Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a dedicated foster-based dog rescue in Massachusetts, recently shared that Coco, a sweet six-year-old Shih Tzu and Poodle mix weighing 25 pounds, is still looking for his forever family. Coco’s rescue story started with a bittersweet transition when his previous owner, unfortunately, entered hospice care. In addition to finding himself in need of a new home, Coco’s fur was severely matted at that time. Luckily, Sandy Paw Rescue Inc. was there to give him the shave he needed and connected him with a loving foster home. According to the Rescue, it has now been over a month, and “Coco is still waiting for an application!”

Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a dedicated foster-based dog rescue in Massachusetts, recently reported that Nixon, a remarkable young dog with a difficult past, is still searching for his forever home after over five months. Nixon’s story began when he was found wandering the streets of Texas at around one year of age. When his owners were contacted to come get him, they learned that per the city ordinance, they were required to have him neutered. They reportedly responded, “You can keep him, we only got him to breed,” and effectively abandoned him. Luckily, Sandy Paws Rescue Inc. stepped in to save Nixon from becoming another statistic. Since entering their care, Nixon has spent some time in a board-and-train program in Texas and is now living with a foster family in Massachusetts.
