Meet CoCo, a cute female Airedale looking for the right home.  For the past two years Coco had been living in a home with a person who had disabilities as well as a special needs child. They didn't have a lot of time for her and she turned into a wild child. She never sat on command and the former owner thought there was something wrong with her.  

For the past several months she has been living with two adults and dogs trying to learn the ropes of being a good pack member.  She has made some progress but does have more training ahead of her. Coco will need an alpha person in her life.  She has learned to sit, walks ok on lead but still needs work and is good with older children and cats.  She loves her humans and is very sweet.  She is housebroken, does not care to be groomed and does guard her food from the other dogs.  She likes to play rough with her buddies so we would do better with a larger male companion but no small dogs.  

Coco's new home will need to have physical fence as she has been known to be a runner and if given the opportunity, she will run.  If you are an approved home and you feel you can help this young girl go from a diamond in the rough to a real gem, please contact Vickie Brinkley at 319-493-9919 or email at vicron1975@mchsi.com.
