Coco Roo the Boxer/Retreiver

Hi ! It’s been almost a year – and way too long before sending you an update on the dog we got last January – you called her CocoRoo, we just call her Coco (but she has many nicknames…usually CocoBean or CocoMo or CocoNut). She’s adjusted well to our household – she loves our rabbit but still doesn’t like cats – and there are a lot of strays in the neighborhood to chase out of the yard – which makes her very happy. She runs like the wind, loves to chase the Frisbee, go to the dog park, ride in our boat or ride in the jeep with us. She loves the water and has enjoyed a swim or two in Lake Conway! We’re still working on the leash walking and over excitable door greetings, but she’s getting better. She’s also a great watch dog – protecting us from lizards, bugs and anything that moves. Although she wouldn’t hurt a soul, her bark says otherwise and strangers hesitate at the door. That’s a good thing! Coco has grown a lot – she’s up to 70 pounds and her vet thinks she’s full grown now. Luckily, she loves a bath and often just sits in the tub waiting to see if she’s going to get one. Her fur has gotten thick and healthy. We love our spoiled mutt. Thanks for bringing us together! Her energy is perfect for our active life. . Thankful this Thanksgiving for our furry family member, Mark & Ellen
