent changes in her life, she has an occasional accident.  Time, patience and guidance will be needed from her new family to teach and reassure Cocoa to allow her to blossom into the amazing dog she is meant to be.  She is a sweetheart and deserves that!!  

In short, Cocoa is a wonderful young lady who needs a family 100% committed to her, no question, to provide for her needs with love, understanding and reassurance.  Based on Cocoa’s recent experience/history, for her forever home, we are seeking an active family without children.  

If you are interested in committing to Cocoa – to provide her a loving, responsible home for her whole life – please register on our website, www.safeatlast.net (by clicking Register on the left-hand side of our homepage).  Once you receive your password on your email account, please log back on to our website to complete the Safe at Last online adoption application (by clicking Forms/Applications on the left-hand side of our homepage).   If, after preliminary review of your application, your home appears to be a good match for Cocoa, a volunteer will be in touch to commence the review process.  Our process is very straightforward but does involve the phone interview, reference checks and a home assessment.  An adoption fee of $425, and a refundable $35 spay/neuter deposit (required by NYS law), also apply.

Cocoa is being fostered in Worcester, NY (Otsego County).  Approved adopters are required to go to the foster home to meet Cocoa & complete the adoption.  Finally, you must submit the Safe at Last online adoption application and be approved prior to meeting Cocoa.  If you do not submit the adoption application, we cannot consider you.

Thank you for choosing to rescue and for your interest in Cocoa.
